Hypothetically speaking how would you broach that subject when getting to know someone? I mean you can't wait 12-14 months to say hey I want a 150k ring and if I don't get it I'm gone.
When do you bring something like that up??

Loudoun County homeowner barely making six figures? She's too low of a class to be in the same social circles as the kinds of people who will drop $150,000 on an engagement ring. Sounds to me like she just doesn't want to get married and is setting up some ridiculous conditions to ensure nobody ever meets them. If she's serious, well, good luck to her on "compromising" on everything except the ring price. It takes two to make a compromise, and nobody's coming down the pike.
You missed my post stating that she has a wealthy family.

Anonymous wrote:Ladies I have a friend that won't accept anything less than a 150k engagement ring. She's currently single and in her late 30's. She said that if she doesn't get what she wants then she won't go through with the engagement. I understand in some income circles that 150k engagement ring is the norm. However, I want to know your thoughts. Thanks.
