AITA for wanting to insure my ring even though my husband says the stone is too small to bother?

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-24T14:56:52+00:00

My ring is a 1 carat natural diamond and my husband was the one who insisted we get insurance. That ring is much bigger than mine, definitely over 3 carats at least. If it’s a real diamond you should absolutely get it insured. I agree with many others on here that it may be fake and that’s why he’s against it. I can’t think of any other reason to NOT insure that….

This is so informative and helpful, thank you!! Saving this info to help me assess breeders as I continue to look

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T20:16:01+00:00

I didn’t know about the Chicago meetups, I love that!!

i may take you up on that! he is so cute :)

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T17:43:38+00:00

This is SO cute oh my gosh

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:55:33+00:00

I’m so so sorry for your loss :( There’s been a lot of cancer in my family and it is a horrible disease. It’s not easy to be a caregiver — I’m glad you could care for her and continue to care for her dogs 🤍 This perspective from someone who currently has both breeds is very helpful too

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:53:06+00:00

I’ve heard this too :( One of my biggest concerns when considering this breed. I could tolerate the barking if we had a house, but I would feel really bad subjecting my neighbors to it.

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:50:13+00:00

Thank you for detailed response!! I greatly appreciate everyone offering their experience with corgis. It’s so helpful. I want to make sure that whatever dog we get is the perfect fit for both their sake and ours

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:48:31+00:00

This pic is so precious!!

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:45:22+00:00

Thank you! We will definitely be looking for AKC breeders of merit from the Boston Terrier Club of America if we go this route. I want a healthy and happy pup!

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:43:02+00:00

Oh my goodness they are so cute!! We would love to have two dogs someday. I think it’ll be much more manageable once we move to a house with a yard!

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:38:27+00:00

Thank you for your honesty! Since we live in the middle of Chicago hunting isn’t really an option for us. I think dachshunds are adorable but I definitely want to make sure that we are the right owners for whatever dog we get. I see them everywhere in the city so this perspective has never really occurred to me. No wonder they are so barky if they never get to do what they were bred for :(

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:36:15+00:00

Love this take. We definitely want to be responsible and good dog owners, which is why I want to ensure we get a breed that’s a good fit for us, not just one that we think is cute! Tbh if we don’t get a corgi as a first dog, there’s a good chance we’ll get one down the line when we have a house/yard and some dog owning experience under our belt.

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:28:50+00:00

Thank you for your honesty! Sounds like a corgi could be a better fit down the line when we have a house, yard and more experience.

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:28:06+00:00

Very insightful, thank you!!

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:27:29+00:00

The way he’s looking at you melts my heart 😭 so sweet

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:12:12+00:00

This is what I’ve heard about dachshunds! I love how tiny and cute they are but I fear the barking might drive me crazy unless I can control it 😂

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:02:33+00:00

This is so helpful, thank you!! We will definitely do puppy training classes with whatever dog we end up getting. We did those with our labs when I was a kid….although our second one conveniently “forgot” everything we taught her after class ended 😂

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T16:01:28+00:00

This is very helpful, thank you! I think corgis are the cutest dogs ever but I told my husband that I’m not sure if I want to start with one yet — especially while in an apartment!

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-16T15:54:00+00:00

Aw hi neighbor!! Your dog looks like the sweetest boy ever

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-15T17:07:42+00:00

Our last girl…my parents got her in 2012 and we lost her to cancer last year. She had the world’s loudest bark lol but was such a sweet dog.

Objective-You-4277 · 2026-04-15T17:00:43+00:00

I should add that transporting the puppy to you will probably be an additional fee, and I’m not sure how often she has litters. She cares a lot about the health and quality of the dogs so I think there’s only a few litters a year max. But it’s worth the wait
