    Because we can’t AFFORD diamonds. Can’t afford houses either . Wearing alternative rings and hoping our parents leave the house to us after they die .

    My stone is a stunning deep red and the band is a black. My favorite colors to wear ❤🖤❤
    I love my beloved
    And there’s no need to spend thousands on an engagement ring. Just spend a few hundred. Expecting a huge expense is so old school and unnecessary

    Who cares what's "in" and "out", or what the trend is. Buy what you want and what is special to the person you're giving it too. Who cares what other people think.

    Another popular trend today is not getting married at all! The ring no one cares about that costs you a fortune is just the begining of the aggravation for married couples.

    Yeah diamonds are boring, I'ma a 33 year old millennial. My wife got a Sapphire. And I wanted stainless steel. On our 15 year wedding anniversary (in 2 years) we are getting tattooed rings.

      Yeah my engagement ring is a moissanite. I wanted sparkle and a clear stone but I don't support the diamond industry. Have had plenty of semi judgemental attitudes to it but I am in my 30s and I truly don't care.

    Bro who cares about a ring I'd make my own and give it to the one that I really love even though I know I'm cheaping out or whatever I wanna give her the experience first then I'll get her a ring!

    So? You so-called news groups give those groups WAY too much attention and credit.

      Gen-Z and Millennials are likely to rule the world when you and me are long dead - assuming we don't blow up the planet first. Knowing their preferences gives us a hint of a future we won't see. Like time-travel.
      I remember having read about an Egyptian papyrus which text was a complaint about the crazy youth of those times.
      Yep. The more things change, the more they remain the same. Old people complaining about young people. A classic.
