[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am planning on proposing to my girlfriend in January. We have previously discussed engagement rings so I could get a sense of what she liked/wanted. My price range is $5-$8k. She really is fixated on have a diamond ring that is at least 1.5 - 2 carats. With my price range, it's not doable.

She does not want a gemstone or a "fake" diamond, I also floated the idea of getting a ring she could upgrade down the line, she's not interested in that either.

I'm trying to figure out what to do, or a productive way to approach this conversation with her. [b]My girlfriend isn't even that materialistic she just always envisioned a certain engagement ring that I can't afford right now.

Looking for advice,[/b] [/quote]

Well if it's true she's not materialistic just tell her that the ring she's envisioning isn't in the budget right now and come up with solutions together, some possible solutions may be a) she contributes to the ring b) she waits longer for that ring while you save c) she picks a ring within the budget D0 downsize on the dream wedding for the dream ring.[/quote]
