[quote=Anonymous]I completely relate to feeling a ring is important. I don’t relate to pressuring your fiance to go into debt do that you can have an expensive one. The meaning has nothing to fo with the cash value. My husband and I were engaged in college, so our finances were pretty paltry. I told him that as a symbol of our love and relationship, I wanted the ring to be real (cubic zirconia were newly popular), but I didn’t care how big it was or if there was even a diamond. My husband picked out a lovely, delicately styled ring with an (extremely) tiny diamond. I think my engagement ring and wedding band combined cost about $100 (1992). His wedding band ended up costing more because it contained more gold. Our marriage ended up having other problems, but I treasure that ring. A bigger or more expensive ring could not have possibly been more meaningful, and if that’s what it became about, it would have actually cheapened the gesture. [/quote]
