My husband and I have been together since 2007 and have recently been married.
When I chose my engagement ring we weren't really looking and I was just getting an idea of what I liked without being too pushy on the subject. At this stage we had been together for 5 years and were just ‘talking’ about getting engaged.
When we were looking at rings on this particular day I tried on a half carat diamond engagement ring and instantly fell in love. In price was a little over $2,000.
We holidayed later that year and he proposed with that same ring I had my eye on.
This year I went into the same store and was buying a pair of earrings and the lady mentioned to me that I could ‘upgrade’ my engagement ring by trading in my current one and then I could pay the extra. I entertained the idea and tried on a 1 carat ring and fell in love even more.
Don’t get me wrong…I love my engagement ring I have now however seeing this ring with a stone that is double the size has me thinking would it be ok if I did trade it in for this new ring.
How do I go about asking him for a new ring without hurting his feelings?
