I would definitely get a ring custom made (like for an engagement ring). It's just not the same if somebody else has the same thing.

A girl I know got a really nice ring for her bday, it was just a plain silver band with a stone in the middle, but the stone wasn't wider than the ring and it was embedded in the metal, so it didn't change the profile of the ring. If you get what I mean.
It was subtle, but good.

Wow. How unbelievably fucking lame you are. The only way he could make this better is to find out what ring you wanted and then buy you a cheap plastic piece of shit and put it in a nice ring box and say "I changed my mind at the last minute, this one is much sparklier"". The look on your face would be great.

my girlfriends know right from the start that they will never receive a single piece of jewelry from me. a girl who really cares about her boyfriend would say "don't waste your money on something so pointless and frivolous as jewelry, buy me something that's actually worth your money."

so quit pretending that you aren't materialistic. it's not your fault though, you're just a typical female.

PROBABLY something that represents something that you know she likes that you guys have shared together? But not like super flashy, I know chicks dig rocks, but I woul dkeep them to a minimum, make it something that matches her personality

sometimes I sit down and look at engagment rings but that's just wishful thinking. I don't think a guy should get the girl a ring before an engagment ring but that's just me personally... but as far as what I would want it would be a platinum ring with sidestones (not a solitaire) in which the center stone didn't stick up a lot above the reset of the ring (i want the center stone protected) and a message engraved on the inside of the band. probably a round or princess cut center diamond. I love heart cuts but I've yet to find a mounting that really makes them look as amazing as they do when they are loose... but like I said.. wishful thinking. I don't think this will happen very soon but just hope my b/f reads this.... haha..

if i was taking your girlfriend out she'd only get one item off the dollar menu.

and just because i don't buy jewelry doesn't mean i'm a cheap ass (as i assume that's what you were implying with your incredibly witty remark), i just don't spend my money on sparkily things that serve no purpose other than reminding a girl that she's materialistic

My sister's boyfriend bought her a diamond ring for her birthday, and didn't realise it was actually an engagement ring.

I TOLD him to take me with him.

so please enlighten me on what things "serve a purpose" in life? because getting down to it, nothing serves any purpose but to make someone else happy, like a ring. electronics serve no purpose, they are a want.

now a new heart, sure that serves a purpose.

there's no reason to get all defensive dude. you can buy your girlfriend all the meaningless hunks of metal and rock that you want. i was just saying that i won't, because i prefer girls who don't need constant reminders of their own materialism. not my type, that's all.

and i bought my last girlfriend a pair of skis for christmas.....but i guess those are meaningless gifts with absolutely no functionality too aren't they?

Are you telling me that because I love someone I will waste 2000 on some compacted carbon atoms? You can get her a damn pencil with more carbon in it! And gold? Are you not supporting the use of poisionous acids in gold mining? Buy her some skis. That is romantic.

For christmas a few years ago I bought my girlfriend a 3 silver ring set. In otherwords, the could each be worn individually but they were meant to be worn together on one finger. They were plain, polished silver with tiny greek engravings on them. She loved them. I didn't want to get her the typical diamond/gold rings, so those worked out perfectly.

I would travel deep into Mordor and cut the One Ring from Sauron's finger. And if she didn't like it I would embark on a scary journey with Dwarves, Elves, Hobbits, Men, and a Wizard. I would travel to the tip top of Mount. Doom, and cast the ring into the firey chasms from whence it came.

the only reason you should buy a ring for a girl is if you're getting married
