    You wear it on your right ring finger. Not your left. You left is for the actual engagment ring and wedding band. If you wear it on you left people think your engaged. Trust me. I wear mine on my right hand, but I'll be getting my engagment ring with in the next year. Congrats by the way. :)

    This ring is a promise that he will love you always and forever. The next step would be a engagement ring. You would put it on your ring finger just like you would with an engagement ring. That is awesome, good luck to you both!

    I have one and I wear it on my left ring finger - same as a wedding ring. Also if it's one with hearts on it, the pointed end of the heart is supposed to pointed towards your hand to signify that you are taken.

    And congrats!

    Left ring finger. It symbolizes you are 'taken'. Once I got my engagement ring, I moved it to my right ring finger.

    Left. Any ring that represents a relationship goes on your left hand.

    Right hand only. It's not an engagement ring.

    You wear it on your engagement ring finger, which is the ring finger on your left hand. I am a jeweler.
