Does everyone like their engagement ring?

I was just curious if everyone likes their engagement ring. I am not to fond of it. It's cute It is a heart shape diamond and silver but I know it is from Walmart. I just feel like he should have saved up alittle while and got something else. All of his other friends have rings that cost in the thousands. Then when I come with my walmart special it just doesn't look right.

Also I feel we have broken engagements before. So Many fights I think a fresh start which what we are having with the new date maybe a new ring

I want everything right this time.

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

Honey .....I know Iam going to sound like a Witch ...but maybe you should give it back and tell him how you feel about it...its JMO and I dont mean to be nasty - But he should wait and save like you said and want to put more into it - I am not saying he has to spend 5k or anything even a good 1/2 CT from a jewler would be wonderful! and you can always upgrade later if thats what you wanted to do, your worth it ....he can even make payments your not even married yet if he isnt willing to make an effort now its only going to get hard as things move along

I love my ring-alot

Not to be rude-and i hear what you are saying-but isn't it more about you guys then the ring? I mean it is a symbol of his love and devotion and of the future he sees with you-

I told him that I want something different and I refuse to wear it. I think I am hurting his feelings though. Which I do not want to do but I want what everyone else has.

I agree with you. But I wish he put more effort into it.

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

Oh I hear you -it ***** when you want to be giddy and cheesey and show off-but if you really want to be with him then hurting his feelings won't help-I feel like a ring is something that is given to you with thought behind it and 'we' are in no real position to be demanding about it-

maybe if you show him it is not about the ring * and sport that bad boy like it is 10 carats* he will want to upgrade to make you happy-

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

I love my ring very much and you should be able to feel the same for yours - I mean this is something you are going to be wearing for the rest of your life.

Maybe you can go with him and look at them together?

I can see what you are saying however, I think that you should accept the ring and be grateful because some people do not get any. Try not to compare him and his friends. Maybe they can afford to buy rings for their ladies for $$$ but maybe your FH cannot afford to. Even though it is not what you like be thankful and look at it as it is coming from the bottom of his heart. Remember marriage is not about the ring but the love and commitment to each other. A lot of people are married for years and did not even have a bling bling on their fingers. I am quite happy and satisfied with what my DH gave me and even if he did give me something that was not my taste I would accept it and be humble.

Lately I have been feeling bad about how I have treated the ring.

You should try to proceed with caution because it can really be a problem especially with him.

Honey trust me I understand! I guess if he isnt willing to give on it ....which I dont think is fair but JMO- then you have a choice live with it its not the end of the world you love each other or its going to drive you crazy and put space in between you guys....I have a question for you ....which is he so unwilling to do anything about it if it know that it bothers you

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

The love between the 2 of you should not be about a ring. If he got the ring from Walmart or Tiffany it shouldn't be a reflection of how much thought went into buying the ring. No matter what kind of ring it is or where he bought shouldn't matter. What should matter is that he loves you so much that the put thought into the fact that he wants to spend the rest of his life with you!
WEAR YOUR RING WITH PRIDE

and remember
even though you might think that other girls have a 'better' ring then you, it doesn't mean that they have a better relationship or more love from their man then you do.





This is just my option and I don't mean to be harsh!

well said!

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

I love my ering, it was exactly what i had wanted.

if you're not happy you can try talking to him about it, but try not to be mean about it, it will hurt his feelings.

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

did not relize this post would get such a response. I will wear my ring so I do not hurt his feelings. I will just hint for another one.

Re: Does everyone like their engagement ring?

That's the best idea i think... the symbolism is there... he loves you and thats why he gave you the ring! I would wear it and hint you would like a new one. BUT TELL HIM YOU LOOOOVE HIM!
