BackStory: So MY fiance and I are currently over a 1000 miles apart beacuse he isin the ARMY. And since we had a fairly new relationship our decision to get married kinda came about while he has been away. He secretly had a ring made "That is suppose to be my filler ring" but looks more like my wedding band. AND I LOVE IT!!!! Well we have been discussing our "NEW Rings" and I made the comment that I didnt really want a new ring just maybe something that will go along with the one I now HAVE!!! and this guy says that I HAVE to get a new ring… . I really like my ring now because I know how hard he worked to come up with a design and how he had to use some leave t be able to go to Kuwait to have it made and everything..IT has OUR history in it and I really dont want to part with it for something Fladhy…(i think thats where we disagree more in OUR taste in Jewelry!!!!)

I just wanted to ask a very simple question …So How DO I STRESS for him not to get something else that doesnt compliment what I have now…..P.S. He and my mom talk all the time and he has emailed her pics of the design of the new ring and she says that it is totally different….

HeLP please I only have 2 more months before he completes this MISSION as he puts it!!!

I was very specific with my then boyfriend.  You will have to:

  • trust him, and love what he gives you because it’s from the heart

  • tell your mom exactly what you want and have her try to communicate it

  • be honest, say hun I want to be sure we are on the same page about the rings, this is what I want, please try to get that for me.

Even if you really love this ring, I think you’ll love whatever he gets you.  Besides, who says this can’t be a right-hand ring?

I agree with sapphire.  That ring will always be special even if it isn’t your wedding band or ering.  Just think that you will have more sentimental jewelry to pass on to your kids!

Also- if he did such a good job with the ‘placeholder’ imagine what he’ll do for the actual ring!!

Can this be your wedding ring?  It’s hard to see it well in the pictures, but it sure looks like a wedding ring.  Then he just needs to design the engagement ring so that it goes with this one.  Or as a flip in tradition, allow this one to be the engagement ring, and let him put the other one on your finger on wedding day.

So fun!
