I did not but, then again, I also am not seeing anyone. A lot of folks like to propose on Valentine’s Day because it is such a special day for love but that does not stop me from looking at diamond rings because, really, who does not like diamonds that come in either a ring or a necklace? One thing I’m not really sure about is why they prefer the white gold verses the yellow gold to hold the diamonds. However, I did find a diamond ring setting that I thought looked excellent. I love having the diamonds inlayed in the band itself and have a couple of rings like that now. I wonder how many women actually have an idea of the engagement ring they would like and I also wonder how many men try to find this out before just buying something they we might now like. Anybody have that happen?

Before I proposed I actually took Sam out ring shopping to get an idea of what sort of setting and stone she liked. I was toying with the idea of making a custom ring, and with that in mind picked out the band. Before I could find a proper stone for it, I stumbled upon a great deal for a three diamond ring that I couldnt resist. I bought it, and she loved it when I proposed.
This past weekend, we again went to the jewelery store…this time for wedding bands. Naturally hers had diamonds, mine is relatively plain. Since we spent so much $$ there, no valentines for us! (not to mention our anniv is in a week!)
