Dear Lounge: Sorry to disappoint you. But the ring i finally picked for Rockit
is different from the ones i had shown you guys last week.

we spoke about it at length and realized that the rings i picked were too much like wedding bands and not engagement rings.

Hopefully you guys will like this ring: its titanium with a black diamond.

2. That one DOES look like a wedding band, except for the space at the top.

4. Lovely!
I wouldnt worry about any ring looking "too much like an engagement ring". As long as you like it, thats what matters.

10. Me, too.
It looks like the kind of rings I wear. Really sleek and elegant. I don't wear pronged settings. I really like that ring and wish I had found it first.

:D

11. i can give you a website address. they are pretty cheap as far as jewellery goes.
i wanted her to have titanium since she works with her hands and gold would get scratched too easily

18. Please PM it to me.
Thanks!

Maybe as soon as the swelling goes down on my hand, I can buy a new ring.

9. What an interesting selection! That ring says the wearer is someone special!
I chose an aquamarine for my ring years ago which was a lot easier on my husband to be than a diamond would ever have been. It turned out to be a good precedent; my daughter asked her fiance for a pink Sapphire. He was relieved to be carrying on a family tradition to eschew something more expensive, he's paying off student loans!

Just be careful with the wedding band; if it's not titanium, one band will wear the other away. I ended up having my engagement band and wedding band soldered together because the engagement band was wearing away.

43. thanks hedgehog. i have a lot of diamonds in my family. so getting a regular
engagement ring would not be very special for me either.

17. Ooo! I like that!
I don't know what you picked out before, but I'm sure that I like that one better. Hell, I would wear something like that, and I don't even wear any jewelry (aside from my wedding band, of course).

23. That's a great choice.
I like it quite a bit. I can see her wearing that. It matches her style very well.

Does a ring ever interfere with playing the guitar? For some reason I thought Guitar players avoided wearing rings.

40. It's a very attractive ring.
The black diamond I'm sure stands out much better with a different background (like on a finger). When you get it, post a pic of it on so that rock will stand out!
