an engagement ring today. Been putting it off for about 6 months and finally took the plunge

. I'm excited, nervous, happy, and scared all at once. It should be about a month before it's finished so she better not be a bitch or that shits going back

Juggs · 06-30-2007, 03:37 PM

haha... congrats dude! What kind of engagement ring did you buy her? cut/stone size/etc?

Well whats better is I posted just as I was leaving to go order, annnd I get there and the place closed early for the holiday weekend

, so I'm going Monday afternoon now.

The diamond is a family heirloom, it was my great-grandma's, my grandma's and my mom's on their engagement rings. It's at least 60+ y/o and is a solid carat princess cut that is just about completely pure. My dad had it appraised back in 1981 and it was something like a 13K diamond.

It's going to be set to a white gold band with smaller diamonds going half way down each side of the band and has a matching interlocking wedding band. The diamond is actually slightly off center so that when you match the wedding band to it the diamond will sit almost center to the 2 bands making it look like 1.

You know the thought did cross my mind, but since I'm getting off easy not having to buy the diamond I won't be taking to much of a hit to the checking account. I do really want a M coupe as a toy, but I doubt I'll be able to get that pulled off

I just got a Nikon D40X as my bday present from my dad and brother so when the ring comes in I'll be sure to take some pics of it and revive this thread.

She fuckin better be. She knows shes getting that diamond and we already discussed that if anything were to happen, that that diamond is coming back no matter what. I don't care if her finger is still attached at the time.

My mom told me to use it a couple weeks before she passed so it def. means a lot to me.
