Hmmm...thought I would get your thoughts on this.
A close friend of mine is looking for rings with her significant other, and I suggested that she take a look at PS. I told her that it is full of useful information, tutorials and very knowledgeable diamond fans!! PS helped my bf and I with our diamond hunt, and I thought I was helping out.
My friends response was rather surprising. She said she would rather not learn about diamonds because then she would become "overly knowledgable" about and then she would then miss the beauty of them. I can understand that one may get caught up in all the facts and may become picky.....but I do not think that having at least a basic knowledge about diamonds is to become "overly knowledgable". She really doesn''t know much about diamonds....she asked what cut the stone we picked was, and I said "excellent"..and she said "No, is it round? Square?". I just don''t want someone to dupe her!!!!
I just thought it was a bit odd.
I learnt what I could from PS and then we went from there...I didn''t become picky and overlook the beauty of diamonds. I had a sense of security, because I knew that the money being used wisely..especially for such a symbolic gift.
Her perogative, I guess!
