Tell that to half of men that got married.

One month for the ring and save two for divorce attorney retainer.

Do you realize who set that standard?
THE MOTHERfrickING DIAMOND INDUSTRY.
Buy what you want, don't ask her what she wants, give her the ring you want to give her. She is saying yes/no to you not a fricking ring.

Three months salary for the ring.
My wife would have slapped me if I spent that much. Don't marry a woman who views her ring as a status symbol.

I spent a lot, but only with the premise to get a timepiece of my choice.

Spending what you can afford should be the norm. Nobody should tell you how much to spend. Spending 3 months salary is ignorant for something that does nothing for you. Jewelry is a scam

You’re stupid if you do this. This is some bullshite story Women made up.
I mean let’s say on average most people right out of college make around $50k/ year. That’s a little over $4k/ month. Ain’t no one making $50k should be spending $12,000 on a damn engagement ring.
You’re setting yourself up for completely unrealistic expectations from your spouse. And if you’re worried about her saying no to anything less than a five figure ring, then you probably shouldn’t be marrying her.

Not if you set a budget and stick to your guns but she has to wear it so she should be able to have some input on the style that is within your budget.

A ring doesn't plug a hole. Remember that.

My wife's ring is pretty simple. We were trying to save for our first home at the time we got married.

This seems really stupid to me, but I'm not married so wtf do I know.

11 years later and I'm just getting to 3 months worth of salary.
She's got my boat on her finger.
Stupid of me but it is what it is.

Ten my dumb arse wife got drunk and lost her ring.
She's not getting another one from me
