It’s not jealousy, it’s wisdom. Pay attention and you, too, shall have it one day.
I’m 41. I wish nothing but happiness for younger brides. I have a beautiful ring that I love, and I hope the same for them.
I hope for younger brides to be making a good decision about whom they choose to marry, to be entering into a (hopefully) lifelong commitment with their eyes wide open, and yes, that all of that leads to happiness. Hoping for them to have a beautiful ring that they love? Don’t really care.
Luckily, people don’t have to choose between these two things. Oddly, you can make a good, mature decision about who to marry, have a strong commitment, plan a sensible wedding, AND love your engagement ring that your spouse lovingly and excitedly selected for you. Ask me how I know.
