Fuck that. An engagement ring is something she'll have for the rest of her life. You will never be able to give her an engagement ring for the first time again. Stretch a little. Show her how much she means to you. Yes, it's materialistic, but it's also important to most women.
We picked our own because we each have to wear it every day, might as well like it. Been together a decade, married for 6 years. Sometimes big sweping "romantic" gestures are for the movies.
Yeah my wife saw her ring before I paid for it. But I still spent a decent amount of money for it. I sold my paid off car and financed a used car to pay for her ring. I don't regret it one bit. We've been married for a decade and a half and she still adores her ring. Different people are different though, and you should know what kind of person you're proposing to, long before you propose. My wedding ring was $30 on Amazon. LOL. It's just a titanium jobbie that works perfectly for me.
I wanted a new car anyways, and rates on car loans are way better than rates on credit cards or jewelry loans. How is using equity from paid-off assets being bad with money? She's happy, I'm happy, and we're doing well.
It's funny to me how you're downvoted on this, sounds like you made a great investment in love and happiness.
It seems online dwellers are so caught up in their own arbitrary social norm that they seem to forget that there's more than one path through life.
Keep on doing what's right for you!
Thank you, and I agree. It's interesting to me that the majority opinion on this site is that hoarding money is greedy and evil, yet those same people also refuse to spend it on any major life events. What good is our money to us if we can't use it to make our loved ones feel appreciated, and our major life events special?
The rest of the marriage**
