Ah well, if that is your intent, why don't you say so directly.
"W, I know you place importance on the symbolism of our rings. I want to give you my ring to hold for now. My removing it represents giving us both the space and freedom we need to see what we each want from the future. My giving it to you represents my conscious choice to let go of trying to control the outcome of this process and demonstrating to us both that I do not want a marriage R with you unless we both know that it is something you have freely chosen."
