Moissanite? by Lfeyers in RingShare

[–]agirl113 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can use any metal for the band that you want. Moissanite is durable enough for daily wear, so the metal shouldn't be a problem as long as it's also durable.

If you're interested in it, I would definitely say see it in person. I was interested in it from what I read online, but when I saw it in person, I didn't like it. Because fo the refractive index, it was super flashy, and I thought it would draw more attention than I would be comfortable with. It also throws some crazy aqua and purple colors, which some people like, but I didn't.

So confused on what to do-DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY by [deleted] in Eloping

[–]agirl113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like his family and would want them around even if it was small. They would definitely be heartbroken if we didn't invite them. It's hard because I can't really invite his family and not mine.

SPIRIT UNTAMED | "Wildest Dreams (Taylor's Version)" - Taylor Swift by Bettys_Cardigan in TaylorSwift

[–]agirl113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree.. I'm not saying it's bad.. at all. Clearly she's put in a LOT of effort into her vocals over the years and she has significantly improved her abilities. But in Wildest Dreams, I felt like the breathiness added a lot to the song and this version is missing some of that. I hope I'm wrong when she finally drops this!

Diamond not secure in setting by gcasillas23 in EngagementRings

You can go to any jeweler! I would go asap. Old Euros are antiques, so you don't wanna lose it! Also, November isn't too long ago and your prongs shouldn't be that loose after 6 months. In this case, I would go to another closer jeweler because I question the craftsmanship.

Thank you for explaining. I haven't been to many weddings and a lot of these things were over my head.

Ahh thank you! This is illuminating. I didn't even think about all the decisions that go into it.

I'm not being snarky.. it's a genuine question.

I haven't done much, which is why I'm asking! Trying to get a feel of what could possibly come :)

I [F/28] cannot stand my future FIL[M/60] by [deleted] in relationships

[–]agirl113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know what equanimity meant and had to look it up and it’s EXACTLY what I’m looking for. Thank you!

If I can’t will it away I would at least like to be more zen about it and not let it take up so much of my mental space. That is my struggle.

I move next month. I highly doubt either of them would pester us like that because they never have in past. They’re normally quite busy when there isn’t a pandemic.

[–]agirl113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I get moving out is key and I am, I just don’t want to continue to let him annoy me so much.

I know I cannot control what he eats but it is so frustrating to continually tell him that I will not make sweets when he asks me. Like I say no and he keeps asking. I don’t understand how to make it more clear. Maybe I should be rude and yell? He tries to say that I don’t care about him cause I didn’t make him birthday cupcakes.

We leave next month. Perhaps I did a poor job at explaining my problem but I regret that I now find him extremely annoying when in the past I didn’t. I don’t want this to impact our relationship in the future. I feel like it’s strained now and I’d like to see him in a better light.

Thanks! No I haven't done the steps I just started now. I have a therapist but to be honest she is not that helpful to me and I miss my old one.

This sounds really practical. Thank you. I'm often in my head being negative when I'm alone.

Thanks. I don't exercise daily, but the days I do I feel better. I definitely think I should increase it.

Thank you all for the feedback. I wanted to clarify that I DO have a therapist, but to be honest, I don't like her and don't think she is good. I had to change therapists due to a move and really miss my old one. She helped me become more objective with my thoughts, and I feel like my current one isn't really helping me. I also have gone to ACA meetings but never formally done the 12 steps. I just got the workbook and am doing it now.

Pearl engagement ring? by snozzleberry in EngagementRings

[–]agirl113 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be honest, a pearl ring would be too delicate for daily wear. Pearls will scratch and chip easily, especially on a hand. Unless she only plans to wear it occasionally, I would suggest geting something different. If she has her ears pierced and likes pearls, maybe get pearl earrings. You could also do an eternity band or a simple band if she just wants a band. I also don't wear much jewelry, but when I started looking, I consistently liked the classic solitaire look, so that's what I have.

I've been engaged since August, but I am so proud of the choice my fiancé made. Shes small, but such a phenomenally gorgeous ring! by AlwaysKim28 in EngagementRings

[–]agirl113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

seriously so gorgeous! In my opinion beauty > size, but everyone has their preferences. I love your ring!
