Some aspects of a wedding are unnecessary inflated...others aren't or don't have to be. The engagement ring is one that is. It's totally worth diving into what is and isn't a sensible expense, but diamonds are unique in that you can get substitutes or alternatives for far cheaper, far more humanely, and in the case of a synthetic, at least, aren't even visibly different.
- arethuza 8y agoA couple of years back my wife (of 27 years) bought a ring for herself with a conspicuous "diamond" on it - I think it cost about £30. Anyone who noticed thought it must have cost tens of thousands and how generous I was.... even though it was fake and she bought it for herself on a whim!
- quadyeast 8y agoThis is great. I would ask my wife if she wanted a fake diamond and new car or a real diamond.
