Dreaming that an engagement ring doesn’t fit - dream meaning with inherited lore
This may hold a feeling of awkwardness, or a wish to see whether the promise feels right for you.
You try on the ring as you’re proposed to, but it doesn’t fit. It’s loose or tight, and you feel flustered as you watch your partner’s reaction.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a proposal and a ring have sometimes been read as a promise in a relationship. A ring that doesn’t fit may be read as a sign that the promise or pace of the relationship doesn’t quite feel right yet, but there’s no need to take it as a definite decision about the future. (This draws on a folk interpretation that compares an engagement ring to a promise in a relationship.)
Through the mind: A scene like this may come to mind when the other person’s expectations feel out of step with your circumstances or pace. It may be a chance to think about what you can comfortably agree to right now.
