Count the people who took the time and effort to answer your question, and you did not leave a a single comment in response. Even if you did not think any were a "Best Answer", you should at least say "thank you". The English phrase for that is "common courtesy".

To stick TO something and to stick WITH something are both "correct"phrasal verbs. I would say the collocation is stronger for "to stick to a promise"... I think the difference is when the object is percieved as a single event/point in time (a promise) versus, for example, a course of study or some other process that is a PERIOD of time... For example, Studying English can be touch so stick with it. However, it is equally valid to say: Studying English can be tough to stick to it. ( That fact that they are both possible doesn't disprove what I was saying above because the speaker could be seeing "studying English" as a point (something she did when she was in university) and also as a process (something that nevers seem to end) This is not answer, merely grist for the mill. Others might disagree and they wouldn't be wrong.
