Hi Ladies, I haven't posted in a while because I have been patiently waiting for more developments. My boyfriend and I have been start to seriously shop for rings over the last few months. Yesterday he said he wanted to go back to one of the first stores we went to visit a ring we had liked when we first started looking. I'm so thrilled that he wants to go shopping again (esp. a return visit!) but here is the issue: Since then, we have visitied another store where I am sure I have found the one (setting and stone are both there purchased separately and custom made). I still like the ring at the first store, but LOVE the one at the second store, and the prices are better overall. The problem is that for some reason he seems to prefer buying the ring, diamond and setting together ready-made - so he is partial to the ring at the first store even though it is 2k more. I have tried before now to convince him that the ring at store #1 is way overpriced for what it is, and that we can get more bang for the buck at store number 2. What should I do? Should we go to store #1 again this weekend so we can both mull over that ring again and so he can see the ring, size etc for the price, then suggest we go back to store #2 so he can see for himself that it is indeed a better deal (and that I love that ring more?). Or should I just express how excited I am that he wants to go shopping again but gently let him know that I'd really prefer to just go to store #2 when he's ready to buy because I love that ring more and know we can get more for the money? I don't want to seem ungrateful. Thoughts?

i really wouldn't budge on number 2, just go look at the first,,, then go to the second and be overwhelming excited about your ring preference maybe from your over excitement, he'll get it, but if he doesn't get it, then just have a sit down for sure. you're not being ungrateful and after all you will be the one the wearing it and i'm sure he wants you to be happy with the ring as well.
