MrsBreezy: Question - Engagement rings, how many of you actually care about how much it costs.. Or is it about the thought of him actually getting the band telling you he wants to spend the rest of your life with you. Which is it ( appearance or love? ?)

It all boils down to personal satisfaction. If your acceptance of a marriage proposal depends on the quality of ring, you can always refuse the man with the less expensive ring. What matters is that you are eventually satisfied with your choice of a marriage partner.

Lol here there's actually a rule of the thumb about rings. They must be three months or over the salary

Hmm ill say " no I won't marry you until you get me a proper ring you think I deserve..."

You must still be a teenager or in your early twenties.

By the time you reach 30, you will ask him to just pay the dowry.

Fantasy is nice..but reality is a b.itch

Many ladies said so but now are praying to be a second wife, by the special grace of God.

Pray that it shall not be your portion.

When I find one and wants to engage her, I'll surely go for the best.... Though am a guy, but it really matters to me to get something of quality for my baby....if I claim I love her, though ring doesn't show you love someone, but I swear 100k diamond ring is not enough.... cheesy Baby where ever you are, just know you deserve the very best,whether quality is important or not, I'll go for the best for you...y do I love you if I can't give you the best when I have the money.....?

jashar: Choi OP. You just reminded me. I don't care if my gown is #2000 or if the whole ceremony costs #3000,but that ring ehn must come from only 3 jewellers.
1.Tacori.
2.Cartier.
3.Tiffany.
That's all.grin

/
I want a private jet, but I cannot afford it.

The question is: Are you worth a ring from any of the jewelers?

Most importantly, do you have what it takes to attract a guy who can afford such a ring?

That is assuming that you can tell the difference between a quality ring and a knock-off.

Most people cannot. They only look at the price tag which any guy man can manipulate. grin grin grin

This is why job interviews are good -- They slap dreamers back to reality.

The intention is to marry her...2 becomes 1.

I am not buying her.

It will be an insult to my fiancee to appraise her value to the value of a ring.

So if I buy $5000 ring for her, so she is not worth more than that to me?

And if I sell a kidney to buy her a ring of $20k, does that mean I love her more?

You got it all twisted.

Bride price has transformed into something it shouldn't have, but it is the underlying premise that is correct. A man should prove how far he is willing to go for a daughter's hand in marriage, and where it hurts is the pocket. It should be adjusted for rich man or poor man, but traditional "price" of food stuffs is a must. If the man wants to buy a nice ring and can, let him. But he needs to respect the family first and foremost, but not if they are adding and making a list like he is Father Christmas.

Cost of Proposal ring shouldn't be important until the actual ring. Then again depends on d gurl, if the ring cost a lot then that means he really luvs you and its likely to turn to marriage. so if he can spend that much for engagement ring then yep there is marriage in the corner.

Well, the girl doesn't want the guy? If she doesn't, then I understand why she would refuse the ring, because she would refuse ANY ring regardless of the cost. But if the quality of the ring is the factor that dictates whether she wants to marry him or not, and not whether he can even afford a more expensive ring(given that he got a ring well within his financial ability), then the guy should keep his ring because he hasn't found a wife yet.

See where you really belong.

Cartier is the best of the best? LOL.

Villager feeling funky!...an honest observation not an insult

A good cartier ring runs for less than $1000. Is that how much your love is worth? LOL

You are putting more emphasis on the ring without thinking of the marriage itself.

After a year, we will be inundated with " A story of Life from a Blog visitor"...you sure fit the profile
