Last night at the bar I was hanging out a bit with a friend's GF.
We were talking about marriage and stuff.
She said she had a 2 karat minimum on engagement ring.
She said I should do atleast a karat.
Curious what others do.

Probably not. She was trying to explain the difference between her Louis Vitton purse and a fake one. I then asked, "Does the expensive purse hold stuff better? Is it waterproof"? The answer, no. It's a status symbol.

the type of girl who is dead set on a diamond size is not the naive pretentious whore for me.

Mine was right under a grand for a half carat in a somewhat custom band. Thankfully I married someone who is pretty low maintenance though she refuses to rock a fake bag she never spends more than $300 and usually gets them for a birthday/christmas present.

I bought a custom engraved antique style platinum wedding ring for my wife with two .25 ct stones for about $2,500 or so and was given a 1 ct stone for the center by my grandmother. All my wife really cared about was the style/look of the ring. She actaully wanted smaller stones but hey wutcha gonna do.:shrug:
I give girls a ring all the damn time...

if shes hung up on the price/size of the ring, shes not worth marrying IMO.
if she really loves me for me, i should be able to give her an engagement cheeseburger, and she will be happy about it.
Give her a McGriddle, it is way more meaningful.

my nephew eats these corndog like things, but its a sausage link wrapped in a blueberry pancake. yuck

Up until this morning I followed the same logic, but then god spoke to me via a sausage egg and cheese McGriddle. I was so hungover, I just didn't care, then heaven literally caressed my mouth with that tasty morsel.
i laughed when my wife told me a 2 karet minimum. I told her she'll get what i give her. I have not bought a ring for her yet.

it cracks me up when you hear these people talking about how in love they are and they cant wait to get married, then i ask how long they have been together, and they reply "5 months".
my current girl and i have been together for 9 years, and are still not married. she never harassed me about "the ring" but i knew she wanted one, so i got her one for valentines day a couple years ago, so we are technically engaged, but still have made no plans or dates for a wedding. we dont plan on having kids, so whats the point.
i dont believe in marriage. if two people love each other and want to be together, why do you need material things and religious ceremonies to do that?

My wife got a $1200 dollar 1/2 carat certified diamond engagement ring, and another half carat enhancer when we got married. Total of 1 carat, and about 3 grand. I'll get a pic of it up sometime, it's fucking awesome. And expensive.
Oh, having it certified is good. It's insurable that way in case something happens to it.

You don't need a religious ceremony. :fyi: Ours was non-denominational, and was basically nothing more than committing ourselves to each other, and no one else. There was nothing religious about it. The ceremony was for her, basically. However, if yours doesn't want that, then go down to the courthouse and have it done. It's free, and the taxes are better, I hear.

Just to spam a little more, it is actually two rings. Wedding band and engagement rock fused together. They can be taken apart of course for that 'special moment' and then fused back together.

My wife had hers soldered together a few months after we got married. It didnt "fuse" together like it prolly should have. It was a one off ring and very intricate so she was fine with it.

Eh, marriage is the downfall of a man in most cases. There are a select few that actually work out because the women does not turn into a lazy ass complain box.
I have been married for 5 years, I have been dying slowly for five years.
I see why some men beat their women for not cooking and cleaning, I blame shitty mothers for this.
Oh and the only reason I haven't killed myself is the only good thing that came out of the mess is my daughter who is two years old now. I refuse to let her become a lazy ass woman and it feels good to know someone can love you unconditionally.
On that note...................Have a great day!

I don't have an e-persona. I am who I am. I'll treat you in real life just like I would here. That being said, you are either trying to bait me, or really don't like me. In all actual reality, I don't really give a fuck. :bootyshake: I can't please everyone, and I guess it ain't your lucky day.
