The "A" Ring. What Am I Thinking?!?!
Beo is about to get engaged to "A". If you see Beo, run him over in your car.
So, the "A"ster has finally picked out a ring she likes and wants a more prominent example of commitment. Why is it so much easier for guys to be in a relationship than girls? I'm not going anywhere. I don't cheat on girlfriends. What is the deal with the ring? Is it like showing off your Johnson to another guy going, "Nice, I knew mine was big but thanks for the ego boost."
She says it is also outside social pressure that makes her feel the ring is necessary, but she says she trusts me and that this is just the next natural step. I asked her if we could just be best friends and lovers for the rest of our life and she told me no. Ah, well.
The best part is I lucked out a little bit. She had her choice from anything below two thousand five hundred, otherwise I would have to give my heart on the black market. We went to all the diamond stores you can think of and window shopped and it turns out "A" has great taste.
"Oh, this rings nice isn't it Beo?", "A" said. "Yeah, that's very pretty honey.", I turn to the guy at the counter, "How much is the one she's trying on?". "Oh, that one is going for 6G's.", the guy at the counter said. I reply, "Oh, do you have anything over 8G's, I looking for something nice." The counter guy then began to show me rings in that price range and "A" and I played along with our little private joke. She's cool like that.
So after a month or so of shopping and indecisiveness "A" told me that when she finally figured out which one she wanted she would let me know and did so this weekend. She truthfully wants a cubic zirconia from Ziamond.com. After hours of berating her about it, she told me we didn't need to take on another monthly bill and that she would be perfectly happy with this and that we will just go more extravagant on the wedding bands. Wow, sensibility from a woman that constantly needs to purchase things for everything.
"It still costs a half a grand.", "A" exclaims. Now that's a keeper.

Hey! I finally got that problem figured out. Thanks so much for your help. I added your site to the "Links" part on my blog.
I also want to say thanks for the reassuring words.
As for the ring, good stuff. You've got a keeper, for sure.
You knows this means you're gonna have to put up the big bucks for the wedding, though!
With all sincerity, congratulations to you both. Speak to you soon.

Thanks man. I know the big bucks come later. But maybe I could get her to live with me for long enough that she forgets about the wedding. Maybe a lobotomy for her birthday would come in handy.
Thank you for your belssing thurston my brotha. I added you to my blog list as well and will be checking your site routinley for your sick dog stories.
Great stuff. Being broke myself, my goal is to find a social activist chick who rails about how diamonds are mined through the use of slave labor in Africa, thereby saving me some cash.
Amen V. There are just to many rules in a womans world.
And cubic zirconia's a made out in the white trash fields of trailor homes. Where is thier profit.
Excellent idea, V. Or someone with a general metal allergy (even to expensive, pure metal).
Now Ambrose is a thinkers man. ha ha.
How would you go about acquiring that type of information early in a relationship. Would you say you had some horrible reaction to metal and put red makeup all over your face on the first date. Then if she has dinner with you and say's nothing about a metal allergy.
Skip town like Butch on Zed's chopper?
That really brings me to a post I want to do tonight. You guys will really like it. I have the music to go with it at home so I have to wait until then. A song we all know, but is still a great one, and summerizes the reason why we want to find girls that don't want things that cost too much money.
Because we live in a class that, as long as we have money, they have money. I'll clarify they later tonight.
That ring looks just like the one that my ex wanted. But with the real stone.
Good for you man. Give her a ring, hand cuffs, 50 lb weights. Keep her around if you like her.
Thank you Stro. But your comment is exactly why I'm not sure.
Your Ex wifes ring.I just want to try to make sure when I get married it's for good. I don't want to regret my first time. Not that you do, but it's just a personal thing and "A" knows the deal and she wants to stick around so.
Hopefull I am doing the right thing, my heart says so at least.
