I'm trying so hard....
« on: November 24, 2010, 07:28:49 PM »
I'm going to propose to my girlfriend in a week or two when we go out for the day in Winter wonderland (hyde park). I've got quite a bit of money saved up to help pay for a ring (and other things).

And I'm trying so damn hard to not buy another guitar  :x I could afford another PRS too aah :x

what to do....

A guitar is forever. But if you do get married you might want a band so I'll sit on the fence here.

Buy the guitar...

It will look more beautiful as it ages, will give you hours of pleasure & you can be sure that the only other men who play with it will do so only with your permission... The same cannot be said for the average wife.  :?

Maybe I can work my charm on her and get her to buy it for me as a sort of 'engagement present' seeing as I'll be paying out a lot for a ring  PDT_019

I was going to add in.

Is she likely to buy you a guitar? If so go for it.

My GF bought me my Marshall TSL and also bought me my MQ neck so you could gain more by not buying the guitar as you'll also have a fiancee

At least it's a nice choice to have to make.   :D

I'm sure you'll do the right thing.  Whatever that is.

Go to a pawn shop and buy both.

Make sure to remove the old engravings in the ring.  :lol:

I understand that feeling. I proposed (successfully!) to my girlfriend in September. I think you need to clear your mind about guitars from that point on ;-) be happy with what you got. Ring cost a lot and there'll be wedding ones and ... oh yes! ... the wedding. That is not gonna be free either.
Anyway, if she's worth it she is! That's what you got to remember!
Good luck then on the proposal!!!  :D

May be a idiot question, but most of people I saw marrying here on south land had just one pair of rings... Usually milionary here get a ring to propose and a new one to marry...

Don't know really, I will get two. Luckily, my fiancee wants a "nice" ring, i.e. something that is nice and looks nice, not something tacky with a huge price tag which makes it looks like a ring a footballer would give to a model.
