Women believe an engagement ring should cost minimum three months of your salary

[Masculine_ManParticipant 2735]

First off I try to learn from simps like Steve Harvey because women shameless admit all their faults without realizing how asinine it sounds. So this lady, who is not youthful, beautiful, and easily approaching the wall at mach speeds. She should be thankful a sucker is willing to marry her. Apparently it is not good enough. Proof women do not think about long term future. Three months salary could be a down payment on a house, or a wise investment in publicly traded shares. Check out the link for yourselves.

If it costs you your peace of mind, then it is too expensive.

Who gives a s~~~ “what women believe”.

2-3 months of after tax savings represents at least 1 year of a working man’s life – regardless of income level – because if you’re saving 10% at the end of the year, you’re doing better than 95% of Americans.

12-15 months of working man’s life just to ask for permission to love her until death?

Are they out of their f~~~ing minds?

Yes and here’s why. 15 months is equal to more than 5000 hours of labor. This includes work travel time and everything to do your job. But making a sammich takes 5 f~~~ing minutes, so in order to be even with the ring alone, she would have to make 1 sammich – every f~~~ing day – for 164 years.

…. and KNEEL DOWN when she brings it to you.

Would that be acceptable bitches? Don’t all answer at once.

A “diamond” ring up front? NO no no. A diamond is for the DIAMOND ANNIVERSARY.
After 60 years of marriage and only if she was a loving wife.
THEN you can get her a “diamond”.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

He knows who he needs as a day time TV host, so he’s actually being smart in the way he tells her that the expectation is unrealistic.

The first place I ever heard the two months salary thing, it was in a jewelry store’s commercial. I can understand them setting the price for any given ring but the last thing I’m going to do is let the DeBeers tell me how much of my money and effort should be going toward throwing my life away.

For the record Miss Manners says women should get to keep the ring but a Texas court ruled last year on three different broken off engagements that the guys got the rings back totalling 100K because they were given in anticipation of closing the deal with a marriage.

From Texas Monthly, Rules of Engagement Rings.

“But not because he was feeling generous. Those expensive trinkets were simple gifts, whereas, under Texas common law, an engagement ring is what as known as a “conditional gift.” True ownership does not accrue to the recipient until the condition—marriage—is met. Should the rice never fly, ownership of the ring goes to whoever was not at fault in the breakup.

So if you gave the ring and then call off the wedding, you have to have a justifying reason for doing so if you expect to get the ring back. Likewise, if you got the ring and dumped its giver, you have to have a strong reason for doing so if you expect to keep the ring. In either case, documented cheating would probably suffice.

That’s the way it is in Texas, anyway, and it could be the wisest approach. In other states, the ring would revert to the man even if he got caught having an affair with his fiancee’s best friend, while in a smaller number of states, the woman would get to keep it even if she said “Thanks, see ya, bye” the second she opened the box.

I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.

It should be 2-3 months of her salary and she should pay for it.

Absolutely. Women should be kneeling down and BEGGING for all the s~~~ they expect.
Not exaggerating.

Even when you asked them WHY should you have a ring? What are you offering to do for it? They just stand there with a totally blank expression on their faces. It’s remarkable. This whole studio audience is very revealing. Even after he says “that’s a lot of money!” they are all shocked like “I don’t care! SO??? LOL!!!”.

Good riddance bitches. And they talk about “Miss Manners”?

She’s not even hott! She’s a tired over-the-hill expired post-wall dried up sandy vagina and wants a $25K ring? Even if she was Alexandra Ambrosia and I MIGHT let her blow me, and the only jewelry she’ll be getting is a pearl necklace of Keymaster’s nut nectar.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

This is exactly why I checked out. No sense of monetary conservative values. In the 20th century a wedding ring was a simple gold band. I don’t know when it morphed to this animal. One thing I know, I will not be participating

[uchibenkeiParticipant 7965]

The joke is they all believe it’s “because I’m worth it”. If that reason doesn’t stink of entitlement, nothing does. They want someone to love them enough to do that for them but don’t do anything to deserve to be loved that way. And if you truly loved a man, the ring he gets wouldn’t matter at all. But to these shallow c~~~s, it does matter. Because love has nothing to do with it. They just want to show their friends and make them jealous. “Look how much my man loves me” “Look how much I control this simp”

The one time I got engaged (and I am by no means recommending it or saying it was a good idea even at the time) I purchased a half carrot diamond and white gold engagement and wedding ring set at a second hand shop for a total of $2500 which amounted to about a week’s pre-tax salary.

