Single Ring aka Singelringen
The concept of the Single Ring as a means to announce one’s status as single reminded me immediately of an episode from Sex and the City entitled “A Woman’s Right to Shoes,†a delightfully wicked take on the phrase “a woman’s right to choose.â€
In the episode, Carrie attends a friend’s baby shower, which forces her to leave her beloved $485 Manolos at the doorstep because of the hosts’ desire to leave their home pristine from all possible miniscule filth brought in by their guests’ footwear.
To her horror, Carrie finds her shoes missing after the baby shower. Her host, played by an adult Tatum O’Neal, is aghast by the $485 price tag, offers to pay only a certain amount, and chides Carrie for her frivolous purchase decision as compared with her mature lifestyle as a married woman.
Carrie goes into a tailspin of doubt and self-examination, and in the end, sends an invitation to the married host to buy for her the $485 shoes since she was registered at Manolo Blahnik—in celebration of her marriage to herself.
True, being single will be riddled with uncertainty and misgiving, but you will be rewarded with confidence, wisdom and power.
Single Celebrities Celebrities who have proclaimed their desire not to marry include Oprah Winfrey, who has steadfastly stuck by her word and man Stedman Graham.
Cameron Diaz admitted to Ellen Degeneres that she is a “commitment phobe,†and likened her 4 your relationship with Justin Timberlake as “kind of married.â€
Controversial Angelina Jolie has firmly asserted that she and Brad Pitt are committed to their children, not to each other, thus, doing away with the need to get married.
Brad Pitt’s pal George Clooney is also adamant about staying single and scot-free.
Twice divorced Oscar winner Halle Berry has declared resolutely, “I will not marry again. There is no need.” However, she does want to have a child, but not necessarily in a married state.
But some celebrities do change their mind. Sandra Bullock always thought that marriage was not something that would suit her. However, when she was faced with a dangerously injured boyfriend after a racing accident, and realizing that she had no legal rights over his medical care, Sandra Bullock decided that she wanted to get hitched with all the accompanying legal ties and binds.
The Single Ring Although the Single Ring may also proclaim your availability for dating, and even has a sense of romantic notion put into it by having a silver half-circle that can be completed into a full circle by another Single Ring, I think that the absence of any ring or the presence of a ring will do just as well.
I think the best reason to choose to buy the Single Ring would be the same as Carrie’s—to announce a marriage to oneself.
So whether it’s proclaimed by a pair of shoes or a turquoise silver Single Ring or your mere singular sensational presence, the single status must be tried at least once in your life.
And whether male or female, in the event that you do choose the Single Ring to proclaim your current single status to the whole world, email singelringenph@gmail.com or text 0918.9244621 for orders or inquiries here in the Philippines.
Moreover, on the inside of each ring is inscribed a unique registration number that you could input into the Singelringen website, which connects you with singles all over the world.
