I don’t want to spend a lot of money on a ring. Thoughts?*

Didn't you recently say you've been divorced two or three times? Maybe it's time you go with the long play. Give it 6-10 years.

 

[UCFKNIGHTS88]

My girl told me she wanted diamonds, so I took her to Ruby Tuesday’s.

You're a lib so it shouldn't be hard for you to come up with an argument that rings are simply an antiquated artifact of stupid conservative culture and tradition.

Catholic and divorced 2-3 times tell me that it means nothing.

Well, I don't know how many times he's been divorced or the reasons why. That's one of those rules that seems to have been optional for too many married Catholics.

I don't either and I agree. I really wasn't intending to be judgmental...it was more of an extrapolation.

Quite the contrary! He might be ready to be county clerk in a remote area of Kentucky.

I bought my wife her 10 year ring** from Israel Diamonds. Just picked the stone and the setting. They did a great job.

Alternatively, if you frequent Manhattan, there is the Diamond District.

**This was back in 2007, so I cannot speak for them over the past decade.

Spoiler

My "2 months salary" in college ($6/hr back in 1995) assured my wife she was screwed on her engagement + band. I promised her a bigger ring at 10 years. Of course, she is frugal as f---, so even at 10 years, she turned it down. So I finally got her a 2.3 caret ruby set on platinum. It had a run of calcium, which brought the gemstone cost way down, but they set it so one cannot see it, as it's on the side facing down, into the setting.

Is she trickable? Can you go to Claire's and get a 10k cubic zirconia?

She'll eventually figure it out ... although that depends on how many years he wants to be married.

I went non traditional and bought a morganite pink:

I'll never understand getting married more than once. If I ever get set loose again, I'll be free forever.

Any woman should be proud to call her your man. Your message board prowess is the stuff of legends.

For me, it's more like not being able to find another woman who will put up with my sh--. I only half joke.

I think you can pick these up at CVS