One week versus three months is a 92% discount. Unfortunately for her, she stil wasn’t worth it.

[SpacemonkeyParticipant 1481]

And what does the guy get for his 3 months salary? He gets to take a bite of her tuna sandwich, that’s what.

No thanks, love. Plenty more tuna sandwiches in the deli.

Did some looking around and they maxed out at 17k. It makes me ask the question how can a woman claim she loves a man. All while she sends him to an early grave to make him buy her worthless trinkets, mined by African children to fund multigenerational mindless violence and bloodshed.

A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

I’ve never bought an engagement ring ever and i’m proud of not throwing my money down the drain on such useless crap.

Who the f~~~ still buys into Marriage these days anyway?

Expensive engagement ring, even more expensive wedding. S~~~ty legal contract, hen pecking, slavery to the plantation, dead bedroom, and then divorce rape. the list goes on and on.

[Spank The MisandristsParticipant 2308]

Say you make 40k a year and spend 3 month salary buying a useless ring for a hoe, that’s 10k. And let’s assume you hit that pussy on a daily basis no matter she’s on her period or not, that’s 90 times roughly (and you know she likes it rough). That’s 111 £/$ per time, on adultwork you could find hot girls offering special services for 100 £/$ per hit and you can have a different girl each time, so you do the math.

Not to mention the fact that women nowadays not only want a wedding ring, but instead they want a promise ring, an engagement ring and finally if she’s still not able to find a better guy than you at that point a wedding ring. The only f~~~ing ring I will ever buy for a woman is a vaginal ring, so she won’t get knocked up.

And btw, that’s only if you don’t pay for anything else. You boyz all know what follows after the ring, wedding, and guess what they want you to spend, not 3 month salary, no no no, all your money, because it’s her once in a life time moment, even though she’s been married 250 times.

The rings aren’t even worth the price. Diamonds are worthless. Ever try to sell one.

To say it simple: Industrial diamonds get some jobs done, while diamond ring only makes your money go away. But the very best expensive crystal is titanium doped sapphire, polished to a few nanometers precision, that makes scientific lasers really working and the world a better place 🙂

Was never a fan of Steve Harvey but I have to give him some credit for standing up to a crowd of greedy women.
Actually spending any money on an expensive diamond ring when one can get an equally attractive cubit zirconia one (which only a diamond dealer with an eyepiece can detect) for a fraction of the price is for suckers. I guess the point of making the guy go into hock for an expensive one is to get some satisfaction out of how much the women can make the guy suffer to prove his love. I once told an ex girlfriend that her engagement ring would come from a Crackerjack box.
I’ve seen women go around flashing their expensive engagement rings at work to impress their female co-workers but nobody was interested in anything about the guy that came with the ring.
Just like how women are more totally absorbed with the wedding than with the marriage. No wonder most marriages end in divorce.

[bobphiloParticipant 1772]

Like Jackie Gleason said, there are 3 rings of marriage. The engagement ring, the wedding ring and then the suffering.

[Frank V.Participant 2445]

I am spending $0 on a ring. No need to bother, I’ll dumper her in a few months or she will move along.

Three months salary?

Then she’d better have one huge goddamn dowry.

[RusskyParticipant 13503]

what? three month old celery? that’s weird, but doable

[OracleSummonParticipant 179]

Buying a woman a McDonald’s Meal is too expensive, why in the world would you buy a ring worth half of your salary let alone a ring?

Apparently the stores that sell expensive rings need someone to buy them and are pushing this mentality to increase their profits.
