I don’t spend too much time thinking about engagement rings or what I want in one but I understand the desire to be particular about one. You wear it every day (ideally) for the rest of your life. Try and imagine having to wear something you hate for the rest of your life – it’s like a real life “would you rather”
@ the person who’s with a guy that says he doesn’t want a serious relationship: believe him. If he’s not ready for you now, he won’t be ready for you ever. My sophomore year of college, I was hanging out with a guy consistently from the time we met until I took classes abroad that summer. He even told me at one point he loved me, but didn’t want to commit. When I came back to the US (after hearing very little from him that summer, which I had assumed was due to the time difference) he wanted to be official, which sounded like he was finally committed. Not very long after I found out he had a thing with another girl over the summer and after she brutally rejected him I guess he decided I was “good enough”. We had a miserable break-up within 3 months of getting together. Point of the story: don’t settle for being good enough for someone, be with someone who makes you feel more than adequate and wants you right away. 30 isn’t that old, you have time.
I feel your pain, freshman year of high school I confronted my best friend about she and my “ex” (who I was not over – lol middle school boyfriends) flirting in front of me, and she freaked out saying I was telling everyone she was several synonyms for a prostitute, and none of my friends talked to me for about 7 months. Fun fact, a month after she dropped me, she started dating the guy and no one else saw anything wrong with that.

Just to clarify, I mean while waiting in line to board when I get defensive about my place in line and paranoid that someone’s going to cut
I get so paranoid that people are going to act shitty when the board that I preemptively become that shitty person.

The worst part about the DR wedding story is the misspelling of Pittsburgh
I agree with this, obviously not in a serious relationship, but if you’ve only gone out a few times it’s for sure less of a dick move than ghosting.
“Sperry” jesus christ
