Actually, I''d ask him how he paid for it.

sugar mama

Who told you?

Have you been speaking to my hubby?

 

[vespergirl]

That would never happen - my DH doesn''t wear any jewelry other than a watch. His parents actually offered him a men''s ring with a 3 ct transitional cut in it that his mom inherited some years ago. He turned it down, though, because he knew that he would never wear it, so his mom reset it into a kickin pendant instead.

 

[Kaleigh]

Wouldn''t happen here either. Hubby only wears a watch...

I''d wonder where my husband was and who the man with the diamond ring is. DH is not a jewlery man.

Men who wear bigger diamonds than their wives are overcompensating for ''shortfalls'' elsewhere!

OMG, now that''s funny.

I wouldn''t trust a guy who would wear a bigger diamond than me.. I dunno that seems wrong on so many levels. BUT that''s just ME.

 

[litebrite]

This would never happen. But I would ask for a diamond of equal or greater carat weight to make up for it. Because spouses should be equal

diamond ring than yours?

I would wonder about his vanity and sanity. Men in Texas don''t usually wear bigger ''jewels'' than their woman.

Well, some do. But that''s a whole ''nother style gone wrong. Supersized studs, real or fake, in a guy''s ears. Mmmmm, no.

I would think he had been hanging around my brothers too much.

We went to dinner with one of my brothers recently and I noticed his wedding ring was different. Turns out he now has three--one white gold, one yellow gold and one with diamonds--because God forbid that his wedding ring would not match his outfit. the world would end!

He spent so much money on his wife''s diamond, that they had to live with my mother for two years after they were married. Not long after they did buy a house, he started wanting to upgrade her--he''s the only person I know outside of p''scope who uses this word and grasps this concept. My SIL said, No. She let him buy her (modest) diamond stud earrings and then said she didn''t want anymore. So at that point, he started buying the bling for himself. I am sure that one day the diamond bigger than his wife''s is coming!

At dinner he remarked on every woman in the room''s jewelry, (as well as the rest of their outfit)--whose looked like moissanite, whose was definitely CZ, whether white gold or yellow gold is more stylish, Yada yada yada. Meanwhile his wife and teenage daughters (who have less clothes than he does and shop less often) rolled their eyes and my SIL kept telling me, as she always does, "you know, your brother is so shallow''. This is pretty much like what my mother used to do, concerning my father, who was much the same about his clothes (he took over my closet when I was a teenaged girl because he needed it more than I did, he had so many more clothes) but didn''t buy jewelry for himself only because it was so looked down upon at that period. He bought my mother jewelry constantly, though. Even though she never wore any of it. Ever, except for her wedding and engagement ring, one pair of earrings and a necklace with a cross. My father just kept buying it, though, for her to put away at the back of a drawer and never look at again--I think mostly because he liked to hang out in jewelry stores.

To really enjoy this story, you have to realize that my brother is six foot three and built like an NFL fullback (he does also love football) and that my father was so muscular and powerful that my husband said he was scared of him for the whole first two or three years after he started dating me--he said he knew he had to treat me right because my father might beat him up!
It''s some genetic thing probably. I have three sons and of course the only one who loves jewelry (I had to buy him his own stud earrings because he kept borrowing just one of mine) was captain of the wrestling team, is good at every kind of sport (my father was too) and is built like a truck.

My husband is not on this page at all. He''d love for my son to stop wearing the earring, and when we go out together, he lets me talk to my brother about clothes and jewelry while he and my SIL find other topics of discussion.

oh DF is back

i suggested a tiny diamond on FI''s ring and he was even opposed to that, so i doubt he''d ever go for a diamond bigger than mine, if he did, we can trade!

 

[Cehrabehra]

it''s funny that you mention it because right this very minute my husband is wearing my ring on his pinkie lol I put it on him last night so I could do something and I forgot and apparently he slept in it lol He''s quite the pimp you know hehehe

 

[Snicklefritz]

haha! I''d wonder if FI had had a labatomy at work that day. He''s anti-bling for himself.

Oh, how cruel you ladies are!

The guys in my family wear big diamonds...and the ladies havent complained about any short falls!

 

[Londongirl1]

At first I'd feel upset because it would mean he must have completely LOST HIS MIND

, but once I'd taken him to the doctor and he's taken his medication I'd be over the moon and wearing my new rock
