I'm not in LOVE with my engagement ring, as it's just not my current style. But it is more than that; it's something my husband picked out, worked hard to save enough $ for (including selling his motorcycle which he loved), and had made for me that makes me love it. I haven't been able to wear it, or my wedding band since the middle of my first pregnancy. I'm working to lose weight and that is one of the first NSVs that I'm looking forward to. Anyway, if I lost it, I'd be devastated. Aww thats a lovely story (the motorcycle part not the not fitting part sorry).

H wanted to propose to me in some cave an hour away from his house. I refused to go to the cave. I fully would not go. I am a proposal ruiner.

I don't get these breadwinner feelings. However, in my home (not saying how we move is correct) we are a team. All monies goes into the pot.
We have faced lay offs and new jobs and relocations and natural disasters and who made more has flip flopped multiple times in our relationship. So maybe that is why I don't have breadwinner feelings.

I also confess that I FEEL (keywords here) - I feel had I posted: "I am just not tied to jewelry, it's not that serious" after someone's confession that some here would have jumped all up and down in my ass. Read the room, tone and timing would all be cited. Anyway, carry on. I feel like something like that happens 4-5 per day minimum. I read and wtf after the fact. HIH MO: Poster: “Hey y’all, super sucky day, my house flooded.” Some people: Dude that sucks, I hope some things can be salvaged, will keep you in my thoughts. Can we help at all? Other people: {{breezy}} Yeah, in my mind it’s just stuff, no big whoop-dee-doo. We flooded a few years ago and it all worked out fine.

I really hate weddings. I mean I would never tell anyone that in person. I don't mean attending, that's fine. I just feel it's a waste of money and just too much for one time event.
I also feel you don't need to have that many people there. Do they all truly support your union? I wouldn't want iffy people there or distant relatives I don't know.

There have been times that he's been job searching. He just started an entire new career path. So for now, I make more $$ by a lot. We have similar goals and work ethics, though, and that's what matters.

My operating system on my personal computer is corrupted aka the computer doesn't work.
I cried about that.
I felt very "why, why, why" about it like a melodramatic movie.

You think you've seen fuck dogs on a dog loss post? I'm so glad I'm single on divorce posts?
We did just fine, bootstrap up on financial disaster posts?
I guess I gloss over this dark corner of HIH.

I also carry amazing insurance that saves us berjillion dollars, so try to remind myself about that regularly. I've cut my business way back this year because of covid and trying to avoid childcare situations. I feel awkward and weird in some ways because I'm basically not contributing much at all. H pointed out the money we saved with no daycare over the summer and now no school tuition for the school year since I'm homeschooling. When put in that perspective I'm contributing about what I used to but I still feel weird about it.

I side eye my nephew and his wife, but it was their party. They did try to get the parent groups to pay for their "share" based on who was invited and got laughed at by all 4 sets of parents. My brother gave him the amount he had planned to help with and told them to figure it out. The reception venue they had was expensive (cool, but fuck). We came in way under budget and can hopefully do a big anniversary party for a milestone (which will probably cost more than the first one did).

me and mh were going through some stuff before our move to hawaii a few years ago. we stumbled upon the receipt and warranty information for his ex’s wedding ring.
i’m not a jealous person and know he had a life before me but when i tell you i was beaming when we looked at the price. shitttt. 👸🏾💁🏾♀️
don’t pay attention to the fact that they were 18/19 and broke. no no. just be happy for me and my more expensive ring.

We have faced lay offs and new jobs and relocations and natural disasters and who made more has flip flopped multiple times in our relationship. So maybe that is why I don't have breadwinner feelings. I am very much here. I confess that I don't relate to those feelings at all. It matters not to me who makes more money so long as we are achieving our collective goals.

I dont enjoy weddings like I used to. Although, weddings on DH's side are so so OTT and the multiple outfit changes everyone does is fun to watch.

You literally did the thing you said you have never seen happen. She said she is devastated about losing her ring. You respond with "I don't care about rings or stuff." There is no other interpretation for this.
