Well if she's cool with a Street Fighter themed Halloween, it sounds like she's worth it

Is she planning on holding up her end of the bargain?

This is the style of setting I'd like to find. Got the link from a female friend of hers and they were talking about this one in particular. Sneaky sneaky.

http://www.tiffany.com/Engagement/It...upSKU=GRP10005

I'm only looking to spend 3-4k though, gotta find something similar.

I had decided that I would not "upgrade" her ring in the future and that the one I gave her would be the one I thought was the best.

1.6 carat, fine cut, F color, and IF clarity. there is one inclusion that I could see, it was small, and luckily on the edge of the cut so it wasnt visible. but when I look at a stone, I look at it thru each and every face and every angle possible with light from above and below to ensure that it is clear.


haha yea tiffanys...but i dont want him to spend a massive amount cause i know ill be the one to drop it down the sink

thats why you get insurance on it.



Omg that is gorgeous! Haha my bf was only working two days a week a couple of months ago and now he is working 6 days a week he joked with me saying he should have bought it then
lol I'm just about paid off on this one. around Jan/feb, nearly all of my debt will be paid off. my truck will be paid off, the ring will be paid off, my student and personal loans paid off. which is good, cus in March, I'm out of a job.... depending on what I can work out with Junkie and GTA

My gf's promise ring back when was close 1200, so I'd say the 2-3 month salary thing is what I would be willing.

Good job paying all of that off. If it weren't for my student loans, I'd have bought the ring by now.

I liked it, it's kinda modern, kinda classic, and very elegant.

well, our plan is to knock out as much of our debt as possible before June/July. which buying her a new car for her birthday this year isnt helping that much, but we are moving about an hour or two north after she finishes teaching this next semester so I can go to school full time.
