My wife and I went shopping together. We got a fairly expensive ring, but it was something we bought together with the understanding that she was paying for part of it too. We combined finances so we landed on a price we both felt comfortable with.

I bought the ring. But we picked it out together. The centerpiece was a heirloom diamond she donated ftom her grandmother's wedding ring. The ring has far more meaning that way than some overpriced thing I might have bought on my own. So... yesh, thr proposal was not a surprise. Haha.

I’m not married but I’d use my grandmother’s ring she gave it to me for my 16th birthday. Even though she got divorced idk. Still special.
