LOL. My ring cost $500 on eBay and has no stone. We have professional degrees/careers, money and taste. I am 7 years younger and attractive then (16 years ago) and now. We just aren't into silly things like that.

OP - be honest, how hot are you, scale of 1-10?

If you are anything less than 9.9, your husband is the biggest moron to walk the earth.

Engaged with beautiful good quality rings worth 15k+

As we get older I am still angry and resentful. Was I not special or important enough for a nice ring?


OP, you are old enough to rise above this and other immature issues, go live and love instead of getting stuck on a stone on a piece of metal.

Get a job and buy him a $15K men's ring. https://www.saksfifthavenue.com/product/david-yurman-the-pav%C3%A9-roman-signet-18k-yellow-gold--amp--diamond-ring-0400010061328.html?dwvar_0400010061328_color=GOLD. He is special and important is he not? Do not get mad if he loses it. After presenting him this, see if your birthday/xmas/hannukah gets better.
PP here. Wait that was only $7K, he will sure get resentful.

I love the symbolism of the pearl. It was a significant purchase for us at the time (yes, we both contributed to it, since I thought it was not fair to expect my then fiancé to buy something expensive on his own when we were in our mid-20s and didn’t have a lot of money).

If other women prefer more expensive rings, that’s great for them. I love what I have; it’s very special to me.


This ring is very beautiful.

From illegal logging to blood diamonds, we are seeing the plundering of the earth and its people in an unsustainable way.

NP.. I kinda agree it might be a troll, but in case OP is not a troll..

what was DH's income back then? That matters.

When my sister got engaged, they didn't have much money, so yea, the ring wasn't all that nice. She was jealous of my ring when I got engaged, but DH (and I) were making good money. We were also a lot older when we got engaged compared to my sister.

Decades later, my sister's DH makes a lot more, and he got her a nice ring, nicer than mine, not that I care, really. I barely wear my engagement ring now. Stopped wearing it during the pandemic, and realize how much less of a hassle it is now without the ring.


Op here. He made about 75k. It’s a cheap setting as well. I hardly wear it due to embarrassment especially since all the women in our circle have rings worth 15k+ and the quality shows.

He makes more money now and says I can upgrade the setting of my ring. Really I want a nice 2 carat ring that will out do everyone else’s stupid ring they are so smug about!


OP, you are a stain on humanity. If my DH made 75k and wasted even 2k On a ring, I’d have been disgusted and likely broken up because he’s a complete idiot.

How do people know what other people’s rings are worth or the size. Surely you are not asking/they are not telling?

This entire conversation is vulgar.

Why don’t you buy your ring? Isn’t it all marital money anyway? If “he” can afford it, “you” can afford it. Make it a birthday or Christmas present and call it a day.


It means nothing giving it to myself.


LOL, you are so pathetic op.

I do not think you are for real but if youare-- buy your own ring. That is what I did. My DH + I are both kinda. Cheap. I knew that going in because we both grew up poor. Fast forward to the present- we are rich but still cheap. I splurged on the ring + you can too.
