Dilemma/ Two loves tearing me apart

Postby Steve M » Sun Aug 21, 2011 1:17 pm

I wanted to get a nice new sim PC and the girlfriend has lost the diamond out of her engagement ring and wants me to buy her a new ring. EVERY time I mention new PC the ring thing pops up. This might be a 'Dear Abby' moment! What would you do is the question here.

Did she crash the new Bmw, drop the Macbook, Break the vase and crack the '40' hd tv? >:(. Mark we need you here :-/ ;D.
I guess you should:
On your next date, publicly dedicate this song to her  ;D
Buy her a new diamond ring and  use super-glue to stick it onto her finger :P
Find a new girlfriend
Or you could go into your nearest volcano and get her some raw diamond. Like sushi :o

I am a little confused here.  If you bought her the ring she is your fiance, not just your girlfriend.  My point being, if you really plan to spend the rest of your life with her you better get that ring replaced or you will never hear the end of it!  Get the pc on a later date and you won't regret it.

Based on my history with women, I voted to get the pc. ::)

If you had to ask that question, you probably need to reconsider the engagement.

best,

Based on my experience with marriage, I said get the new PC.  You will be happier.  You already invested in her, and she lost it.  Time to take care of number 1  ;)





(in all honesty though, follow your heart man, if you think she rates another big diamond investment, then go for it, marriage is forever.  But for your sake, insure it this time!!)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Two words, IN-SURANCE.  Ok that is one word, but you get my point.  I just recently got engaged, and was able to insure her ring for just $50 a year through my insurance company. 

Depending on where you bought it from, you may have something known as a diamond bond, which means the jeweler may replace the diamond at no cost to you.

I would advise you to get a new ring insured to a few thousand $$$$$. So if she loses it you will get richer. :P

Well, it quickly sounded fishy as soon as I read as far as volcano -- I thought you were about to suggest he throw her in as a sacrifice.
