		<description>hey im with you on the diamonds especially after i saw blood diamond!! so anyways my hubby got me my ring for 3k (new ring to replace the other one i had which was smaller) for our 3nd anniversary im 21 and he's 25 and it was a white gold band with instead of a solitaire it was a heart shaped ruby and the band matches it exacly. basically he saw the ring at a jewlery store and asked it he can have it customized by taking the diamonds out and replace them with ruby's 
because my favorite color is red.

the solitaire looks something like this</description>

		<description>That's rigth I'm with you diamond worth noting. I know is hard  to find something that both of you may like. I think you both should go together because it Will be  a great moment that you will never forget. I know beside our recommendation you have something in mind. What is the price rigth is not  my recommendation, is what you have in your heart and his heart. I recall  my husband and I going together to by our ring, That moment is still in my mind. I 'm married for 25 years and 
the ring is not the important thing and neither the surprise of that moment , is what is inside of both. Take the time for that moment. There are wedding rings of thousand of dollar and that's it, and there are the most simple ring that say a lot , tha't why you should go together even if he already bought yours.
I wish you the best when that special thing happend.

Take care</description>

		<description>I agree on the diamonds. I refuse to own any either, my reasoning is ppl are dying over natural resources that we glamify(spelling?) To answer your quest, I don't think price matters when it comes relationships. We allow the price of objects to determine how one fells about us and its morally wrong. When your sweety sees the ring that he imagines fits and compliments the one he loves the most, thats the ring he will go for if its a must have. Price on the other hand can stop the purchase. If your have the funds then look for a ring that you feel the most confident about. My mom always told me that its not the price, or amount when giving. No matter what the price once its purchased with confidence and love he will treasure it becuse he will feel what you felt when you picked it.</description>

		<description>If you don't want a ring with a diamond, the price is going to be much cheaper than if you were to have a traditional engagement ring with a diamond.  I don't think there's any "appropriate" price for any age.  It all depends on how much money you make, what your expenses are like, what kind of ring you want (and what materials it's made from), and what your priorities are.  You can totally find a simple, good-quality gold (or white gold) ring for $200.  If you want something with a fancy, intricate design, it might cost more than that.  If you have the money, I'd encourage you to look into getting rings custom-designed, seeing as you're not going to be spending a huge chunk of change on a diamond.

To the people who say that you "should" spend 2 months' salary, or one paycheck, or 1/3 of your salary, etc., all that is B.S.  That "guideline" was made up by the diamond industry (DeBeers, I believe) to inflate the price of diamonds and make them seem more valuable than they really are.  Spend only what you have the money for, and don't feel like you have any obligation to spend a certain amount.</description>

		<description>The three paycheck rule is considered the norm, but wasn't that made up by advertisers anyway? I'd say decide what stone you like, your birthstone or a stone you just find pretty, and shop for one in a cut you find attractive. Mine only cost $800 at a consignment store, and I treasure it beyond price. You sound like a strong-minded individual, and you can wear whatever you like. More power to you!</description>

		<description>I think it is awesome that you don't want diamonds!  

Maybe you could pick some colored stones that are significant, maybe the month you met or started dating or a birthstone for one or both of you?  Since you don't want diamonds you are saving yourself a ton (racketeering anyone?)


They have a wonderful selection of colored rings.  You could get away with spending about 100 to 300 on a ring that is gorgeous and will last a lifetime.

A ring for him would be much cheaper.  Bands are much cheaper because they have no stones.  Ask him if he wants gold or another metal that will last longer and be light on the hand, such as titanium.  These rings are normally about 100 or slightly more.

Good luck!</description>
