Personally I dont deal with diamonds, its too bloody a history and it feeds into the power structure to purchase them. Sure there are "conflict free diamonds" and there are those created in a lab also. But to me, the whole status symbol of having a diamond ring meaning you are more worthy or more high class because "look someone wanted to marry me"... It's propaganda that was propagated by Marilyn Monroe, a known victim of the monarch program, in the 1950s, and it is all too obvious that the media placed her as the spokesperson for the advertising mission which convinced every western woman that she needs a diamond ring. There are plenty of gorgeous and energetically powerful stones that dont carry the same history and also dont cost very much, meaning more wealth accrued for your family and your children's future. If it were me, I would make it clear to my King that I am not interested in all of that (in fact I already have). But either way, I dont see why a 52 diamond ring equates to making it official... what if he just wants to give you a ring and jump the broom?
I've been married on paper twice, and my King has been once. I think because of this we both realize the lesser importance of a paper marriage and the greater importance of a soul connection. As long as that soul bond is there, there's really no need for the paper. And if the soul bond is not there, the paper marriage will not last anyways. I told my King, if he wanted to get married on paper, I would. I told him I would go to Mars if he wanted to go. I would do anything to make him happy, as he does for me too. But good thing he is not interested in going to Mars and for now seems uninterested in paper marriage. I did tell him I might change my last name, once we have children, so that we all have the same last name. But then I also told him that my child's legal name is going to be "LEGAL NAME" or "REDACTED REDACTED" or something like that, that is if I get them birth certificates at all because I might just keep them off the grid as long as possible. Legal names dont mean that much. But if you wanted your King's last name, marriage is not the only way to do that. Changing your legal name is pretty simple and usually just requires a name request form submitted to your local government. So there are plenty of options for you.
But why does babylon recognizing the marriage make it official? What power does babylon hold, that the state recognition is more meaningful than the recognition you give to each other?
And your King said he thinks he could spend the rest of his life with you.. well that's nice I guess? Haha the phrasing of it would make me raise an eyebrow.. like you think but you don't know? Yet I've come to the conclusion that nothing at all in life is permanent, and to never expect a relationship to last til death. If it does, beautiful. If not, fine, life moves on. I try not to put any expectations on a relationship at all, and accept that one day it will end, one way or the other one of you will leave the other one even if it is in death. So that means to make the most of every moment spent together and never take it for granted that the person will always be there. The future will unfold as it is meant to, and making promises or asking others to make promises, it seems dishonest to me when we know there are so many twists and turns in life and we can never predict what will happen. I would rather choose every day to be with a person, and know he is doing the same with me, than to set it in stone and force each other to adhere to a promise made.
