I think we have some fibbers on this thread who don't want to look materialistic and shallow so they say "Oh, I could never have 1 carat, my hands are so delicate...."
I'm teasing you all, but in a nice way, so no offense to anyone!
But come on, who doesn't want a nice rock on her hand?!? I have always told my boyfriend all I need is a nice 2 carat diamond solitare in a platinum setting!
I doubt I would actually get that much, but I expect at least a carat. I know how much money my boyfriend makes, I know his financial obligations, and I know he can afford that. So, I am shallow because I want it? I don't think so. However, if I was dating a starving artist or a college student, of course I would not expect something that big! But if he can afford a decent size, that's what I want.
Hey, Hootie - jewlery question. Would a specific diamond cost the same in Nebraska as it would in NYC, for the most part. I mean, if all things are equal (the C's)? Because I was thinking that I see plenty of carat plus rings here and I have a theory about it, but need your info. to see if I'm right.
Edited to add: I tell my boyfriend I want the 2 carat, but it's not a demand! He knows it's not a demand!
