Morning Pebbles,
Just to check..wat's 61514? I have no idea wat's that...some kind of secret code?
Hey my dear, I understand how you feel. Don't get to stressed up with what your friends are colleagues have said...they are just plain 'childish'. You tell them, what's wrong with asking for a ring of 0.3 carat. What's the big deal about 0.46carat ring. To me, a big ring does not signifies anything. I believe if our FH have such cash, they will do like wise. Actually, the significant part is with such small budget, and our FH still have to plan, crack their brains to think of a sincere, romantic proposal, that is then great! Actually, I only asked for a 0.20carat ring....don't bother about what others gonna say....at the end of the day, it's you that is going to marry your FH and not them. I'm having the same problem as you too, having a younger FH....not that much cash too. But it's their sincerity, humourous, sensitive and sweet nature that attracted us to them rite. We are not attracted to them being rich, able to buy us expensive gifts etc. Just tell yourself, your friends are just plain jealous of you having such a understanding and wonderful FH.Hahaha! My colleagues are also the same....always comparing this and that....can't stand them! I always tell myself just listen from one ear and out the other.
Don't let this things affect you and your FH stable relationship...he will be very hurt if you compared it & you guys will end up quarrelling.
Stay focus, don't let all these nasty comments affect you...tell yourself, we are much more fortunate that those who are still looking for their Mr Right! Sorry huh...if I have said too much. I got to go now...it's 8.34am now....
No matter what..you stil have us...brides 2004 behind you!!!!
