Ordieth Rough Rock Total Posts: 50 Last Post: 1/10/2007 Member Since: 11/12/2006	ok... everyone wins. I will look for a nice solitare. I will hold off on the x-mass proposal, as it seems I am not yet ready for such an endevor. I asked my girlfriend today about some of the ring's I was looking at (and I hope I didn't give anything away) and it is decided that she is going to get a solitare. Now... I have a favor to ask... Of the rings that I showed her, she liked this one the best. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find some other rings of a style like this that I might be able to get idea's from? (I found this ring from this post... What do you think about this e ring?) Please help me to find some unique solitares so that I can be more educated when I go to look at them. Thank you all so much.

If so you might want to look into "sets" where the rings are designed to go together, or else keep in mind the styling of the e-ring so that a band would sit against it. Just my 2 cents...

THAT'S a winner! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

The only one who wins is the woman you love - and if it means THIS much to you to be all poutyfaced over it - DO THE PROCESS TOGETHER. insist upon it. Tell her you cannot do it on your own and you need her to help you.

EBree Ideal Rock Total Posts: 6,656 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 8/31/2005	Good Choice, Ord! As Deco found in the last post, you can get that setting from Stardust Diamonds (top row, fifth over): Stardust Diamonds B1023 Here's a tension set ring with the same "swoopy" detail (but without the princess stones underneath): Gelin Abaci ...I could have sworn I saw a thread recently where a guy had a swoopy tension set ring made for his girlfriend with a matching wedding band. Let me see if I can find it!

decodelighted Ideal Rock Total Posts: 8,629 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 7/27/2005	I LOVE that one Ebree!!! I think that is so fluid and elegant and GORGEOUS!!! I think that co. makes matching wedding bands too Which I think will be VERY difficult for that first choice (avil at Sun) However ... if I was going to get a "unique solitare" right now - it would ABSOLUTELY be this Sholdt Design ring It's funny ... we were just watching the final season of Alias on DVD and I fell in love love love with Sydney's e-ring ... but couldn't figure out what brand/design etc it was ... this is the closest ring I could find to it. CLEAN. SIMPLE. No "clumsy prongy bits". FLUID. POW!

Tell her you cannot do it on your own and you need her to help you. Yea, I know... I am not pouting... i only had a limmited number of smily faces to use. I am not upset to have to wait, or go with a solitare. I am just a little upset that I do not know the woman that I have been dateing for 4 years as well as I thought I did. Please do not take offense to my comments, I am very greatful for all the advice, and input. I just tend to be a proud person sometimes... Thank you for the posts, I will definately look into it... I was looking through some of the rings, and I did see a nice one. I will have to hang on to it and post it later. (I am at work, and it is a little tough to get back to the web page....) Thank you all again.

poptart Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,858 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 5/23/2006	Don't feel badly that you didn't know what she wanted. It sounds like even she doesn't know exactly what she wants and changes her mind frequently as you said. You would have felt worse if you were under the impression that you DID know, paid for the ring, and she hated it. I think it shows that you do know your GF very well because you had the good sense to ASK before making a purchase! M ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Don't take life too seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway."
