  If not, send her my way, and my small diamond will leave some nice little scratches on her ugly face when I slap her silly for being so shallow and inconsiderate.

awww rikke....we should talk more i think i just fell in love with you!



We'd get along swimmingly my dear!  I can drink like a fish and swear like a sailor!

Oh, and I'm a pretty cool chick too. 

*gasp*  You ARE just like Mags!!

oh don't get me wrong - i'm insanely jealous of the big rocks! but i would never have not married my man because my ring was too small!

and you know what - i'm not even wearing the ***ing thing today! i'm wearing my completely plain white gold wedding band and i love it!

bling does not a marriage make! BUT the quest for bling will a marriage wreck

i'm surprisingly wise when i'm sober

i'm a ***, but i'm not THAT big a ***!

Hahaha!  Oh Mags, I heart you!  You're awesome

I haven't finished reading the thread yet, but from what I've read so far, it sounds like your friend has some maturing to do, and that she's really insecure.  People who act like that are usually overcompensating, in my experience anyway.

But it does sound like her role in your life is probably done.  People walk in and out of our lives all the time, and sometimes it hurts, but it needn't be devastating.  Life goes on.  It sounds to me like she's a bit of a toxin to you right now, and it probably wouldn't be the worst thing if you cut her lose.  JMO!

Just jumping into this post now, so this may have already been said, but the quality of the diamond is MUCH more important than the quantity.  I have a three-stone ring with others around the side and that is the perfect ring for me.  I couldn't believe it at the store when those big solitaires were more expensive than mine (I was like sweet, I got something better for less!)  (not bashing solitaires either, I just don't prefer them).  And since when does size matter anyway?

since the OP's UNENGAGED biitchy friend decided to open her big trap - apparently if your man spends less the $5000 on your ring he doesn't love you.

did you notice she's UNENGAGED?

I have one question to ask - Is she a friend from a long time ago or was she a friend a long time ago? 

I can also approach it from her angle.  I suspect I might have been there.  When all of your friends are moving at a particular pace and are at a prticular place in life it can be difficult to not be there with them.  She's probaly trying so hard to be part of what she sees as "the" place to be - that she doesn't realize that she's hurting your feelings.

5 of FH's and I's friends married in the same year.  FH and I had been together 5 years at that point. I wanted that to be us so bad I would have thrown mama off the train to get there. I probaly wasn't to nice to be around then. 4 Years later I'm OK with it, engaged and getting married on September 27, 2008 with a ring I love!
