She was quite clear, Vince. My wife has, thus far, displayed no tendancy to say one thing and want another. And I've known her for a long time.

I would never buy diamonds due to the violent diomand business in africa. You have little kids getting their arms chopped off.
That's what I would tell my girlfriend if I ever have one. I'm not sure how well that would go over. I'll buy her a fake diamond for an engagement ring..
And if she complains, I'll just say she doesn't care about little boys getting their arms chopped off.. I have this all planned out you see. Now all I need is a fiance.

Even I sucked it up and bought a ring w/diamond (and flanking sapphires as well).

they just seem so boring and cliche. I'd be tempted to buy a different kind of stone.
What's so great about a diamond? They are white. It's not like they are a pretty color. I'd be more tempted to buy an emerald. They look better.Comment

Yes, they are cliche. And rather boring. And the price is artificially inflated.
But most women appear to be hooked. The diamond industry managed to convince nearly everyone that an engagement ring = diamonds. Variety means including other precious stones. Brilliant of them, the bastards.
Not every woman wants the diamond... but I think it's safe to say that the vast majority do.

You poor guy Arrian.
I hope it was no where near the price of the engagement ring...
