my promise ring is on my left ring finger signifying purity. it was given to me and mine means i have to stay pure until marriage. there is other kinds out there though. boyfriend and girlfriend could swap promise rings to be true to one another and not lie/cheat to eachother. it all depends on the giver of the ring.

it really just depends on who gave it to them.. a parent can give their children a promise ring, which means they promise to stay a virgin until marriage. and then a boyfriend/girlfriend can give their significant other a promise ring that can either mean to stay true to them, or save their virginity for them. it just depends really.

Promise rings can stand for lots of things. Some of the most common things they stand for would be:
-Parents giving their son/daughter a promise ring, representing a promise to do well on something/not lie/etc. The usual thing parents give their children promise rings for are to promise to stay pure until marriage.
-Boyfriends/girlfriends can get them to either promise engagement later in life, to be faithful to one another, or to save their virginity for each other.
-Friends can get promise rings to promise that they'll always stay friends/be good to each other.
Really, they can stand for any promise -- Big or small. They're a really nice way to keep that promise and signify how important it is. (:

About the first post, the ring a parent gives a child to remain pure until marriage is called a purity ring. I suppose they can also be called promise rings.. but the second definition below is right.

A promise ring can stand for anything.
A father and/or mother can give a promise ring to their daughter to stay pure until marriage. It's a promise from you to them, that you would remain a virgin until marriage in other words.
A boyfriend could give his girlfriend a promise ring and the meaning of it, would be for her to stay faithful and true to him. Meaning, you would be promising him to never cheat on him.
Hope I helped you understand it better!
