Me and my partner had a proper discussion

He asked what I’d choose. Getting a ring or moving out sooner and getting a place together. He chose getting a place together. And I agree with him, I guess he’s the more sensible one, I hate to admit it. I guess living with him first is my main priority, the rest will fall into place. I’m just being materialistic over a stupid ring. It will happen for me when the time is right for both of us.

You can get silver bands on etsy. Like 50 dollars each Silver is beautiful and the rings still represent your commitment and can be a place holder for later on of a diamond ring.

He can afford a ring to be fair, but there is also other factors that play into it. I think he is right, we need to live together first before we take that step.

Don’t you feel like you are compromising what you want though?

You can get engaged without a ring.

He also finds it odd that we get engaged or married before we move in together but from the culture influence I’ve grown up with women move out after marriage. He’s from a Catholic family though so things might be different for him.

That’s true … :slightly_smiling_face:

Oh i understand now ish. Its about moving in before the ring thing in general. Also dont feel bad. Ring is a strong symbol of togetherness.
