Question for women

Well my girlfriend has told me she would rather I get a ring especially for her than regift one from my mom.

Even though ma's got one that I couldn't buy for many moons. Sigh.

But there's one vote to the negative.

Yeah, mom's is probably in the 5 figures. But the lady friend said price doesn't matter, she wants one I picked out for her.

FTR, my first instinct was to do it on my own.

But the ring is dope...

One of the biggest rackets of modern society is that the man has to buy not one but two rings, and the woman just has to buy a friggin band. Not that I would rock any bling.

I came up w an idea in college called cock watches.

So when a girls asks u what time it is you can just whip it out.

That's the only blind I would rock.

I would say moms is the one I picked out. You want another buy it yourself. IMO, Sounds like a cant "sp" to me. I would ditch it. Just sayin.

And already let the cat out of the bag. She would also know I was lying my ass off if I told her I got her that one. She knows what I'm pulling in these days.

If she doesn't like the idea of getting "that" ring, maybe use just the center diamond of the existing ring and put it in a different band. You would still have to spend some money, but you save a bunch by already having the center diamond. The ring is essentially made for her, but using what you have.

If you can't afford a ring, just say you can't afford one. From reading the thread it sounds like you're just making excuses for buying a ring. If you're not ready to fork out some money for a ring, you're not ready for marriage. JMO

Everybodys idea of affording a ring are different. Trust me I can afford a ring. That isn't my concern.

I'll Pm u what I have save just for that. I haven't discussed my income or any of that as i don't want to cone across as an ass.

Well, then buy her a ring. Don't take your mothers. JMO. It'll mean more to your girl IMO.

i wouldn't want the regift. everytime i looked at it i'd think it was a ring that some other man picked out for some other woman, even if it was my mother-in-law (which would probalby make it even worse to be honest). at the end of the day most girls, for any gift - not just the eng. ring, just want something that you picked out just for us from you. that's why girls are suckers for homemade lil gifts or stupid stuff like the stubs off the first movie ticket or whatever. my opinion if mom wants rid of it ask her to give it to you as a gift. you get rid of it and take the money and split it between an awesome ring and an awesome honeymoon. we typically, as long as it's legal, don't care where the money is from, but we'd like for you to do at least a lil work on the gift.

As I have said before this was my initial thought.

I don't want to bring up income, but I do fine.

The ring is from an old failed relationship so that right there is enough for me to say no. Just bad karma imo.
