Would You Decline a Marriage Proposal If You Didn't Like The Ring?

I've read several articles claiming that most women actually don't like their engagement rings and would pick a different one if they could. Do you like your engagement ring? Why or why not? Would you decline a marriage proposal if you didn't like the ring? Why or why not?

    I don't think you can decide from the engagement ring whether someone really values you. After all, most women don't present their FIs with an engagement ring, not even a rubber band. Should we assume they don't value their FIs?

    I don't totally agree with that. I would think that proposing with no ring and proposing with a rubber band, ring pop, or anything of that sort is a very different story. Every woman is different but for me personally, I wouldn't think he valued me. I would have loved to present my then-fiance with an engagement ring but it's not really a social norm, it is a topic that we discussed. I actually just made a discussion post about that.

    We also have no tattoos which is more rare these days so I can totally relate.

    We may definitely be one of the few people in the world without a single tattoo.

    I wore a simple pendant and the bridal hair combs (no veil). Which is far more than my usual. Usually I only have a fit bit that doubles as my alarm clock/watch and two hair bands.

    I don't really have a reason for wearing it, so I don't. I had my ears pierced before, but just from disuse the holes filled in. I also have somr pendants and such. They just collect dust unless it's a fancy job event... Even then rarely.
