Would you want your future wife to go half on an engagement ring?

Apparently it's a hot new trend.

Wedding website The Knot posed the question of whether it’s a good idea to split the cost, and the response was varied.
“I put money down on my ring,” said a respondent named Jessica. “My fiance and I have been together over 7 years now. We work together for what we want and need. We are a team.”
quote:
“Today, because both the man and woman earn money and contribute to the financials and the decision-making, it’s not surprising that both of them are involved in all aspects [of choosing and paying for the ring],” she told TODAY.com. “I think it makes for a better connection between the two people.”

Seems like a beta move.

So if they call off the engagement, who gets to keep (i.e. pawn) the ring?

One bitches opinion. ONE. Try that with any normal woman.

AKA The only way Jessica was getting a ring was if she paid for it

I would rather just be given a moissanite ring.

My grandparents were poor when they got married and my grandmother didn't get an engagement ring. Later on when they got a little money my granddad didn't see any point in one since they were already married, so my grandmother bought one for herself.

How about instead of spending a shitload of money on a dumb ring, buy something more reasonable. Nobody will ever know the difference between a CZ and a diamond anyway.
Posted on 12/8/20 at 5:43 pm to lsuwontonwrap
well Jessica, if you dont date broke losers they dont need you to support them and help pay for your ring
Posted on 12/8/20 at 5:45 pm to lsuwontonwrap
Considering that my ex wife put in zero on her engagement ring and my future wife will get a ring worth at most half, I’d say it equals out
Posted on 12/8/20 at 6:31 pm to lsuwontonwrap
No way

I didn’t get a ring when we got engaged - I didn’t want him to spend the money, we were very young
We do have wedding rings
20 years later, and i don’t regret not getting a diamond

I don't have a future wife, if this marriage breaks up, I'm not doing it again. The wife didn't go halfsies on the ring I proposed with, but she has upgraded her ring sets a few times on her own dime. The ring I gave her was about a .75 carat in an 18kt gold setting. The one she wears now is in white gold, with a diamond just shy of 2 carats.
