geeeeeez I plead the 5th!!!! haha oh sorry I forget sometimes.......

<-------human remember!!!

hehehe

na i'm just not that memorable unless ya meet me in person

I'd give a fake ring for engagement ONLY if the actual wedding ring is incredibly amazing and I wanted to surprise and stun her.

the engagement ring is the bigger one generally josh.....its the one to entice her to marry you.......then you get some crap wedding band

No ring...use the money for something more practical...our wedding rings cost $80 each back in 1986...and only because our mother's insisted we had them.

I don't get it...yes symbolic and all that...but tying hands with a ribbon is much more poetic and symbolic to me..in a wedding ceremony.

What gives with all that?

Friendship ring, engagement ring, wedding ring, eternity ring...

a whole lot of money on a hand, and easy to lose..in my opinion.

I don't think it should matter if it is real or not...but he should tell the truth if its not real.
I had an engagement ring that cost $5000 and one that cost $1500, I preferred the $1500 ring. Why?? I think the man that gave it to me..he had more feelings of true love...the other guy just wanted me to have a huge arse diamond on my finger!!

How can a ring be fake?

If you can slide it onto your finger it must be real!








Ohhhhhh wait, I get it!!! It wasn't made of diamond!!!!

Hmmmm?

Hearts aren't made of diamond either. Does that mean they're fake?

It's the thought that counts.

The only ring a woman will ever get from me is a telephone ring!



I'm not into jewelry.

Oh wait,.... I'll give her a ring of flowers!

"It's the thought that counts. "


My kind of woman.

A ring is just a tangible reflection of a commitment/promise made to you. When I look back on past relationships the love that remains rarely has to do with "stuff", so no. The ring doesn't have to be real, but the promise behind it does!

and we can always hawk it when the relationship goes bad!!!! jk/!!!

My stone cought(sp) on the side of the truck & almost ripped my finger off!!

It all depends on your life style. I never wear it.
Guess it goes with clothes.

I have such a beautiful ring......I dont wear it because of what it represented......oh sad now

Engagement rings are ultimately circles of metal, and the circle is a part of very sacred, symbolic geometry. Circles have no beginning and no end and thus represent eternity, renewal, wholeness, and perfection. They are also symbolic of the sun, moon, and planets, bringing together all life just as an engagement ring brings together the lives of two people

No where does this discuss the material of which the ring is made from

I would give a beatiful ring.....And it deff wouldnt be fake

Sh!!!!!!!!t just put somethin on my finger...lol, show me that you want to be with me forever. I don't give a sh!t how much it costs. You can get it out of a damn quarter machine for all I care as long as its not because you don't think I deserve it. If a man loves me enough to ask me to marry him, I could care less if I even HAVE a ring, let alone if its 'real' or not. Besides, I've seen some cubic zirconia rings that were gorgeous, and the gold and/or silver was real. They just didn't cost out the a$$ was all...lol. I don't know if I'd even be comfortable with a man spending 3 months of pay on a ring for me anyway.

I am not sure about that question, my boyfriend has mentioned marriage and I told him the ring does not matter. I am sure he will pick something i will be happy with. As long as the band is real then i could live with a trymond LOL. All i care about is my husband providing for us and maybe kids if we have them. That is the reason alot women can't keep men because they are too concerned about material things that break and wear out. Rings are replacable and in time he will get you a better ring.
But only your feelings can determine what is good enough.

I would never buy a fake or low quality ring for an engagement ring.

A friend of mine was ecstatic when her then-boyfriend proposed to her. She asked me to look at the emerald... six flaws, all surface level, very visible, very noticeable. The gold looked old and rusted. It looked like he had spent $20 at the pawn shop. She dumped him because of this.

But, in all honesty, does it matter? I don't think it does, but I have high standards for jewelry. I'm not gonna buy a 10k gold ring with a 1.5ct CZ. I'll save up for the real deal.
