A question I wanted to ask. Guys, do you feel pressured to go all out and spend thousands on an engagement ring to please your girl?

Girls, does the money dropped on the ring actually increase how much love you feel for your man?

I dont have a ton of money in my amount to spend but the ring I suggested for my GF the other day she said was to small so that was sad and now I don't know what to do. So, what's your felling about this?

As a married couple this is one of thousands of life decisions you will have to make. Do the two of you generally agree on how to spend/save money? Many couples divorce because of money issues. The two of you need to communicate about; how much for the rings, how much for the wedding/honeymoon? and then your future home. My husband put my ring on a lay away plan at the jewelery store and went in and made payments every paycheck, because we still had to pay rent, food, utilities, car payments etc., but we chose the ring together and decided on an amount before hand. The two of you need to sit together and talk about how much you both can afford (as you will need a wedding ring as well that she could buy) Have a plan that will not put you in dept for the rest of your married life! Good luck!

As a guy,i think that the ring should be symbolic(something classy gold with a small rock with the promise that as soon as you will afford something expensive you will buy it for her).I wonder if your gf is more excited about the engagement itself or the ring.I am not married,i never offered rings or expensive jewelry to women,when i encountered ladies that wanted only expensive stuff i dumped them :D lol

I have nice, but not super expensive or other the top, engagment and wedding rings. I think it's important that they are nice quality (won't turn her finger green), but I don't think they need to be top of the line with huge stones.
