To all those married Monkeys out there.
How did you guys decide on a place to buy an engagement ring? Recommendations from friends or just randomly go to jewelers and find a ring you could afford? Or hit up a big name brand store and hope to not be bent over the counter by the salesman? Seen some reasonable stuff online on what I assume are reputable 'online' stores...but pretty weary of something that I can't see in person....so pretty sure i'll steer clear of that route.
And to those wise asses that will prob tell me to not get married....me and the gfriend already bought a house together...so I've thought about it long and hard before today She rules, loves bikes, doesnt mind that i spend lots of time doing video away from home, and is a damn fine cook And she also mentioned at one point: "I don't think its fair men don't get anything in an engagement. When we get engaged you'll get a really awesome present from me"
So I have that going for me.....which is nice
