Please be serious …Im getting married in march.

to me i would really like a 1 carat ring. i guess thats pretty standard. i would like to get the best stone as possible for it. for example, i really dont want a yellowish color. anyway, while doing research i’ve really come to like some of the designer styles like tacori or ritani. these are sold as just semi mount, so we would have to get a diamond for it. at mall stores like harry ritchies or whatever all of their rings come with stones. i have one ring in mind at harry’s that i like, but the reason i shift away from them is because i feel like the majority of people go there for their rings and i try to be unique so these designer styles, although slightly more expensive, are different.

my questions are;
should i settle for a less expensive pretty ring that i liked to begin with, before i came across these more unique brands, but are already set in stones.

should i get a unuque band and settle for a less expensive, less quality stone.

should i get a unique band and get maybe a gemstone instead of a diamond, cutting the costs alot.

and finally, what are some of your opinions on gemstones as engagement rings? they are more unique than a diamond, and less expensive therfore i could have a larger center stone, but for a ring you wear everyday, with the colored stone it probley wouldnt match with everyday clothing like a white diamond.

also, what about getting a unique designer band and possibley getting a diamonique stone to put in it? would a jeweler be willing to do this?

i just really feel like its time to move forward with our relationship, but i want to be as economical as well. we are both in college so the budget is limited and i would like the best look for the money.

soo…will you? =D

lmao xD

Which brings me to my question…what would you do if the engagement ring was absolutely repulsive to you?

When are they going to start doing it like the penguins and just bring a diamond to their woman and then they go together to pick out a setting? (j/k)
we’re doing well $$$ wise. I don’t mind if the stone is smaller, but the yellow gold and round cut diamond (gag) that can be changed…
also for those of you who have decided to be rude *ehem,* i believe you didn’t finish reading the question in your excitement to breed your poisonous attitude. I asked what the answerer would do, not what I should do.
I didn’t think he meant to insult me when he said it was too fancy…I’m always wearing small things. Plain pearl studs, tiny cross necklace, plain silver watch. And I’m always riding my horse or painting so I don’t really wear a lot of jewelry. So I wasn’t offended. The ring I liked was only 3,000. So it wasn’t that expensive or anything.
All I really want to know is what YOU would do if YOU didn’t like YOUR ring.
wow you act like 3k is a lot of money. It’s not. My last horse was 10k and horses die. rings don’t die. Besides I said the one I DO like is 3k.
All the people with thumbs down are people who didn’t read the stinking question.

you can see swizz beats wearing it, aahah. he wore it on his performance tonite on BET.

Mick Foley comes out with three TNA security guys. Foley questions why he would owe Abyss anything. He says does he owe Chris the 24 plus years of blood, sweat and tears? He asks does he owe him for paving the way for guys like Abyss? Does he owe him for the flannel shirt? Foley answers, no, he doesn’t owe him anything. Abyss says he just wanted to save Foley. He says the picture was an accident because he went to get the barbwire bat to help Foley and knocked the picture off the wall. Foley asks if he gave Chris permission to go into his office. He asks if he gave him permission to get his back. Foley looks back and says he didn’t need Abyss before. He questions if he needed him when he was flying off the Hell in a Cell. He questions if he needed him in Japan when losing flesh. He questions if he needed him when he lost his ear in Germany. Abyss says Foley is… no… was his hero. Abyss says he got into this business because of Foley. He says he got through the beatings from his dad by thinking of Foley. Abyss asks how did Foley repay him? He removes the bandage and shows the cut on his forehead. Foley says he got hurt too and was in the hospital too. Foley extends a peace offering of a new Tweak and Tweet connection. He says it’s not the original, it’s a cheap ripoff, an imitation, just like Abyss. Foley says Chris isn’t in the same league as him. Foley says he’s like the photo, a cheap imitation and a ripoff. He smashes the photo on Abyss and leaves. Abyss goes after Foley but the TNA security guys try to stop him. Abyss beats them all up while Foley gets away to end the segment.

Madison said Angelina turned them into monsters and made them do things they didn’t want too. Now that she’s gone they want to show their true colors and apologize for every heinous act they did.
