That would cause a REAL problem.diamondseeker2006|1326521789|3102752 said:I am sure he had other stress at the moment. But I have learned over the years that things like ring settings are about as interesting to most men as an engine motor would be to me! So enjoy your upgrade process...he said he wanted you to have it...so don't involve him any more until you can show him how happy you are with the finished ring! I feel like if I bug my husband with details he doesn't care about, he might not be so happy about the next project!
DS's advice was the first thing that popped into my mind Obviously, talk about and sort out between yourselves the hurtful aspects of what he said -- the mad/loud voice, the dismissing of your interests, the tone, impugning your motives -- but those are somewhat separate from *the ring* and all things obsessive and PS. You could have had a similar argument about anything, really. But after sorting that out, keep him in the dark and out of the loupe after the budget is set!
