    O-M-G!   I just received an e-mail from Mister and he wanted to know how I felt about these e-rings.  Wow... he's really looking without any pressure from me.  I don't mention the e-ring or the date of the engagement at all.  I do often mention things about the wedding itself... today I've been on the hair style and make-up craze.  LOL!!!  What do you all think?  Which one do you like?

    And more.  He sent me quite a few more, but I'll save those for later.  He has a thing for heart-shaped stones.  LOL!!

    The third ring (rose gold with purple/pink gemstone) is TDF. I think it's totally beautiful and would LOVE to have that on my finger! I love that rose gold is so unique and that it's a mix of diamonds and gemstones. Handsdown that would be my pick!

    You are so lucky that your BF is ring shopping! Yay!!!

    (Coincidently, I'm in the bay area too! lol...)

    I like the 1st, 3rd, and 6th. The only one I'm not sure about is the 2nd but they are all unusual and beautiful!

    @CurlyDreamer, there seem to be a lot of Bay Area bees on WB.  I love rose gold and I did tell him that I want rose gold setting with a pink sapphire stone.  I did show him my dream e-ring.  So he has an idea of what I want.  I am totally shocked he is really looking without me initiating it all.  I guess I am lucky.  I'd feel more luck when that ring is on my left finger.

    LOL!!!  He just sent this one and it's his favorite.  I don't quite have the heart (no pun intended) to tell him I don't like it.  What's up with him and these heart-shaped stones.  I've never, EVER, EVA, EVA, EVA, gave him any idea I'd like something shaped into a heart.  LOL!!!  How do I tell him to stay away from the hearts?

    @Minutiae - LOL!!!  I was thinking of saying something like, "Your heart is big enough for me.  NO need to buy me another."  LOL!!! 

    @Hive - Okay... Now I think he's teasing me.  He just sent this one.  SMH.  He's joking right?  I'd love this for my right hand; but not as an engagement ring.  SMH.

    @naangel55 - It is awesome, if he's serious.  For some reason, I now think he's teasing me becaues I've sent him numerous e-mails today with hair style and make-up looks for the holiday parties we're attending this year (and also hinted that they'd look fabulous for the wedding).  That last ring had to be a joke.

    lmbo i told M: you know i don't like marquise or heart shaped stones, right? he was like what's that... i showed him pictures and he was like ugh that's ugly.. and then he chooses cushion cuts as his favorite (SCORE!!) which happened to be one of my top faves ever since ashley judd got hers way back when...

     

    the two rose gold looks are my favorites...

    Call me crazy - but I love the flower ring!!!  (for right hand!)

    re: the heart shaped stone... just joke around and tell him.  Tell him it reminded you of a friend's e-ring and you knew that while it was sweet, it wasn't your style... or some variation of that. 

    He's too cute for sending all those ring pics!

    @Crebre - He must be joking.  He can't think I'd like a heart-shaped ring.  It's something I'd buy my daughters and his daughter; but not for me.  Wait... maybe he's going to propose to my girls too. LOL!!!  I just told him a story I saw on one of the WB boards about a lady's FI proposing to her daughter as well.  I thought it was so beautiful.  He liked it.  Maybe these rings are for both me and the girls.  I already decided I was getting his boys and his daughter a ring.  Not really proposing to them, but something special for them as well to receive at the ceremony.  Wow... I am totally wondering when this family proposal is going to happen.  Now I have itis!  May-itis!!!

    Woohoo! He's looking at rings! I like the 4th one best of your pics. You could do some cool things with bands with that one.

    That is great!  I like that he is looking at the pretty pink stones.  I really like the round ones!  Maybe he will use the heart ones for the girls?

    @91011: i definitely think the heart shapes are girlier... i think that the idea of giving jewelry to the kids is awesome... ours may get a ring, necklace/chain or earrings

    I agree with Corgitales. I would tell him what you like/ don't like so that you may not be disappointed later. My bf and I have the same taste, but while shopping for rings we would send each other things that we like. He had no problem with me telling him what I liked because it only makes him more certain that I will love the ring.

    you HAVE to let him know if you don't like a heart shaped stone.  remember, you'll have that ring forever.  you don't want to regret it.  i'd just say very simply that heart shaped stones aren't exacly your style but you love that he is looking!  and, if he is sending pictures why don't you?? send him one YOU like to give him a good general idea.

    I love the first and third one.  I'm a sucker for something a lil different.  The rose gold one may be my favorite for that reason.  It'll be an eye catcher for sure!  I'd be honest with him in the most sensitive way possible.  Afterall, you're the one wearing it.  I hope it all happens soon.

    I really like the 3rd one. I'm not a fan of the heart-shaped stone though.
