Passion 5th Gear October 26, 2009 Author Share October 26, 2009 Same here, i nv even give my wife diamond ring coz she say its a useless stone, save the money for reno more practical. Save me money and trouble Like bro mention here,your wife till now didnt complain abt friends having it but I don't have kind of attitude?If so,great! I'm only afriad she'll compare in future,cause if I propose to her,she'll be the first among her friends to get hitched,so no complains.But when her friends got hitch too,comparison is unavoidable. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pentium 1st Gear October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 Shy I don't think so.Unsporting I don't think so too.She's ok with stuff but proposal in front of ppl,I don't know she can take it not.I'm thinking of holding her hand and ask the question.If she pai say wanna walk away,at least I still hold on to her. Buy a Kork Ring, she will sure like it. Dont need to worry about comparison also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EverestLeasing Neutral Newbie October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 Hi Bro I do agree that gals like to compare. So I think a nice and elegant ring is unavoidable. Meanwhile, for the place and idea, just wondering do both of you have place that you all always go? Or place where you guys first meet or etc? I think it may be simple,. but afterall to me, it is kinda of romantic. The place where you all starts and end your courtship. Other than place, I guess you also need to brainstorm for a sweet and nice speech to bring out the proposal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm..Place we went during our first date is clarke quay.Had our first dinner at Glass House Fish and Co.Place we always go?Hm..Either her place or my place. Actually we didn't always go somewhere.I think speech shouldn't be a problem.she know I don't like to sweet talk,and she keep complaining she quite sometime didnt hear me saying "I Love You".

Yattokame 4th Gear October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 (edited) I always sing this song to my wife when she has a bad day at work "I wanna grow old with you" from the wedding singer I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad Carry you around when your arthritis is bad All I wanna do is grow old with you I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches Build you a fire if the furnace breaks Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you I'll miss you Kiss you Give you my coat when you are cold Need you Feed you Even let ya hold the remote control So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink Put you to bed if you've had too much to drink I could be the man who grows old with you I wanna grow old with you ----------------------------------------------------------- whats so beautiful about this song? It says "I love you" without actually saying it. hope that helps Edited October 26, 2009 by Yattokame Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EverestLeasing Neutral Newbie October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 Ok. By the way, you are confirm gg to oversea for proposal? Anyway, Jia You, Dude! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryn Turbocharged October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 That's like near 5k or so.Is that a norm?Cause my girl quite money sense,if she know spend so much,she'll say she rather I spend that money and bring her to holiday. Is up to your own preference, but if you google "how much should I spend on engagement ring" the advice you get is 2-3 month salary. For my wife, I spend only less than half month, I super cheapo man - but we wanted the money for other things, so far she not complain too much. But then if she so money mind as to say you not spend enough also not nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still a diamond ring - and since then I have also "upgraded" - but I also lucky she is very understanding. Just remember that as with all things in life, words and big dramatic demonstrations of love count for little. It is the day to day caring, support and respect that counts. You don't give this then buy a 2 carat Cartier Diamond also doesn't matter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passion 5th Gear October 26, 2009 Author Share October 26, 2009 Hey bro,your words really enlighten me.I'm afraid the ring I want to get for her wasn't big enough.And true love is by action,no words and gift can overwrite all this part and parcel. Really a great boost of confidence! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidklt Supercharged October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 Just do what most Singaporeans do. Bring her to a coffee shop or hawker center and ask her if she wanna apply for a HDB flat together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Add001 Neutral Newbie October 26, 2009 Share October 26, 2009 Bro, here r my own answers to ur questions: 1. Proposal ring is proposal ring - not wedding rings. 2. Have to get another set of wedding rings for ROM date. (Tis the norm lah unless save $ heheehe.) 3. Hong Kong SAR is indeed a nice place for proposal. Here's a helpful link.... http://www.hong-kong-hotels.ws/attractions/index.htm 4. Thanks for reading. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
