Today, my boyfriend proposed. The ring just had a piece of graphite on it. My boyfriend argued that since graphite and diamonds are both just forms of carbon, it is the same thing. FML

why are you bitching? at least you know he wants to spend the rest of his life with you now, so shut the **** up and be happy.

what's wrong with people today. at least he wants to marry you. stop being so vain. guys don't get shit when we marry. the only thing we get is a nagging wife with bills piling up.

I see both sides here: the OP may feel that her boyfriend was just looking for a loophole in buying a diamond, since he didn't seem to give much of an explanation. If he had gone into detail about how love isn't about the ring, then he would have been understood better. But many girls do dream of that diamond one day, and it might come as a disappointment if your boyfriend makes excuses like "it doesn't matter if it's not exactly a diamond, right?"

So long as the band is nickel-free, I'll take him! :D

I hope you said no. It's better for him. A genius like him deserves someone who isn't a materialistic Bitch.

I like your boyfriend. that's funny. you shouldn't be so hung up on getting a diamond, that's not the important part.
