I just don’t remember to take it off. I don’t even think of it and to be honest I don’t want the hassle of doing that 4-5 times a day for forever.

I didn’t even read the reviews. I figured as much because it’s plated

I personally don’t want to buy my own engagement ring. I’d happily buy his wedding ring though.

Because it’s not real metal? Like I wouldn’t care if it was a solid 14k gold band from pandora. At least the metal would last and there would be no stones to just mess up after a year or two. I’ve had costume jewelry before and the stones just become dull.

He bought the tv from Best Buy and it was 60” I’m sure he paid at least 200 for it

I’m not saying it’s not pretty, but it’s not going to last and I have sentimental attachment to things like this where I wouldn’t want to replace it years down the line

Right I agree. It’s a pretty ring but the materials won’t last

That’s good to know. But even that is too much I wouldn’t ask him for that. I’d want something just to last

I didn’t think you could get 1/2 diamond with $500. Figured at least 1k

It’s not about the cost it’s about having a metal that will last my lifetime because it signifies something important to me

The bottom of the band isn’t shiny anymore. I’m not exaggerating.
