SO decided just over a year ago now that he wanted to get married (I knew a few years before that, but I was waiting for him to be ready). He''s been saving for the past year, and a few months ago we both started looking at rings online.
Yesterday, we visited a lovely jeweller who had a variety of rings. We found 2 we both liked and that were within budget. We talked to him for a while about the rings, then SO kicked me out of the store to talk ''business'' (I know what the budget is, so I''m not sure what this was about!).
Anyway, until this point I have known exactly where we were at. Now, I am in the dark, and I will be until he pops the Q. I have no idea if he went back yesterday afternoon and ordered one, or if it will take him another 6 months to decide between the 2 (he''s a hopeless decision maker!). I''m coping with it better than I thought I would so far, but I am strongly resisting the urge to go back and look in the window to see if either ring is gone!
I know he doesn''t have it yet, because I have enormous hands so whatever he buys will need to be resized. But, theoretical
How do others cope with this?
PS: For those who are interested, one of the rings was a 1.37ct Dark blue sapphire with 2 small pear diamonds on either side. The other was a 5 stone ring, with 3 sapphires and 2 diamonds (not sure on sizes sorry). I would never have thought to try on the 5 stone, but once I had it on my hand it was so lovely. I have big hands, so wider rings suit me better, and this one sat quite high. I loved them both!
