Amen! Married nearly a decade and no diamond ring exchanged. My wife and I both agrees on the Diamonds are Bullshit philosophy and decided not to burden our broke selves with even more debt, thereby ensuring marriage problems down the road.

Screw peer pressure, yet another sign we were right for each other.
