So bf and I have recently started to shop for e-rings. We discussed a price range and I found a beautiful ring the other day but the diamond we were looking at was a bit smaller than I would like. The ring is on the lower side of our price range. As you would expect we are incredibly open about everything and are pretty much making this a team effort. I kind of feel like since this is a long term investment that we are making into a piece of jewelry that if I want something a bit bigger (but still within our price range) I should be able to at least look at the prices. I just want to see the options but if he isn't comfortable with it or they aren't reasonably priced I totally understand. Do you think it is okay to approach the subject with him?
I obviously am looking at the ring as more than an investment but I just want to make sure we are both happy but comfortable at the same time with such a large purchase.
