Soon. Just looking at rings right now. I promised my gf we'd be engaged by the end of the year and she asked me last night at dinner if I'd looked at rings yet. Le sigh. She has expensive taste.burnzz wrote:

I was under the impression it should be a question asked by one person to the other, not something you gradually negotiate into
Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
Get her a CZ. She'll never know
find a loose stone (in 1/2 what you want to spend overall range) which would be 3/4 - 1 ct.
then, get her involved in the mount - i've found, while you don't save alot of $, you get her involved.
which is priceless in the long run . . .

Pretty sure they're indistinguishable other than under a microscope.
EDIT: Never mind, I was thinking of moissanite.

Well, we've been together for over five years and lived together for 2 1/2 so it's not like it would be a surprise.FloppY_ wrote:

I can see presenting her with a loose stone, but why so small? The one in that pic is 1.25 ct.burnzz wrote:

I hope if/whenever I find one she will have sence enough not to value a ring over our feelings
I can find better things to spend a fat wad of cash on

why might I ask.
It's not like your rolling in cash, am I right?
Well, we've been to like 18 weddings over the past three years, all but two being her friends. She's been patient with me finishing school but now she's getting antsy. Her parents are wealthy, have wealthy friends, and she'll (meaning me) be judged based on how the ring looks. Yes, it's completely stupid but it is the way it is.FloppY_ wrote:

I always think the obsession with huge diamond rings is a little ridiculous. Not to mention a huge diamond looks tacky as fuck.

She'll never say it but she most definitely is in competition with her childhood best friend. We just went to her wedding two weeks ago and it was held at the country club they grew up at. The girls father probably dropped a half million on the stupid thing. Her dress alone cost $18k.FloppY_ wrote:

If you want a good ring, make it a really shiny one.
So everybody knows your wife is married.
I've been driving a mid-sized car, never hurt anyone.
for a fatty you're a serious intellectual lightweight.
