Are you jelous? Tell the truth...

Original post by tiff940

So we are all human and i think it would be a lie to say we are never jealous of anyone. Do you get jealous when you see other girls rings that are bigger than yours?

If you FH offered you to get an upgrade would you???

As for me, it may sound shallow but I would upgrade all the way... not that I don't love my ring.... but who doesn't want bigger?

I'm not jealous of other girls rings either, but I would upgrade if he offered to do it....it would still have the same meaning behind it...but I never really compared my ring to other girls rings



Ditto, ditto, and ditto. I LOVE my setting but if I get a different ring or a different stone or a different anything it won't change the meaning behind it. I'd upgrade a car, a house, my ring, anything if it's what we wanted. I plan on passing my ring down so it's not like I'll be taking thousands of dollars to my grave.

My ring doesn't mean anything, his love does.



I completely agree! And I love your last line especially...a lot of times, people attach too much emotion to material things...I don't see anything wrong with having the ring upgraded, it's a material thing...it's not like you're tarnishing your love by having it upgraded..



i agree with all of you guys ... i think a ring is a ring and it doesnt mean anything ... i am on my 3rd ring from thats right my 3rd ... long sotry short the one he proposed with was his great grandmothers and it got lost (he lost it) so he got me a new one ... well there was something wrong with the new one so when we went back he saw another one he liked more so he got me that one instead!!! i love the one i have now but if he was like lets upgrade to a bigger diamond i so would ... and i dont necessarily get jealous jealous of other girls rings ... but some you cant help be like omg i am jealous i would love that ring ... like mizzdimple ... your ring is huge and pretty and i would not mind having that on my finger



omg im sittin here reading this and u call me out lol...um its not fun! seriously! When I saw it was idnt even realize how big it was and then I was like...ummm people are going to think im materialistic...i actually take it out of birds eye view..its a bit embarassing is this wrong to feel this way?




dont feel that way ... who cares what people think ... you know you arent materialistic so who cares and if anyone has any negative comment about it then i would say they are just jealous cause they just want one ... the only thing i would be would scared to wear it ... i'd be afraind i get mugged ... i would make sure to have insurance on it ... also if you really feel wierd wearing it all the time ... maybe then get a smaller one that you wear all the time and you can wear that one for special occasions ... but honestly my asss would just wear the huge one ... wear it proud theres nothing to be ashamed about ...

Honestly... I absolutely love my ring! Probably because I picked it out... lol... And I actually tried on a much larger rock and it just looked weird on my hands...

So what if my diamond isn't as large as others? It's very good quality which is way more important to me anyways... it always sparkles! And I know that it's the best that FH could do only working part time and being a full time student. I love him so much for buying me what he did, and I'm more excited about marrying him than anything else!

First, I absolutely love my ring sooooo much. Second, I wanted a bigger stone because I have big fingers (size 9 -- I win)... and, my wedding band belonged to my great grandmother, and the thing is tremendous. I tried on a 1.5k stone with my wedding band, and the stone got lost in it. So, we went for something just under 2.5, which I love. If I could have bigger, of course I would!! lol. I don't often get jealous of other rings, especially since I rarely see one that is bigger or better than mine! (I'm in the middle of PA, people STARE at my ring around here... lol)

I love my ring. Fh and I had looked at rings online so he had an idea of what I liked. Also, I have little fingers so a huge ring would look stupid.

Plus this ring has sentimental value

I used to be jealous of people's rings before I got engaged....but once fh proposed and gave me mine... I fell in love with my ring! He did a great job. He has always had great taste when it came to jewelry...and of course in picking me to be his fw!!!

Re: Are you jelous? Tell the truth...

LOL...I was going to say I probably have the biggest fingers..they are 8 3/4! When my FH took one of my rings to get my size for my e-ring, he said the woman behind the counter, and his mother were shocked at how big my fingers are! FH has the same size as me...I was always told I have man hands!!

But...I love my e-ring...and I don't think I would want to get a bigger size. It means a lot that he picked it out himself. I might want to make it a lower setting, because it gets caught on everything....but besides that, I am happy.

I'm not materialistic and look at what I have as a blessing! I would not want an upgrade, and no I dont get jealous...

Re: Are you jelous? Tell the truth...

For some reason, i dont really feel sentimental value with my ring. i like it and everything, but if my house were on fire and i had to save 3 items, my ring probably would be #4.

i am getting two wedding bands, one with diamonds and one plain. the plain band will be engraved and i will consider this THE ring with sentimental value that he will give me during the ceremony. i cant explain it, but there is something about simplicity that seems so special to me. i guess thats why i find i single rose from a garden way more romantic that a dozen roses from a florist.

i do get jealous how other girls gush over their rings, i wish i felt that way. but to me it just seems like an expensive piece of jewelry and i dont really like jewerly. i know, i must sound ungrateful.

No WAY!!! I love my ring. He designed every part of it. I would never trade it in. It's not 5c. but that doesn't matter to me, I'm not a bling bling look at me girl....it's a perfect size for me

Anna you're funny. Your ring is beautiful so don't change it

Re: Are you jelous? Tell the truth...

I dont really get jealous, I love my ring, but I def admire other girlks rings.

But It means a lot to me that FH picked it out and bought it for me. He loves seeing it on my finger

FH would never let me change it so upgrading is out. He feels that this is what He got me and thats it, he hates that woman change the setting and such. I sort of agree with him, he gave me THIS ring and thats what it is.

But maybe in the future after we are married a million years, ill get another hehe
