[quote=Anonymous]I'm still on marriage 1 and I don't wear my engagement ring anymore because my finger swelled post kids and I was afraid to get it modified because it might get ruined (channel set band). And I'm no longer in "stare at my hand" or "prove something" mode. So many things have changed since decades ago. 1) Women, even celebrities, are contributing their own funds to make sure their rocks are big. So no longer shows anything about fiance, if one was trying to prove something there. 2) Lab-created has blown up the market. Which was artificial anyway...just like all luxury goods. 3) The above has really changed even the worth of the shallow status marker for try hards. If I could do it over, I'd get a larger, fancier, custom-made gold wedding band (with or without stones) and skip a projecting, pronged central stone completely. Something that reads expensive and married and raises no "is it fake" thoughts. Been contemplating this for an anniversary. Haven't got around to it. Jewelry is really low on my priorities list but I do work with lots of women who are rocking the big a$$ diamond look.[/quote]
