I wanted something different... with detail in the band. I tired on a million rings and HATED them all.  so after a few weeks of that... FH said that i had to pick it out...  so eventually.. .we found it together. and he went back at a later date and bought it!!

None of the above.

My original e-ring is an heirloom which has been handed down over generations. It is family tradition for him to use that ring to propose.

That being said, when picking out w-rings, I told FH I wanted sapphires, which would not go with my e-ring. I told him I didn't plan on wearing the e-ring on my left hand anymore anyways. I would wear it on my right hand when we go out, but would keep it in it's box most of the time in order to preserve it to hand down to our son.

Well, FH was adamant about me wearing both an e-ring and w-ring together, so I designed both my new e-ring, and w-ring. So, technically once my new rings are made, I will have two e-rings, and one w-ring.

My FH picked out the ring with the help of one of my friends that knew what I wanted. She printed him off a picture from the Tiffany website, and he went to the jewelers and got it replicated.

We picked it out together and he paid for it...that is not an option

Well we dont really fit into any of the options...last april we went ring "shopping" and found one that i liked, but he didnt want to buy it with me around and i was going back to BC the next day, and he was going to sea(naval officer) for 6 wks so he was planning on buying it when he got back and I assume he was going to give it to me the next time we saw eachother when i moved east that summer.....

Well may 24 weekend I discovered I was expecting...so in july when i moved and saw him again we decided that we would hold off on the purchase, as we had more important things to do with the $$..he bought me (and surprised me) a pretty sapphire ring with small channel cut diamonds for a late bday gift and I wear it on my ring finger (I was insecure at first about being unwed and preggers) and now Ive gotten so used to it that I told him I dont need the big diamond, we have a beautiful daughter and a new home so there is more improtant things for our money...plus I will just get an extra sparkly wedding ring

I told him i like princess cut diamonds, and can only wear white gold. I gave him a sketch of what I really liked and he had it made but where I had told him to take the design and have it made into a solitaire setting, he surprised me with having the ring made as I originally designed it.

FH picked it.  I love my ring.  It is a heart diamond.  I had mentioned how much I loved them YEARS before he proposed.  I saw one in a magazine once and mentioned how great I thought they were and how I liked them because they were so girly. 

Like 3 years later and FH actually remembered that comment.    Though, it was like 2 sizes too big, haha!  We had to have it sized.  He was just so afraid it wouldn't go on my finger the night he proposed, so he sorta over-did it.
