It's not what it's sounds like I just wanna promise her that we will get married and be happy. She's often told me she dreams about our wedding and I do to. I know we'll make it. Should i buy a ring even though I'm young? We've been together a year already and still going strong!!!!!!

Why not buy her a promise ring. To show her the relationship is that serious to you. Your still young and a lot of people will not take you serious and by rights I know as hard as this is and as much as you don't want to hear it. It is true.
But get the promise ring, tell her you love her and one day wish for her to be your wife and when you can legally marry her with out parents permission you will buy her an engagement ring.
BTW.. don't listen to all the negative responses your getting either they....
1. Have never been in love.
2. Forget what young love is like
3. Are bitter.
Follow your own heart, but I still stand by the promise ring its the right thing step for your age :)

I agree with everyone else. 15 is way to young to know who you want to marry. I'm not just saying that to sound mean, but i've been where you are before. When I was 15, I had been dating my boyfriend for a year, and before that we had known eachother for about 5 years. He bought me a promise ring and promised one day we would get married. I believed every word of it, and for the next 4 years we both talked about getting married. Until of course, we went to college and started experiencing life. We ended up breaking up. It was rough, but it was a good lesson. 15 is too young to know what you will want for the rest of your life. I'm now 22 and engaged to a great guy I've been with for almost 2 yrs. I'd say you could get a promise ring, but don't promise marriage. Maybe promise to love her and be there for her no matter where life takes you. Good luck with everything. Maybe in a few years you will have a better idea of what you want. Chances are, if you need to ask others for their opinion, you aren't ready.

I wouldn't suggest to get engaged at this age but what a about getting her a promise ring?
Definition of a Promise Ring:
A promise ring or friendship ring is a ring given to a boyfriend or girlfriend, to promise to be committed in a serious relationship, usually a precursor to marriage. These indicate that serious courting is under-way. It can be given as a symbol that a couple does not feel that it is an appropriate time to consider engagement or marriage but are serious about each other and their relationship.
A promise ring can be worn on any finger on the left or right hand, although ring fingers are far preferred. Most often it is the left ring finger, but due to engagement confusion, the right ring finger is finding acceptance in today's world.
I think this would be perfect in your situation. A promise ring doesn't have to be a huge diamond ring. How about a little plain silver band?
Something like this:

You can get plain rings at Wal-Mart, KMart and most of the stores that carry jewlery.
Good luck and congratulation that you have already found the one that you're gonna be with for the rest of your life! I think it's so great.

Ok.
I know I'm going to sound like an asshole for saying this, but you are way to young to even think about marriage.
A promise ring is a good way to tell her you promise to be only hers, but not a wedding. I'm 20 and I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years, and we always talked about it too, but being in your parent's house, not having to pay for anything, makes being married seem really easy and fun! Which I'm not saying marriage isn't good, but you need more time to experience life, rather than hold yourself back. Make a different commitment, Go to the same college, plan something different than marriage, the divorce rate for people under the age of 20 is 47%, and thats not good.
Good Luck and stay sensible!

15 is young but you cant help who you love or when. i suggest a promise ring and then when your out of high school if you still feel the same way and you are still together then go for it. im only 20 years old and i just recently got married and i have never been happier. so dont listen to anyone telling you to wait until you are 25 or thirty you cant put a time or age on love.

You have a long way to go, and many many years of growing ahead of you. I say best to let her know you feel the same way and come up with a plan, get out of high school, get out of college, if you two are still together then, you both are in a better place to keep your promises to one another. Why don't you set a realistic goal - girlfriend, I can not wait to take you to Junior and Senior prom! That sounds like a more realistic goal at 15 then marriage.

Okay well you could always buy her a promise ring, I got one after I was dating my BF for 2 years, and then we got engaged after 3 1/2 years... but we are also 23 yrs old..... Why don't you get her a promise ring, a promise that you will get married one day when your done with college!!!! I think she will like that and it will be a little bong between you too, but your not ready to get engaged... You can find a pretty little ring, Mine is a thin band wiht 5 little diamonds across it, its beautiful......

definitely too young, but if you're looking to get her something nice, i like the idea of a nice necklace or bracelet. promise rings are cheesy. Just get her something from the heart. You guys have your whole lives! I know you don't think so, but a lot could change--even in the next 3-5 years. Just focus on having fun and being happy, and not so much on the rest of your lives!!!!!!!! you're too young!

I think it is a good idea to get her a promise ring. My boyfriend and I have only been together for six months and he is getting me a promise ring for a christmas. We have made promises to each that we are going to be together forever. So...yea I definitly think you should get her a promise ring because that says that you wanna be with her forever and eventually marry her someday in the future.

ummm, wait a few more years so you can buy her the ring she really wants. if you want her know that you are serious about the future than making a promise is good enough. you dont have to buy a ring for that. if she is pressuring you for aring than maybe she is just alittle to materialistic for you. if you want the ring, than i say wait, save up some more money so by the time your 18-20, if your still together, you can buy the ring of her dreams.
