Don't love my engagement ring

Anonymous
Hubby and I don't have rings. We're confident in our love without being adorned with trinkets.

I hear you. My diamond is 2 carat white colorless, set in a delicate airy natural yellow diamond paved setting.
I love, love, love my ring!
But. Sometime after the engagement we went to dinner with a couple we socialize pretty closely with.
The wife looked at my ring and said " if you get a halo setting your stone will look larger. Sometimes you have to get a little creative" and she smiled at me.
I am old enough to read between the lines because I've seen it all by now, but if I was younger I would feel that wonderful and important for every woman life event was painted in dirt. Especially considering the fact that my fiancé paid a lot the ring,I picked the stone and the setting, and I clearly indicated that I love my ring.
Just for the future reference, don't let yourself to get upset about some potential comments.

And you can change a setting later, of you don't like it, it's not such a big deal.

What a bitch. What did you say back? Do you still have to socialize with her?

I wanted a bigger ring, not crazy expensive, but more than now-DH could afford because he was paying off some debt. So I chipped in. I figured our money was going to be mingled anyway. So if you want a different ring then make it happen.

This is how I wanted my halo to look like. Super delicate and sparkly... I don't know the technical terms for it.

This is what mine looks like:



It's different. Duller. The diamond is beautiful but the setting doesn't enhance it.

I mean whatever, I haven't made a stink about it because I don't want to hurt his feelings. I know he did the best he could even with my vey specific instructions.


The bottom one looks classier. I like that one better. Your like that shallow bird that is attracted to shiny, lol.

The bottom on looks more classic and expensive. OP is nuts imo.

You're nothing but a materialistic diva. He should honestly take the ring back and give it to someone who would appreciate it.


Oh dear, she's going to make a good first ex wife. See it coming already.

She is deeply disturbed and unhappy person. Another words, yeh, a bitch, you are right.
The only thing I said to her was that I am happy with my ring. And smiled back at her. I was caught off guard to be honest,
in my book engagement is one of the events to express very positive emotions.
We have to socialize with them, her husband is my fiancé business partner. Other than that, no.
She tried to get together, but there were other unpleasant episodes, so, no.

I'm so sorry! Good for you for being the bigger person --and limiting your contact with her. She sounds poisonous.

Not necessarily. Engagement ring might be THAT ONE THING OP is fixated on.
She might compromise on the car, vacations - whatever, but not on the ring.
I know bunch of people with THAT ONE THING fixation, and they could not care less for other things.
I have few fixations myself, materialistic and not lol:

This is OP.

I actually love my ring now. It grew on me and I love the man who gave it to me.
