FS: engagement ring

well after 6 1/2 years in the relationship and 1 year of being engaged i am now single. i got the ring back. and need it to go away. don't like looking at it. i bought it at helzberg diamonds in 2006 for $1,299.99 and just took it back there to get replated and cleaned and all that good stuff. they apraised it at $1,399.99. which surprised me. but i am a realist and know that i won't get that for it. so i am asking $650 for it. i am willing to trade parts for it. would rather have the money as i need a new clutch. i am in new york at the moment and don't have any pictures with me. i will post them when i get back in town (indy). that will prolly be friday or so. thanks.

well i am not home at the moment. i live in indiana but i am in new york for my grandfather's funeral. so i won't be able to get the pics and the exact info until i get back. but i can tell you all that its a 1/3 ct. and has 10 smaller diamonds that go down the band. it is white gold. and like i said before it apraised for $1399.99. so its in awesome shape. its getting completely replated right now so that whenever someone buys it you'll never know that it was worn. also i bought a lifetime warranty with it and that goes with it when and if someone buys it. but i will have more info and specs on it when i get back home on friday or saturday. thanks for being intersted in it.

now for the sad/good part. well in december of 06' we built a house on 5 acres. in all was like $230,000. and in may of 07' i popped the question. she said yes of course. but its like when she got that ring it flipped her bitch switch. we were arguing all the time about me not spending enough time with her. and i'll tell ya that couldn't be further from the truth. i actually lost some friends because i stopped hanging out with them for her. and then it was "you need to stop spending money on that stupid orange car". well first of all i was the one that paid every bill except the house payment. and that was all of $800 a month.
back to the $230,000 part real quick. out of that $230,000 we only financed $120,000. her grandparents are loaded. and spoil her like crazy. shes 21 and has had a house and 2 brand new cars. a 2003 eclipse worth $25,000 and traded that in on a dodge calliber worth $25,000. all paid in cash. needless to say she doesn't know how to actually work for ****.
but anyway back to what i was talking about. anytime that i bought something for my car she would through a fit and just go nuts. well this went on for a year. in which she treatened countless times if i bought another part for my car we were done. well i was on my way to diesel nationals at oriely raceway park when i get a phone call from her. she says "now you need to be 100% honest with me right now..... have you bought anything for your car lately"? i said no. and then right before she blows up i remembered that i just bought a $50 soleniod for my meth kit. so i told her. well before i can say anything else she says "you know what i have told you for a year. and this is the last straw. do you wanna work on things or come get your ****"? it took me about 5 seconds and i said "well i guess i'll be there in about an hour to get my ****". so i did. and here i am. single due to a $50 solenoid. **** IT!!

Thats bullshit bro. You're better off without her. If she really loved you she'd accept your hobbies as part of you and it shouldnt matter what the **** you spend your money on.

+1 on both accounts man...

She must have been incredible in the sack to put up with that **** for a year. if she acted that way after geting the ring (I think the timelines match-up). Imagine how she would have been when you got married. John Wayne Bobbitt anyone?
