Does anyone not like there engagement ring

Original post by SUNSHINE24

This might be really mean- but im not crazy about my ring. Its smaller than what i anticipated. Im not a real flashy girl either i would have liked a ring that was about .70 points and my ring is about .50 in a solitare setting. So i have been wedding band shopping and i cant find anything i like b/c i dont really like the E-ring. Is anyone not wearing there E-ring after the wedding and planning on wearing the wedding band only?

If you thought it was rude sorry but I just think it was even MORE rude at what some of these people posted. 'I would rather have someone tell me the truth then pussyfoot around it'
If she was asking ' Do you like this idea/shirt/whatever' THEN you can really post whatever your opinion is. But I think in this particular thread if you did not ' Not like' your Ering there was no need to post here.



not to be rude but you so need to get over it, this is a public forum and if you like we could go search your posts and see if you stuck to all the topics, please take a chill pill already you are the only one rehashing this the original poster has not even said anything.....

You are practically a newbie and obviously don't know these boards too well.

newbie or not these are public boards and we should be able to say what we like and not be attacked by other members just because we voiced our opinion, no one criticized the poster in a hurtful way, you really overreacted and should not try to dictate how we should respond.
I am now done with this

I wish my e-ring was a lil different because I am having a hard time finding a matching band. I am having one custom made to fit my e-ring but then I wont be able to wear the band alone

Re: Does anyone not like there engagement ring

Personally, I am sorry you don't like your e-ring, and I am even more surprised that some women won't wear them after their weddings!!!

I was bad about my ring. I was very worried that FI would get me something I didn't like, and he was all like 'you should love whatever I get you because it came from my heart' and I personally don't agree. I gave him a picture of EXACTLY what I wanted, and he made 1 minor change, which I love. I just wonder what he would have bought.......

You are lucky that FI is willing to change it and his feelings aren't hurt. I hope you either learn to love it or get something you do.

And as far as the one poster who said no one pays attention to your e-ring after you get married, said who??????

If I didn't wear my e-ring everyday and FI spent all that $$$$, he would kill me!!!!

Me too, however, if you get an eternity band (diamonds all around), then you can have it custom curved to fit and turn it around if you want to take your e-ring off!!!!

I was too taken aback that when this poster voiced her concern for her ring, some people starting writing how much they loved theirs.

I'm sorry..its RUDE. How would it go over if someone said 'i can't afford the place i want to get married at , i'm so upset' and people wrote back 'i just booked the place i love even though its so expensive!'.

It makes the person posting feel badly. Just think a little before you reply. Think about how you'll make the other person feel. This isn't about giving an honest review of a reception hall, or telling someone you don't like jewelry they picked if they ask for honest opinions....this situation turned into making someone else feel badly, whether it was intentional or not!




I could not agree more!!!!




I just have to say i agree too! To say you love your ring doesn't help the inital poster much.



Ditto.
I was disappointed (at first) with the size of the center stone (looks like .5, definitely less than .75). My ring has baguettes as sidestones, so the center stone needed to be a little bigger in order to stand out.

Maybe I'll upgrade the center stone in a couple of years. FH won't probably notice.

for what it's worth, i don't think it's right to judge the feelings that are expressed on this board.

cresthollowbride, in my opinion your feelings are what they are. they are not good or bad, and i don't think you should feel badly about feeling how you do. this whole wedding thing - rings, halls, etc. - is SO stressful and can bring out feelings that you're not too proud of. please don't beat yourself up over it.

Re: Does anyone not like there engagement ring

sorry to hear that! what if you looked into i think they are called ring gaurds maybe? like they fit around your solitaire and accent it you can get diamond or other stones...just an idea! i know alot of people who get married and just then wear a band not the actual E ring. good luck!!!!
