    I take the ring back to the jeweler tomorrow.

    What's a guy to do?


    I'm sorry to hear that, I had the same problem, but she waited till it was almost too late...
    You're better off knowing now than after the fact. but still don't get too down about it, give her time and see what happens.
    Given a little space, she might come around, you ust have to let her adjust and come to terms with her fears.

    Oh man, thats a roller coaster. Keep in mind women keep track of your reactions to this kind of adversity. Stay strong and cool man! We've got you if you need to vent! Just let her know you'll love her for who she is, ring or no ring, and hang tough.

    That pretty much sums it all up. Don't rush back to the jeweler with it, give it a little while. Of course you don't want to wait indefinitely, but at least show her that you're willing to wait if necessary. I'm sure she's special so you don't want to just drop it. Take heart, and feel free to vent here. The women make us all crazy

    So sorry to hear that, brother. Like the other's have said - just wait until things settle down a bit. You have to remember that while you had weeks of mulling this over in your head before you asked her, she had to make a decision on the spot...she may yet come around...just try not to say or do anything in the heat of the moment that could ruin the future. It hurts like hell now, but better to be on the side of caution.

    If you need to vent, we're here for ya buddy.

    Keep your chin up.
