OKAY! So I am happy to say that my BF has my ring. Well not yet, but I was on James Allen one day and saw this gorgeous Cushion. All the specs. I had been looking for. Then Dave, a VERY helpful customer service rep., sent me an actual picture, certificate, etc. I fell in love and I think the BF did too, mainly because I did and it was in our price range and all the specs he wanted. Not to mention being apart of pricescope gave us the benefit of a discount, I LOVE this place. It is a 1.02 D VS1 Ideal Cut Cushion, completely eye clean, set in a plain 2mm knife-edge platinum solitaire, I have size 5 hands, wanted something small/proportional. While I am sure the picture doesn''t do it justice for what it will look like in person. I am being tortured knowing that my BF is making the wire transfer for it today. I don''t know when I am going to get it, and I dont want to. But just knowing it is coming is the worst, almost worst than knowing he is going to buy it. Not to mention, since it has to be signed for it is being shipped to me at work since my boss won''t care. It should get here next week, I will have a better date once they receive his wire transfer. But I would NEVER sneak a peek. I just told him to make sure he loves it, before the 30-day policy is up. I don''t think it will happen anytime soon, I think he has a date set in his mind somewhere in the next two months...don''t know what but it must be special, he is a lot better at keeping secrets than me. But in turn I am on edge.

I am just happy he worked with me to pick what we both liked and wanted! Especially after almost a year of saving and searching. I think his only problem is that I know what it looks like, as if I hadn''t been dreaming of my cushion in my setting I have had choosen forever. But I had to explain while I know what the two separate pieces look like, when they are together and he is on that one knee nothing will ruin that moment and the how pretty the ring is together. Assuming our ring turns out as hoped.

So now I must wait....I will keep you guys posted and with pics. hopefully in the next few months. Maybe he will break and in the next few weeks.
 
Hopefully it will be on your hand soon and we can see pics of it. I was kept waiting nearly three months when D had the ring but the time flew by!
 
What an exciting time for you!! It''s going to be gorgeous and I''m sure it will be well worth whatever wait you have, for the ring but more importantly for the man! Congrats!!!

Congratulations!! How exciting!!
 
Thanks for all you comments!

Bee: I hoping it goes by fast. But since we are moving, getting a puppy, and he is graduating...I have a lot to distract me.

Gwendoyln: I agree I think most of my excitement comes from finally being able to call him "fiance"

Italiahaircolor: THANKS! Very exciting

It is nice to have people to tell my news too since I can''t really tell anyone else because he still needs to ask my mom (which she is well aware of our intentions just do it officially and he wants to show her the ring). And I want to keep it as much as a surprise as possible so I am just trying to pretend he wont have it.

*Although I say this as I am researching appraisers in my area, and getting my information ready for him so he can submit it to Jewelry Mutual for insurance. But hey got to be prepared, and I don''t think he has thought of these things*
 
Ooh so exciting!!

I waited about 2 months. I am not a patient person, so it was rough, but exciting, too. Yaaay!
 
It is a totally exciting time! I''m still waiting for my ring to be done and its killing me!!
 
Welcome to the club!!

C bought the setting (I picked out) 5 months ago, started paying for the diamond(he picked out... I haven''t seen it) about 4 months ago... and it''s looking like its still going to be a few months for me. I certainly hope your stay is MUCH shorter than mine!!

Hello Everyone! Thanks for the comments. All I have to say is one of the worst feelings is waiting for your wire transfer to go through...OMG! First thing I hear from my BF is that he doesn''t know if he did it right and so we both spend the whole night paranoid. LOL but then I emailed Dave, from JamesAllen.com and he said they got it. I could breathe again. Lol just have to wait for it to be shipped.

Anyway,

SarahLovesJS: Thanks for your comment! I know it is going to be rough but I am just looking forward to a glorious outcome. And hoping he doesn''t make me wait too long. Although now I think he feels like has some leverage to joke with me about! He has been requesting a LOT more back rubs. lol

LegacyGirl: It is torture I know!!! Thanks for the support!

Meresal: Oh I hope your wait comes to an end soon! Why must we have to wait for all the good things?!?

I can''t wait to see pics of all your rings when they come!
