RE: Girls: If you could have any Engagement Ring you wanted..

The ones already posted are beautiful. 
Personally, I have a preference for the classics with a twist, so when I designed my "dream" engagement ring, it was this one:

Designed and built by Steven Krechmer, it is a patented reverse spring that holds the stone in place, allowing the stone to "float" without prongs in the setting. The gold alloy is also patented for strength. The diamond had to be tested to ensure it was of sufficient quality to withstand the pressure. I still have it and I still wear it. The only downside? Can't be resized, so don't gain weight! (Disclaimer: This is not my ring, but it looks almost exactly like it.)

lol Tattoo "Mrs.Trich" on your arm!
EDITED because the two sentences didn't go together at all.
Personally I don't think it's a good idea gettin your partners name or symbol tattood on you unless they're dead. But that's just me
My mom wanted a tattoo of a cross made out of roses and thorns, with the words "jesus saves" underneath.
Like, why?
I'm not much of a tattoo person, but I am less of a jewelry person meaning I don't like wearing rings or stuff like that. I figured if I get a tat of a wedding ring then I don't have to fuss with such stuff, and still keep the women at bay.

That looks like the stone would just fall out.. I get it, patent, pressure alloy gold.. It just looks scary.

My wife asked me to marry her.
Apparently I still had to buy her a ring.

Well, that would depend on whether you guys were already married or not, wouldn't it?
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

She basically asked me to marry her then went shopping.

right but if you were already married, you don't owe her that damn ring!

Where the rock meets the band, is there a notch in the metal, or is it indented into the band and held there by reverse spring?
