But the huge engagement ring is gone. In all honestly, it's my second engagement ring; my first one that Evan and I picked out together was lost by the big box jewelers. This one was purchased from a local diamond broker, and we didn't pick it out together; my mom and aunt came with me to pick it out and honestly I just picked out the biggest one because I was influenced by their "keeping up with the Jones'" style. Lately the ring had been making me feel uncomfortable (the size of the diamond) and just didn't feel like my style and fit my values anymore. Besides that, the cash from selling the diamond back to the broker will pay for the rest of my pre-reqs for nursing school out of pocket. I'd much rather invest my money in my education at this time
Also, we picked out a pair of silicon wedding rings and have been wearing them for a little over a month. These new rings won't be a big deal if they're lost, they fit our active lifestyle, and we picked them out together

1. love the explanation
2. Similar Stripe heehee as in our rings were far from keeping up with anyone but US as we both were and still not showy or into the $$$ amount of ANYTHING regardless of the FACT that we do enjoy some fun things we've been blessed with
3. The rings we had chosen were unique ( which is why I miss mine so much ) & yeah we chose them for the art factor 70's # BBQ
mine had the smallest diamond you'd ever seen and I only had it there cuz it was already there. Lapis was the main stone ( checkie C-6's when your here ) 4. I am proud of your decision for school vs $$ as you will be RICHER for it & forEVER
