How much should you spend on an engagement ring?

[Diane_Windsor]

Edit: I want to get her an emerald because she likes green. What say you ladies?

What say you???? You watch the O'Reilly Factor on FNC don't you?

Since I am Irish I would most definately prefer an emerald, and diamonds are not this gal's best friend. My beagle Copper is LOL !

OP, are you sure that your lady wants a ring and will wear it? Some gals-including meself-just don't like wearing jewelry. I think spending in excess of $200 on jewlery is too much. The money saved could go towards your wedding, or better yet, your honeymoon Do you have any family heirloom rings that you could use?

I know I'm way too young to be talking about this but I had a cool thought conserning an engagement ring. It was on the Simpsons, where Homer gives Marge an onion ring as an engagement ring because he has no money.

I just thought it was a cool way of showing how it's what is inside that matters and not how much the ring cost.

You know, I actually really trust my boyfriend with whatever he picks. He knows I'm simple and I trust his judgement.... maybe I'm just crazy .. about him, that is

As long as your SO wasn't sensitive to the hot oil burning her skin...
