U only live once buy a ring that comes from the heart and don’t be cheap about it. You are not buying a ring every few years. Us guys spend stupid money all the time why not spend it on your significant other. Just make sure U insure the ring no matter the value.

I hears ya. I did the ring thing once. The day before I was going to propose I found out she had been cheating on me for the last three months.

That ring quickly turned into most of the payment for a new 1997 Suzuki Bandit 1200S.

Well that house sold to a cash buyer

 

[Shawn1112]

she gives no fucks about those shiny diamonds


Just saying

Same here, my Wife NFG as she isnt trying to compete with anyone.

buying a $$$$$$ ring is crazy,so are Wedding Receptions....save the fkn $$ for better things in life that are needed...not wanted
its a fkn ring,that basically means nothing these days

the"ring" does not lock the box...
the tens of thousands of dollars/pics/dvd waste of cash on Wedding wasted,no guarantees you stay married

bbq backyard FTW...just saying,more casual..."most people" dont want to go to a Wedding Reception..food arrives too late...typical food,beef,sausage,noodles etc...

not directed at anyone,just venting...cheers

What’s your point? I’ll spend 5 times more this time cause I’m better off financially. My point is u guys spend a shit load on cars/ parts and other crap, but want too cheap out on YOUR significant other. Maybe it’s important to her to have a nice ring just like it’s important for u guys to have nice things. My point is you are not buying her a ring a few years why not buy something that comes from the heart not a used one from Craigslist or pawn shop. Like u say Shawn u can’t take it with u.

 

[The Beast]

I’m older and if I can fork over 5k, 10k or 15k or more on a car I’m sure one can do the same for your significant other on a nice ring when the time comes.

Older / more experienced guys share wisdom with younger guys.

Younger guys don’t listen, then they exerpeince the hard way and become wise as the years pass

Then the cycle repeats

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

Little over 8 years in, still glad I got married

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

Also glad I got the wife a nice ring

 

[IZZy]

I love seeing people that are happily married and stay happily married because it’s rare.

 

[IZZy]

My only 2 cents are this.

get married because you desire to be with that person for the rest of your life, don’t do it because you feel it’s time or because that what’s expected of you after X amount of years.

 

[Rent Free]

Things are different now these young guys are making good money now. They can afford to spend some money. Like the original poster said his budget is 6k that will be a nice ring.
