Depends on the cut and clarity
 it’s not all about size!

Correct. Higher clarity over size, I’d take the blinding sparkle.

This is definitely a hot take but I don’t want a real Diamond when I get engaged- I have this tendency to fidget with things on my hands a lot and I’m scared I’ll lose the ring. Would rather get a fake Diamond and have the money go towards a retirement fund or property

200 minimum naturally perfect clarity and cut.

My fiancé wanted a round cut and asked that the size begin with a 2. I got her 2.05k w a cold band that had .35 carats of smaller diamonds 3/4 the way around. Bc it was a gold band I could save some money with a lower color grade. She also wanted a six prong ring which was good bc the prong covered up one of the imperfections on the outside. Everyone is different. Ask your dog others friends to do some snooping!

Sounds beautiful

I wanted (and got) at least 2 carats.

I asked my husband for just under a carat as the price jumps up a lot when you hit that round number. I also went for a halo to add some bling and size around the ring. I wanted a pretty ring, but also wanted to be practical as we bought our home that year and were paying for a wedding. Trust me, you won’t care as much once the thrill of the engagement passes and you start planning your life together.

Well I did a very bad thing... we found out this week my husband’s father has an aggressive terminal cancer. My father in law doesn’t want to tell anyone and I am supposed to not say anything. The only reason I know is because we live with him. When I was speaking to my mom on the phone I burst out crying and had to tell her, and I had another burst out crying event where I told a friend. I told my husband this and he is rightfully furious with me. :( not sure what I can do to make it right...

Does anyone here struggle with basic things at work? For example, being on time. I know it sounds basic, It’s not about waking up in time, my morning gets filled with something else, I misjudge time, I find something else to procrastinate. Second, filling out admin forms, I miss things, misunderstand. I am feeling really down on myself. I am I high performer and always deliver on complex projects, but these things, it’s like I’m totally out of it. Could it be ADHD? Depression (I’m medicated)?

How important is having a “name brand” on your resume? For context, undergrad at a top 10 non ivy that typically gets less name recognition and work experience at a T2 (LEK, P-EY, Kearney, etc). Feeling like my resume has a lot of silver but not gold. Thinking about switching jobs 2 years into consulting to either startup or small tech company (don’t want to be at FANG). Will adcoms / future job interviewers view this as a downgrade?
