Engagement ring
Marriage to me wasn't very important, I think that you can be together with someone without having a piece of paper and ring telling you to be together.
That being said I didn't want a ring at all because I don't like jewellery and I would love my husband with or without one. My husband got me one anyway, which we picked out and it was inexpensive (cheap).
I've seen so many girls say that if their man didn't get them a huge, expensive ring, they'd say no. I just don't understand why the ring matters at all, it's not like the ring is what's going to make or break the marriage.
I'm just curious to see what people people choose.

3 AntwortenI think history and sentimental value says a lot more than a price tag. Were I to propose, I'd rather give the unlucky female my mother's old engagement ring which I believe would be more of a compliment than an expensive new one, since one that has been in the family means that I am bestowing a great honor as well as invitation to her to be a part of my family and possess something we hold dear to us. I'm not sure what the females would think though, but anyone who thinks their marriage's success banks on the ring probably shouldn't be getting married in the first place.

1 AntwortenI have a 400-500 dollar ring and I love it. I just like having something to look down at and remind me of how lucky I am. =)

Idc if it's expensive or cheep, it's what it resembles that's more important to me. [spoiler]i prefer not a expensive one tho xD [/spoiler]

I bought my wife a $12,000 dollar ring... but I made her wait 6.5-7 years... I may have taunted her about our lack of engagement, too...

2 AntwortenThis is my ring and my mom's together. I'm not positive of color/clarity but I know her center stone is 1 ct. My marquise is 2.20 ct which is larger than I wanted but it was on sale for $500. Moissanite or forever brilliant moissanite is a very affordable way to go without sacrificing size/style.

3 AntwortenI got my wife the most expensive ring I could afford. Unfortunately, the most expensive ring I could afford was pretty shitty. But she didn't care one bit and still won't let me upgrade the diamond after all these years. She says it's perfect.

1 AntwortenI proposed to the (god I -blam!-ing hope so) love of my life over the xmas holiday. I bought her a mid range ring. -blam!- the 3 months salary shit, I need motorcycle parts! I bought her a vintage ring from 1930, 1/2 carat diamond with 18k white gold. She honestly loves it. If the ring were more expensive, I'd have gotten it for her anyway, but I knew it was the right ring. And made my choice because she's gonna be wearing it for the rest of her life. Or so I hope. :)

Honestly, I don't really care what kinda ring I get. Heh.

1 AntwortenI am a girl waiting and wondering if I am about to be proposed to so this hits home for me!! I think every situation is different, I think sometimes you say you want a cheap ring so you won't be disappointed and sometimes it is because money is tight and you don't want to be selfish. I know it is cool to say you want a cheap ring but I will admit I want a pretty nice ring. It doesn't need to be the biggest but I do want something I can show off. Here is what it means, it is about commitment. If you show your mom a cheap ring it implies different things. Plus this ring will become part of me and something maybe I will hand down one day so quality is important. I know this will sound greedy to some people, sorry! :)

1 AntwortenI don't know much about engagement rings but I never liked the look of gold or silver. I mean, I don't want to buy a cheap ring but I always seem to gravitate towards copper and brass

You wrap spaghetti around her finger and wait for it to harden.

12 AntwortenSaved up for a good while. My thoughts are I wanted to get her a ring that fit her the best and not be constrained by money (within reason). Proposed last week and she loved the ring. Also wait are the dollar amounts for average and expensive..?

I just spent 8,000$ on one. Think that is pretty average. The one I wanted to buy was 24,000.

1 AntwortenI bought a pretty decent ring for my wife. Funniest part is neither of us had any idea that she got a wedding ring as well as the engagement ring... So she still doesn't have one of those xD

Me and my wife have 30 dollar rings.we've been together for 9 years.don't think it's the cost,but how much u love each other

2 AntwortenIsn't there two rings? An engagement [i]and[/i] a wedding ring? I thought the whole point of the expensive ring originated with the woman being able to sell it off to get by on if the husband dies/leaves. I could be wrong on that, though. My wife just wanted us to have simple matching bands with a heart-knot design repeated around it. She'd rather have had a house than an expensive wedding/ring.

I've saved up about $3500 to buy an engagement ring. Should get me about .7 carats. Most of my married friends have spent $7000+, so I feel like a bit of a cheapskate...then I'm like "wait, wat. $3500 is crazy expensive"
