Hi all, I've posted here because it gets more traffic but feel free to move it :)
My DP and I have been together for 14 years, have lived together for 5 years and have no children. My DP has always been more keen to get married than I have but he has finally convined me and we got engaged at new year. We have been together since we were 16 and during our first year together my DP saved up from his weekend job to buy me a diamond ring, it's not flashy but means a lot to me and is in a vintage style which I love.
We have now started talking about choosing an engagment ring but money is tight and I'm not very materialistic however last night I have a brain wave - can't I just move my current ring onto my ring finger?! I like this idea because to me it means using a piece of jewellery that means a lot to me and in a way symbolises how our relationship has evolved.
Problem is DP hates the idea and thinks it makes him look tight and other people I've spoken to about it have pulled this face -->
So really I'm asking, is it such a chessy/bad/tight idea or can other people see my way of thinking?!
