    I also have plenty of friends who were totally envious of the way I got proposed to and have seen beyond the ring itself.

    Ooohh ella, how did he propose? x

    I thought Kavanne and floss were just kidding, and didn't take their remarks seriously at all. I think though, that a thread like this does verge on a game of one upmanship, and although I am enjoying looking at all your beautiful rings, I do feel as if there's a bit of childish, "look what I've got" tone to it, which makes me a bit uncomfortable.

    I was actually being complimentary - not everyone is blessed with an OH who has good taste in jewellery and the guts to choose their future wife's engagement ring by themselves.

    I know that when OH bought mine (and he had an idea what I liked but still chose my ring himself) he was extremely nervous, despite being fussed over by 3 women young enough to be his daughters and being plied with champagne as he handed over his credit card!
