beta provider 

A foolish male who works long and hard to financially support a woman who, ultimately, does not love nor respect him and is not sexually attracted to him.
Ned was a idiot for being a beta provider for Becky and for thinking a woman like her ever loved him. She cheated on him and now he's stuck paying alimony, while she rides the alpha cock carousel.

Lick and a Promise 

This is originally London slang and quite an old expression; its first recorded use is in 1838 in an English newspaper (The Era) where it was used to describe a uninterested or half-assed attempt at any sort of task or job. Gradually its use changed until, by the time The Era closed in 1939, it was used and still is used to describe a perfunctory wash, less thorough that even HF-AGBA, a BBA or an airplane bath.
Malcolm’s really stinking this morning, I don’t think he even bothered with a lick and a promise.

Beta Male Provider 

The man a woman chooses to fund her life and provide financial security. Typically a man who she feels she can control.

Promise Ring

A promise ring is a sign of commitment between two people. Often, it is the first token of a serious relationship that is just developing, but exchanging promise rings can equally be a symbol of a joint commitment which is not related to love. A promise ring can mean many things: I promise to always love you.
''I want to marry you in the future, and I want to show you how serious I am about you. I give you this promise ring as a symbol of that''.
