I am starting this because I am feeling fiesty..
I flame this poster's Husband. I might be alone in this but the idea that you HAVE to buy him a gift to make up for the ring he bought you is crazy to me:

Re: Engagement Gift for Fiance?:
[QUOTE]my husband and i talked before we even got engaged because he said
he didnt think it was fair that he had to go drop thousands of dollars on a ring when the woman does not have to buy the guy anything. i know he was just complaining, but it got us both thinking and talking and we decided that when he proposed, i would buy him a gift of around the same value as an engagement present. i bought him a new mountain bike. i am aware that this is not normal, but i enjoyed giving it to him none the less.
