Why Engagement Rings Are a Scam - Adam Ruins Everything: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5kWu1ifBGU
This video (and this channel) is very one sided. They pretend to be balanced but they are very much not. This is one major problem with social media - that it is possible to make something look "popular" (or that many people agree with your content) when this is really just paid traffic/comments/likes

That channel was always about making funny videos, not documentaries.
But in this case, is true:

That's funny, but just buy a ruby emerald or sapphire engagement ring. As long as it cost a fuck ton of money, she isn't going to refuse to marry you just because her giant rock is blue instead of clear.

So saving it for the next time seems a little sketch... I don't feel like I can give the same ring to another girl... Otherwise I deff would.


All that said.... Its been a month or so... Dropping the price $1000 off.

Why don't you just save it for the next time - possibly?

She must have been a really decent woman considering she didn't snap at the opportunity to take you for all you own and half of all you will ever own in the future. Sorry to hear.

Yep... I guess I had different ideas than she did. It has been a sad 2 weeks. But I'm starting to get over it and I'm really looking forward to the projects I'm working on right now.

Let me say though... I didn't pay $6000 for this ring. It basically cost me my asking price/appraised value.

Sucks to see you selling this. Just a few months ago, I remember you requesting a $6k loan to buy this ring, and how that you finally were able to get it, it's put up on sale :/

In person is possible. I will drive an hour or two to meet. That could get me to virginia or south carolina.

Asking price is approximately what it appraised for. I will accept offers and I will take full payment in bitcoin or litecoin. Realize that insured shipping is not easy or cheap for rings like this and I am including that as well. If we meet FTF I could drop the price a bit for this reason.

I should also say that the relationship ended amicably so there is no curse on this ring or anything. Wink
