Hello Ladies! Little about me... I am a student finishing my masters in Special Needs Education and Early Childhood Intervention. My boyfriend is a Golf Professional, working for a local Country Club where we live. We have been together for two years, living together for about a year now. A few weeks ago after a very romantic dinner he asked if I was up for a bit of shopping. Now I am not a shopper at all but I told him sure anyway and he ended up taking me to a jewelry store to pick out an engagement ring! It was perfect until he started talking about diamonds....
I know diamonds are suppose to be a girls best friend but for some reason I am petrified of wearing a real diamond. I told him I would rather have a beautiful setting with possibly a colored gemstone instead but he kept pushing for a bigger diamond. Finally I broke down and told him there was no point to keep looking because our budget wasn''''t going to fit what we both wanted. We went to bed angry but when I woke up I knew everything was going to be better. We compromised and I picked out the most beautiful setting, one I have wanted for what seems like forever, with the condition that we would look at gemstones to replace the center stone later.
Am I crazy to not want a diamond on my hand? My setting is the Tacori 2620PR. I just think it would look beautiful set with a colored (preferably green) gemstone. And does anyone know of a beautiful HARD gemstone that comes in a lighter shade of green?
