Put your self in this situation, you've been with the same guy for a few years and everything is good and all for now. Than he proposes with a $$$$$$ ring.
I mean how can you say "no" (This does not apply to all)??? I'm pretty sure there is a scientific study somewhere proving that when a girl come in contact with shiny blingy object that has a $$$$$$ price tag if not more, some kind of hormones will release, and in turn they will say "yes, Yes, YES" (Note: Not all girls). And during this moment our mind goes into overdrive, following with the tears of joy.
So many of us girls loves these love stories because they are so romantic and dreamy, but have you thought about the future??? Sure in that instance everything is sweet and dandy, but why is the divorce rate as high as 50% (thats 1 in 2).
When I hear these stories or watch similar scenarios in movies, I think is really "Unfair". Males may not even know they are doing this, but when you hit a girl with "I wanna make you Mrs ~~~" then present a jaw dropping carbonated rock. How is the girl going to say "no". You are trapping us girls into a black hole where your the "light".
Now I know every relationship is different and I may be a little sinical here.
But I'm pretty sure there are some girls out there that agree with me and I just dont think a life time decision could be made in a split of a second with a bling. And I know some of you will say the guy will give you time to decide. However the guy has added a new element into the life time decision and thats the breath taking engagement ring.
I believe when your in the relationship and you have came to the point of deciding "Happily ever after", it should be a dual decisions. This decision should come mutually and the decision should be made after careful consideration and understanding from one and another. When the decision is made, then a ring can be purchased mutually to seal the commitment. This way both parties is able to make a more accurate decision and less sexist.
