If I ever love someone enough to say something like this without vomiting, she had better say yes. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

itd be even better if he says something that isnt cliche, boring, and fake.

you can pay 1.5k initially, but its the personal setting that shes going to want to get after she accepts that costs a ton of money.

It doesn't matter how much you spend. What's important is that you pick one that you feel she'll like. Does she like white gold or yellow? Most younger women these days like white, but she may be an exception. This is actually as important as the diamond - trust me.

Don't worry about how big the rock is, or whether it's super high quality of any of that garbage. If she loves you & wants to marry you, and is worth marrying, she won't give a crap. I don't know one woman who thinks her engagement ring is too small.

As for the proposal, I asked my fiance in the dining room after we had a quiet dinner. We're not public, outgoing people, so this was perfect for us. You don't need to do something super elaborate, but make sure it's something that suits you both. She'll remember it regardless.

Good luck.

why cause i am not married or have high standards of what a marriage should be?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think its because you say you're against marriage, only because of the divorce rate. That high divorce rate is thanks to far too many people getting married after a month (or less, thank you Vegas) and not actually understanding how their intended "better half" will fit into their lives. There's more issues of course, but you have to be pretty bitter, as you admit, to be opposed to the concept in general.

To the OP - I don't have any suggestions, but best of luck to you...most people don't ask the question unless they know the answer, so I'm sure you'll be fine. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

First congratulations on finding someone you love and who obviously loves you back.
You both are just out of college, no careers yet, you have not had to worry about money, mortgage, bills, being together 24/7... Do you even live together? College life is easy compared to what you are going to face now. Make sure you know what you are doing. Love is not enough to make a marriage work, I learn that the hard way.

Just because Tom Shane says that, doesn't mean he's really your friend.

boy this is so true isn't it mslif? Marriage is a jumble of fun times and excrutiatingly difficult times when it comes to financial problems.

My husband was very smart when he proposed. He said 'let's go shopping for a ring honey.' I loved this because I had a good idea what style ring I liked and he had no idea. It was the quickest shopping trip in history. We walked into Service Merchandise and I immediately pointed to the one. Took all of half an hour including the car ride. It cost him a whopping $600. We're still together.
