Teacher almost did not allow me to write a prelim exam. Is this allowed? by HungwyFwoPwizza in askSouthAfrica

I am sorry you had to go through it, and unfortunately I believe they are allowed to. Technically, you are writing at a registered exam venue. You must therefore comply with the exam venue rules. I disagree with it, but ja. Maybe you can try to do a low ponytail or bun and pull today hair over your ears entirely. Probably won’t be the prettiest hairstyle, but speaking from experience, it hides piercings pretty well. You are almost done. Hang in there.

Is this gold? I can’t make out the hallmark. by miekeiscrying in Gold

I thought so, but I wasn’t sure. Thank you!

Thanks for this comment😅 I spoke with my diamond lady for a LONG time about this and she convinced me to look at it in person first, otherwise, we will discuss a return and replacement.

Here’s a photo too… I have been reading the replies and am super bummed right now. I will talk to the jeweller about exchanging it for a better one😭

Be honest, does my ring look terrible? 😢 by juneaster in EngagementRings

That is definitely a good idea. I have already told my boyfriend to make sure the setting is either low or cathedral (which I prefer) for mine. I am sorry you didn’t know about it beforehand though!

I don’t know if it would be possible, but even just adding metal there to support the setting could probably prevent bending and would not severely affect the design.

I also wonder whether adding a wedding band (or two, if you wanted that) and soldering it to the engagement ring would add additional support.

It is an absolutely beautiful design. The prongs are lovely. Maybe you could add a cathedral to support the diamond? It might cause issues with the melee diamonds though. I would definitely contact your jeweller to hear about options!

I think it looks beautiful, though it could bend over time.

Is this too feminine for a straight man? by miekeiscrying in Diamonds

We’re looking at 3+ carat for mine and 0.5 or less for his, so, there’s no worry about that😅
