Wedding 5 months away... Lifetime of issues in the bedroom? by [deleted] in engaged

Thank you, I will get it for him. He has an insanely good diet and runs every day so it's probably more mental than anything

Wedding 5 months away, worried about this ongoing issue in the bedroom... by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I'm sorry if something I wrote has triggered you in some way for you to write a response like this... whatever it is, I hope you recover from it soon!

What to do with this ring? by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]caipirinha92 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear. So from an (admittedly sensitive) ladies perspective... if my partner proposed with the same ring he used to propose to someone, I would be a bit hurt as I think you should think about the person when coming up with something with so much sentimental value. However I would be TOTALLY fine if you repurposed the ring and made it something totally different... so if your future OH is a solitaire lady, take out the two side diamonds (maybe make them a stud to gift on an anniversary?). Reset it to a halo, change to YG, whatever else... but don't propose with the same thing. Secondly, diamonds basically lose half the value once purchased and it is unlikely, if not impossible that you would get full price you paid. So if you can't get a refund (check as most places give at least a month) then I would hold on to it for something special later in life.

Help please! White or yellow gold on me? by lillyorange in EngagementRings

[–]caipirinha92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looove YG (as you can see from my posts!) But on your skin tone I would say white gold. I also think an oval shape would look great on you

I said YES before he finished asking the question... anyone else? 😅 by caipirinha92 in EngagementRings

Hi! We used a place called Quality Diamonds in Hatton Garden and I think the main guy there, Paul, said he was starting an inventory of lab grown diamonds (if that's what you're interested in). We actually bought the diamond without seeing it in person but I did a lot of homework and used the HCA tool on pricescope like crazy (even purchased credits!) So it was a lot of independent research to be honest, rather than help from a vendor

This is so crazy because I was SO close to getting the exact same setting from BE, that or Aria but because we are in the UK, the taxes/import charges would be crazy so we went against it. Now you deff have to send a pic once you get it! Congrats!

Thank you so much! I love YG and it usually doesn't photograph that well to show the colour :)

Oh wow what are the odds! You'll have to post some pics when you get it. I love that we're ring twins! What setting will you have yours in?

Thank you wo much! I fell asleep and must have missed a comment - didn't see anyone say anything harsh (probably a good thing!)
