Asked my youngest if he was going to marry his POOSSLQ (no judgement, I was just curious). She said “Not until he askes right!” Later I asked him what that meant: “I dunno; I guess there’s supposed to be a ring and stuff.”
A month or two later I was in a store and saw a Christma ornament of a huge (about 3" stone) plastic diamond solitare; I bought it & sent it to him. He whipped out & asked, she said yes – that’s how I knew he had the right girl.
Funny — there is a commercial from the Jewelry Design Center on TV right now. Coincidence? I hope so.
Neighborly? You do your thing and I’ll do mine and we will wave to each other when when we both emerge from our houses at the same time. Maybe even exchange pleasantries on occasion.
My phone cost more than the use I get out of it. Nice to have when you need it, though.
My engagement right cost $25 from a second-hand/antique store. It was old and fragile and I had it copied on our 10th anniversary. That one cost $200. I still love it after 33 (more) years.

Um… Ex-wife, isn’t it?
For some reason(s.)
And once more, I went off to fetch the question…
just for you guys, I want you to know.
I mean, if it were just for me, I’d answer it @Tony and not even tell you what he asked.
But out of the goodness of my heart… I give you all Tony’s Question.
(And remember… I just deliver ‘em; I sure as heck don’t write ’em.)
“Neighborly?”
Well, they seem to be…..
cos in spite of the (mostly feigned, IMHO) animosity,
they must enjoy each other, or they wouldn’t share that sort of personal information…
much less meet out there every Wednesday.
Wait…. are you asking whether I’m neighborly?
OK…..
Why?
Do you need to borrow a cup of sugar?
Car need a jump?

Wise man – you get just as engaged with a cheap ring, and have the rest of the money to do more important things, like save for a deposit for a house.
Or get a new phone.

Well at least he’s not as cheap as Dalton Humphrey.
