Dollar amount?
 

So the one factor you left out of this thread was a dollar amount. So give us an idea what was spent for this ring? That will also help in deciding what this ring represents.

I mean if you spent a sizable amount of $$$$ on this ring, then I would want to get my money's worth our of it. Otherwise you will have to go much bigger for a better ring to represent an engagement ring. You would be setting the bar pretty high, and setting yourself up.

Don't worry jerry its not in the 4 digits, id rather not say what i spent but its somewhere between an D8 and a Mp9 kit :lol:



I know she is gonna love it, although the only hard part will be telling both of our families that its "just a ring" im sure you guys know how them old women like to jump to conclusions :lol: We'll prolly call ahead before we go to either of the houses to tell them that way they won't be let down. I know the girly won't be let down because she said she would kill me if i ever asked her on a holiday or birthday.:neutral: so atleast thats settled.

No no
 

Yea for some thats a definite NO NO. They want that special day to be solitary with nothing else going on to interfer or take away from the moment. Gheeeze why do they have to make everything so darnned complicated. I like the fact that my wife looks at things from a more simplistic view. I am always telling her that I am just a man, and that I do not read minds. We try our best to keep things down to Earth. Good luck with your adventure.

So, what happend when she opened her present?

updates! updates!! hope it went well....not in the doghouse are ya? :whistle:

No answer???
 

No answer:eyes:, so she must have shoved her high heal into his eye:gasp:.

It could be read either way but hopefully this means it went well :wink:

she loved it of course and im definetly not in the dog house.... here is a picture i grabbed of it in the car while she was holding the camera bag.

Well???
 

So are you engaged or not? Just posting a pic of the ring doesn't tell us anything. Did you pop the question, or did you wiggle your way out of it with some lame excuse? I don't get why people are so afriad of getting married. You win some you lose some. Getting married is not the end of your life ya know. You just have to make sure you choose correctly. Sometimes it takes more than one try to get it right. We would all love to get married once and be done with it, but that is just not being realistic these days. People change and even some are not who they say they are.

I used to think marriage was not that big of a deal. That was before I got married. Someone pointed out to me that everyone is different, also my parents said it should be a once only deal so we need to think beyond the young and fancy free lifestyle.

Now married with kids, I think it was not that big of a deal for me. I had 7 people at my wedding. I think our relationship is very good. No reason (and no point) for regrets.

If that someone is a person you can see yourself growing old with as life changes then it's gotta be good.

That ring looks good on her hand I reckon, even if it's not a glossy magazine shot, it still looks good:smile:

i told you she told me NOT to ask on a holiday or birthday. i gave her the ring, no need to weasle out she'll be expecting another one soon.

Your mistake is that she will expect a new 'engagement' ring when you do pop the question and it will have to outdo this one too!!!
At least the wedding ring can be a plain one (hopefully) and a bit cheaper.

Sounds like you got a keeper at any rate, just remember the universal correct answer for after you are married - "Yes dear"

:yes: The answer is always yes dear.... :yes:

or pretend you didn't hear her clearly :whistle:

and yes she'll expect a new ring because like i said she'll be getting a nicer ring.

That's the difference between men and women. Men have selective deafness, women have selective hearing - they hear it and interpret it to what they want to hear:lol:
