Haven|1457714373|4003445 said:I totally have this. I say to my husband at least once a day, "Can you believe how amazing this stone is?" My current ring is an upgrade, and while I loved my original stone, I longed for a better cut. I've been wearing my upgrade for five years and that new ring excitement hasn't faded yet. I think this is a sign that I am a sucker for a beautiful diamond, in the way someone else might be a sucker for an awesome car. Or a great pair of shoes. I have rock love, and always have.

I am calling this RDSS, which is a very happy disease that is easy on the budget.
Anyone else experience this wonderful syndrome?

Kenny, your diamond history looks like the stock market report!
What was the thought process for going from 2.26 to 1.51, if I may ask.

So far it's as impossible as an OEC, but I'll post a few.
I am still trying to decide on a "forever" setting. OMG the prongs on this look huge in marco LOL. Needless to say, the stone is very well protected!
