Help choosing a ring??????
Hi, I've got a little dilema i was wondering if Y!A could help. I'm looking for either a promise or engagement ring...I say either for a reason. The issue is, we are engaged, but not ready to announce it, primarily because her parents arent ready and I'm financially unable at the moment. I used a rose, not a ring, and asked that this means i can keep her mine for good. I told her it's just for now, until I can do it properly. So, with Valentines day looming, as well as an anniversary, I'm looking for a nicer ring than the opal birthstone from this past october, because until the day comes we can TRULY be together, she should at least have a ring, she deserves that much. The question is: should it be a promise ring, or an engagement ring? any thoughts welcome, but please help!
PS: this would not be the "official" engagement ring. We have awhile to go first, but in the meantime, a more serious ring is in order

Why are you screwing around with all these symbolic gifts and rings and secret promises? These are not the sorts of things that actual adults in serious relationships do. All of this is completely unnecessary. You get ONE engagement ring, and you properly propose to her when you both are ready to start planning your wedding AND of course ready to tell everyone, including your parents. Until that day comes, just relax and trust each other. You're acting like you have to mark your territory and make sure she doesn't go anywhere. If your relationship is truly meant to be, then you don't need to go buying her fake engagement rings and pretend to be kinda sorta engaged but not officially. That's ridiculous.

A promise ring cheapens and engagement ring. It almost makes a marriage on the same level as a boyfriend girlfriend relationship.
Save up for the engagement ring, don't even bother with the other. Remember, you are going to be wearing the engagement ring the rest of your life, better make it a good one.

You can always give her a gold and silver ring with diamond accents. We have noticed a lot of couples selecting this option to fit into their budgets. Good Luck with your choice. Another option is to find a nice gold engagement ring and set it with a cubic zirconia which can be replaced with a diamond when you have the funds :-)
