This is correct for Muslims and Christians in some cultures.
Because the bride and groom will not live together until marriage but will begin the process of buying a house/apartment, furnishing it, etc., there needs to be a legal contract in place that states who gets what in the event that the engagement dissolves.
Most of the time people sign this contract at the same time that they put their wedding bands on their right hand, signifying that they are officially engaged. I feel like all of this makes the idea of getting married very real and focuses on the practical and that this is positive.
TL; DR: the dude is probably taken. I would not date.
