honestly it depends. But, if a chick puts a money value on it, um tread cautiously. It's the symbol behind it not the size (of the ring)

The 'rule' is 2 months.

I wouldn't buy an engagement ring until after I'd been married for at least a year, though, and even then, I wouldn't spend more than $500-600.

Do not buy an expensive engagement ring or wedding ring unless both of you are totally debt free, (no mortgage, student loan, car note, etc.) and have money to burn.  Obviously, I’m speaking from my own values, but she should be thrilled with landing a good man—big bling is unnecessary.  A tasteful, modest, symbolic ring is all that is required.  If you want to spend big on a ring wait until you have been together 10 or 20 years—then you will truly have something to celebrate.

I don’t want to be a wet blanket, but remember more than half of all marriages end in divorce and finances/debt is a frequent cause.

Be sure to exchange credit reports before you say I do.

Before that there was non of this. Of course now you have to spend half your salary and sell all of your shit, so the bitch your about to marry can have a bigger ring then her girlfriends. That is of course if your a chump.

the rule of thumb with americano girls,,

engagment ring with wedding ring never ever shoudl cost more than 2k,, always aim in the range of 600-1500,,NOW! this is the test of the americano girl,,most of the whores around want 2 karat or 1 karat ,,you need bring them 3/4 of karat or 1 karat total diamond and see the true love of her to you ,,if she truly inlove she will accept a ring from foil! she will tell you that too,,

notice ,,the americano who spend the most for the ring is the one who get divorce the fasteest,,and usualy has the smallest cock ,,never ever put the money on a ring before you know if its true love,,and none of you in americnaa know if its true love because you marry after 2 months ,,

in any case 1 k should be the range and ,,ofcourse the fake tits,, fake blond hair ,,fake 2 inch acrylac french manicure,,fake tan,, will not like it but you never marry those you only fuck them and humiliate them or preferebly humiliate them with out fuckin them by putting them in place since you bodybuuildr and bodybuild always has better body than any girl since we are narcsists

you payed on a girl 16k? ,,if she is americana big no no,,they alwys divorce fast and flip fast ,,americnaa girls are super super crazy and in 90% cases fake,,hopefuly you got one in the 10% that is kind of normal and only moderatly medicated,,for yor own sake,,but 16 k is way too much 1600 it more normal preferanly 800!

love neveer mesurre by the ring on her hand ! and 1000 dollaros ring can be look like 4000 dolaros ring if she has good taste! the idea behind marriage is the love and commitment and long lasting thing,,in americnaa with generation nothignness nothing last,,the whore cheat all the time,,they have low level of stimulation ,,they are always getting fat on you because their genetic tend to be big and fat so they gain on you weight always! especialy if hot to begin with and pretty face...and! they tend to really be too friendly flirty ,,its just the lack of father in life and even if they have father it is usually involve with some form of striction or abuse of some kind

I spent around $16K and I got a deal.  I waited until I could pay cash, as I would never finance anything but a house or car.
what a fake fkn relationship!! i bet it had to be a main part of conversation repaeted often about the value of the ring.
the words "16 thousand dollars" are main words used when she tells her friends and families THEN SECONDLY comes how excited she is to marry you after the words "16 thousand dollars".

you "must" love her if you spent that much. and she "must" be sure of it now...ya know...cos you spent so much

16k. stupid fkn men today.
just by that one line in that post you typed, you told the life story of your relationship, who wears the pants and who has the final word in arguments.

do u wanna knwo a true women? true love? the first signs of "yep, this is gona be a long marriage"....she absolutely goes mental on you for spending so much on her as soon as she heard $16k. but of course, throughout the relationship she will have given you signs of this along the way with birthday presents and valentines etc which shows in the past she has LOVED...LOVED!!! expensive presents.

all materialistic. fake.

First off dickhead, she doesn't know how much the thing cost, unless she gets it appraised, but whatever.  The ring is mostly for me, call it insecurity or whatever, but it's just like having a nice car, house or whatever.  She makes great money, I do well for myself, it didn't break the bank, so  :-\it's no big deal.  Now, if she didn't work, and I was broke, then that would be a different story, but it's not the case here.  I guess to each his own.

you payed on a girl 16k? ,,if she is americana big no no,,they alwys divorce fast and flip fast ,,americnaa girls are super super crazy and in 90% cases fake,,hopefuly you got one in the 10% that is kind of normal and only moderatly medicated,,for yor own sake,,but 16 k is way too much 1600 it more normal preferanly 800!

love neveer mesurre by the ring on her hand ! and 1000 dollaros ring can be look like 4000 dolaros ring if she has good taste! the idea behind marriage is the love and commitment and long lasting thing,,in americnaa with generation nothignness nothing last,,the whore cheat all the time,,they have low level of stimulation ,,they are always getting fat on you because their genetic tend to be big and fat so they gain on you weight always! especialy if hot to begin with and pretty face...and! they tend to really be too friendly flirty ,,its just the lack of father in life and even if they have father it is usually involve with some form of striction or abuse of some kind

as long as I want if she knows whats good for her  >:( >:(

(i wonder how long it'll take her to see this and reply)

3 days?  ;D

And just so you know, I don't care how much you spend on a ring for me. Can't do much with a ring and there are so many more important things to spend money on. Just make sure to upgrade to some nice countertops in our kitchen so I'll have something pretty to look at while I make your sammiches all day.  ;)

Diamond prices are artificially inflated because of the cartel controlling prices. An alternative is Moissanite which has more fire, more sparkle and is tougher and almost as hard. Check it out. Price is much less than diamonds but looks as good as them or better.

A 1 carat diamond of high quality will cost about $10000. You really have to know the industry to get a good deal. At auction these stones will go for 1/3 to 1/2 retail. You pay at least 200 to 300 percent too much if you buy retail.

gh15 is amusing when discussing American women. However, don't be a cheapskate and get something she will be proud to wear and show people.

Why don't you just ask her to show you what she likes ? ... unless you're trying to make it a surprise I think knowing what she likes is more important to think about than price right away ... if you give her an ugly ring .. no matter how much you paid won't make a difference
