HI! Well my wonderful fiance proposed with a 1.51 ct E VS1 EX/EX Signature Ideal asscher engagement ring, but I knew he was having some financial trouble so I told him to send it back and get me a 1.09 ct E VS1 VG/VG Signature Ideal cut asscher.
Ok so we did that and now that he is out of his financial trouble I would like to upgrade to a 1.7ct. I tried on a 2ct and it was so gaudy, in the asscher it really looked fake. A 2ct looked wonderful with a cushion cut, but I am in love with the asscher.
QUESTION: Am I being selfish? He wants to get me WHATEVER will make me happy. But I have always been very financially tuned, meaning I never go into debt and if I do I funnel every penny I earn to get out of it. If we upgrade we will be paying the new diamond off for 6 months!! Now that seems like a bit much for a newly engaged couple to go into debt for? I really really want a larger diamond but maybe I should just settle and put the money towards buying our house or a car or something.
