Does the cost and size really matter ?

[stillfocused]

To all of my sisters..does the cost of the ring really matter; when your future husband is planning to purchase your engagement ring ? How important is it to the relationship when planning to take that step to have discussed other major purchases ? Like a house, car, and etc ?

the cost of the ring should not matter. Ultimately a woman doesn't see her engagement ring until the man proposes. I wouldn't want some skimpy ring, but the ring my husband chooses for me, I would gladly accept. I would be grateful, because that same ring could make another woman's dream come true.

Secondly, I think the individuals should come into a marriage already established. meaning a purchased home, and car, and credit established. Its so much easier to rent out or sell a home, than trying to figure out how your going to by one.

many individuals come into marriages with baggage, and that includes debt. One thing about me and my husband, we accumulated our debt together, we were young, and wasn't wise in our decisions. So it's a process trying to improve the damage.

First and foremost. Owning a home and a car is apart of the american dream. you don't have to wait until your married to do that.
