Good morning JustUs,
My boyfriend and I will be moving in together within the next month or so and he wants to get married as soon as I move in. We are both in agreement and excited about the change. My problem is he doesn't have money for an engagement ring right now. We want to do this marriage right and please God but as a woman, I still desire to have a ring and he kneel down and ask. Of course my answer is yes but is that too much? Silly? Well he asked me today if I would be willing to accept an engagement ring that was once meant for an old ex. She had picked it out while they were at the mall (she didn't know he went back and got it) and he planned on proposing with it. But they broke up before he could. He says after we marry, we could have a small reception at the house to celebrate. What do you think? Isn't the wedding suppose to be one of the most memorable moments in our lives? I'm feeling torn between mixed feelings. I want to talk to my fiance about it but I don't want to hurt his feelings. What do you think a man would feel if I expressed this? A woman? Anyone!
