All the girls who are ready to be married ... basically waiting on the Q .... gives a lil more than rats @$$ about the ring ... if the guy has to live on the street for two months to give them a nice ring, perfectably acceptable for them.

For who haven't gotten serious yet, u get mix response


btw, 2 month is the rule. Damn girls trying to rob us of every little penny...just imagine if we could spend that money on a car .....

Assuming the girl is going to be with your...forever...I don't think it's a bad "investment."

I can see it from the other side too. If you love your gf as much as you claim, spending a huge chunk of change on her will be no sweat. If you are all about the concept of being together, then you should be together for a long long time, and a nice ring will only compliment that. I think it would be insulting both giving or recieving a 200 dollar ingagement ring.
