Alright, so first, my fiance proposed to me almost one year ago to the day. he proposed with an inexpensive ring from kohls, telling me that he had picked out a better, more unique ring that he was saving up for and would get me very soon, but i could wear this one until he got it. great, i had no problem.
until the place holder ring began to turn my finger and hand green and made my skin break out and bleed. that started to happen 7 months after the engagment, and my actual $300 ring had yet to be ordered. i had to stop wearing the ring because it was rubbing off my skin!
so i currently dont have a ring, one year later he STILL has not managed to save up $300 for this ring. meanwhile i have purchased his $250 ring, plus all our decorations, my dress, and other jewlery.
and last night i noticed that this lovely unique ring that i have been promised for 12 months, has a 16 week out order time, which means that if it was ordered RIGHT NOW it would not even be finished until after the wedding.
needless to say, im really upset. is that wrong? my friend keeps telling me to use ANOTHER place holder ring for the ceremony, but who does that? is that really a thing? because who knows when ill actually have a ring if i use yet another placeholder ring for the ceremony...
am i crazy?? thanks for reading
