Transcript
- 0:00Do you want to five? It's the Erica Show. I'm Erica DeLong Trevor
- 0:02out back next week. We're talking about the size of your diamond. Doesn't
- 0:06really matter when you get engaged, how big the diamond is. We got
- 0:09an anonymous DM. She wants to remain anonymous. She said, I've been
- 0:14with my now fiance for almost five years. He is the love of my
- 0:17life. He surprised me with an engagement, you know, this big proposal.
- 0:21It was fantastic, except for the ring was very, very small.
- 0:25She was like, I mean really small, and she said, I'm not
- 0:27normally a material person, but in this case, it's so small, I'm
- 0:33embarrassed to show my friends and family. She said. He makes a very
- 0:35good living, and so it's not that we couldn't afford a bigger ring,
- 0:38she said, So I feel like he didn't give me what I deserved.
- 0:42Do you think I should say something to him and ask for what I really
- 0:45want? Or should I just be quiet? All right, so I'm sure
- 0:49the phones are gonna blow up nine one nine eight six zero one oh five
- 0:53one. What are your thoughts on what she should do? Should she say
- 0:57something and tell him what she really wants or just be thankful and don't say
- 1:00anything at all? Shana? What do you think? Oh? No,
- 1:04I think I mean, I don't think it's about the ring, really,
- 1:07I know. I mean, yes, it's nice to have a big ring,
- 1:10but maybe the Jenior Anniversary or jen year renew also get a bigger ring.
- 1:14You could just let him know how important that is to her. Thank
- 1:17you, Shannon. And what do you think should she say something to him
- 1:19or keep her mouth shut? I mean, how do you feel if he
- 1:23makes a lot of money, do you think he should have gone bigger on
- 1:26the diamond? Nine one nine eight six o one oh five one? Do
- 1:29you na? Five? It's stay er because show somebody wrote us wants to
- 1:32stay anonymous because her fiance now fiance bought her ring proposed for. The ring
- 1:38was much much smaller than she had wanted. She said that he makes plenty
- 1:42of money and so it wasn't money that was an issue, but he got
- 1:45a small ring and she wanted to know should she say something or should she
- 1:48not? Nine one nine eight six one oh five one? Chrystal, what
- 1:52do you think? All right? Look, I understand wanting a better ring
- 1:57or a bigger ring, but that can come later what you really and that
- 2:00everybody says this focus on the marriage, not the wedding, but it is
- 2:05true. Are you marrying somebody who has your back no matter what? Those
- 2:09are the things that are important. Who cared what people think about your ring?
- 2:14Also, you can get a black ear wedding band, you know something
- 2:19that you'd like to wear just the wedding band. I wear just my wedding
- 2:22band quite often, so I would make he focus on that. This also
- 2:25could be a good self lesson of self test to stop worrying about those outside
- 2:30opinions outside of your relationship, or stop worrying about material things. So I
- 2:35want to hear from you. What are your thoughts nine one nine eight six
- 2:37one oh five one Should she say something because her ring was smaller than she
- 2:42warn't? Do you? N F five It's the Erica Show. I'm Erica.
- 2:44Thank you so much for listening and taking your thoughts on whether or not
- 2:47our anonymous listener should tell her fiance that the ring is too small. She's
- 2:53newly engaged and she was very disappointed by how small the ring is. It's
- 2:58not a money issue, she said, he makes of money. So far,
- 3:00everybody said absolutely don't say anything. That's what everybody's saying. Maybe the
- 3:05ten year anniversary you can upgrade, But Lexie, you're saying something different.
- 3:09It kind of matters if she had already talked to him about it or like
- 3:15what she wanted first. She kind of made it clear that she wanted a
- 3:19certain style. Then absolutely say something because of that. But I also think
- 3:25that she should say something regardless because I have a ring that means the world
- 3:31to me and I just value it and feel so precative of it, and
- 3:36I would love for her to feel the way that I feel about my ring
- 3:39with her ring because it's very spectful and you know, she doesn't have to
- 3:44get mad and made a big deal, but let him know that it bothers
- 3:46you. And I look at it every day and it's a reminder of,
- 3:51you know, like why I'm doing it, and it's not just money,
- 3:54but it's love and I love my ring. So all right, well,
- 3:58thank you where are you calling us from? Riley? Thank you so much,
- 4:00Lexi, thank you, And if you want to still chime in,
- 4:03hit me up in the dams. Add Eric and DeLong. I'm going to
- 4:05be passing all of this information over to ear listener
