Well, I did it....
....I just took the first step towards the "big plunge". I just bought my girlfriend of 6 years an engagement ring. I am kind of in shock that I did it. I saw the ring, thought it was perfect, and it was right in my price range......

****, I am nervous....and I have no idea when I am going to ask her. Our 6 year anniversary is in January, but I don't think I can wait that long.....

imported_Sincere is an unknown quantity at this point
Congratulations brother. Very glad to hear it. But I wouldn't be too worried...She's put up with your antics for 6 years now, like ya say, and in my book that's as close to set in stone as ya can get.

huge tip: never do it as a present. NEVER. Not to be the negative one in the bunch, but should anything go wrong if she says it was a present she can keep it, if it's an engagement ring that can't be deemed a present (anniversary present or christmas present) then if the worst happens, by law, she has to give it back. Not trying to be negative but y'know its good to be safe. Congrats tho, like Ben said it's pretty much set in stone so good luck!

Me too.....but it is also kind of exciting. More than likely I am going to ask her next week. She wants to go engagement ring shopping (just to look), and I would hate for her to find some ring that she absolutely loves, when I already bought her one.

When I ask her I'll be sure to let yall know how it goes.....thanks for the input and well wishes.

Also, I'd love some proposal ideas......

Congrats Drake! I'm envious. I dont' even have a girlfriend.

Hay, i guess this means the car mod money is going to something else for a while huh?
