My first Valentine's Day I spent with my fiance (boyfriend at the time), he gave me a ring he made by hand in a jewelry class out of sterling silver. It's nothing special, besides the fact that he made it himself. It's not spectacular looking or anything, but I was always very proud to say that I found someone special enough to make me a ring with his own two hands...
When we were talking about getting engaged, he decided to make me another ring, as an engagement ring. Then we talked it over and how it would be expensive to get the materials and such, since last time he didn't pay for his own materials. Anyway, he asked if it was ok if he used my promise ring as an engagement ring when he proposed.
I have to say, a part of me was hoping that he'd at least buy me a new ring... Am I being selfish and materialistic?
