sterling 1,997 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 man i dont know what wimminz y'all are marrying that need 10k rings, i already told jala if/when we get engaged if he spends more than a couple grand i'm gonna flip shit then again i suppose it depends on how much money you guys make and stuff but i'd rather use that extra ~7-8k for like some badass computers, or video games, or a car, or save it for a house It salary terms, without taxes, it is about or perhaps a bit less than what the 'going rate' is in terms of price. My woman isn't the type to flaunt stuff, she's classy. The ring is pretty simple, the rock is just large. I think it will fit her perfectly. We are both in our mid twenties and will have graduate degrees so in the long run I figured spend now and save later.

NotAVHLM-GM 1,858 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Congrats Sterling, really great news And i'm also happy my wife also didn't want such an expensive ring, she wanted an Irish Claddagh ring due to it's meaning (and luckily they aren't that expensive). Even the rings we took for our wedding are nowhere near that amount (and actually the ones we both liked the most) Enjoy the engagement and have fun planning the wedding.

Even 2 months for someone who makes reasonable income can hit what Sterling spent... I hope to God expectations have changed tho cuz I just started working and I know I gotta get a ring sooner than later ( Congrats Sterling btw!

I hope to God expectations have changed tho cuz I just started working and I know I gotta get a ring sooner than later ( Congrats Sterling btw! She'll absolutely say yes yeah,that's what I was.referring to as being dumb. The whole 3 months salary thing was a campaign cooked up by diamond companies to get people to spend as.much as possible, ie "he doesn't love you if he won't spend this much on you. It's just a really manipulative situation (on the diamond companies' parts, not the women) and it sucks that guys get the short end of the stick on it. GRANTED STERLING SEEMS HAPPY TO HAVE DONE IT, so I'm very happy for him I've just seen it be a source of great stress for some guys, kinda like you right now lol.

Smarch 3,153 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 That's the price you pay. There's always a price for fun, sometimes it comes at the start sometimes at the end.
