Quote: An old adage used to say that a man must spend two full months salary on an engagement ring. Hogwash. That is open to too much interpretation. Is that figure before or after taxes?
I think going to pick out a ring together is a good idea, because what she likes may be completely different than what you think she will like. Style and shape are very important. Also, not all woman like gold (or diamonds for that matter), so yeah, with an important purchase like this, you may want to have her involved in some fashion.

Well I'm kinda indifferent on marriage. I'm sure I want to spend the rest of my life with this one, and she wants to spend the rest of her life with me. But the idea of just being engaged sounds appealing to her. I think she'll be more "at ease" if we're engaged because she's had some bad relationships in the past. Just remember to spend like 12 years salary on the ring! That's how it goes right? That's not a formal rule. :/ I forgot what the thing behind that is. I thought it was just two or three months salary, but I could be wrong. Anyway, if I were a guy, I would just take the gal to pick it out. Girls have different tastes. Some gals like a more modern cut, some like something more subdued, and some like something ridiculously ostentatious. It's 3 months lol... I was being silly ^^ I thought that was obvious as 12 years is ridiculous lol...
I would feel weird taking a girl I was going to propose to out ring shopping. Unless... I already did and we were out getting the "real" ring now.

Put a lot of thought into it, ask her friends, etc and find a ring you think she'll like. If she makes a fuss over it being the wrong ring, dump that ***.

He may, he may not ... Take me for example ... I don't wear jewelry, not a single piece, so the chances of my BF knowing what type of ring I would like is pretty slim. I don't like gold and I don't like big flashy diamonds. How would he know that unless I specifically told him?

Edit: everyone is different though I can't argue with that... some people don't need or want rings... some might like to go out and shop together... others surprised... I guess I figure that if you're at the point where you want to get married you'd know the best approach or it wouldn't relaly matter because well you want to spend the rest of your lives together (at that time at least)

I'll put it this way ~
If I was going to ask someone to marry me, I'd rack my brain over which ring to get forever. Hopefully I wouldn't be wrong, but I'd want her to like anything I have her. Thought/effort that counts?

Just a general idea...
I like things that are stackable...
Or simplistic...
(Minus peridox (sp?))
But that's more of a practicality thing because I'm horrible with jewelry.
Things like this...
Look gaudy to me.

I've learned platinum is the best because it like never goes bad ever. But it's also the most expensive. The cheapest platinum ring I saw started at $800. Don't get cubic zirconium either. They'll know. Row, your next post is your 34,000th in case you didn't notice.
Make it epic!

I'd just use one of those plastic rings from a walmart to propose with :3
I'd get a real ring to give to her afterwards, I would just love to see everyones face when I do this lol... or maybe rig it to where the real ring comes out of the machine instead of a plastic ring...

That's why you get 2 rings. One for the "ZOMG LOOK AT THAT." and one for everyday wear.

Say he got you a gold one with a big flashy diamond... would you really care? I would be happy that he got me something, but I would be bothered that he didn't know me well enough to not get me something more my style. He actually knows that I don't like gold and big flashy diamonds, so he wouldn't buy me something like that ... I hope! >.>
Quote: Can get a general idea for what type~ of jewelry a girl is into with previous gifts or just having the forthought to ask long before. Silver, gold, platinum, white gold. Gaudy or low profile.
Simple questions then you just store that stuff in the ol memory bank. /shrug This ^^

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
