I got the man’s ring!

Yup, I bought it this weekend! We picked out his ring a few months back, but we hadn’t thought much about it because you don’t generally have to “jump” on a man’s ring like you have to jump on some women’s rings. Mine, for example, was a limited production so once we found it, we had to scoop it up quick, and good thing we did ’cause now I can’t find a ring like it anywhere. His ring, on the other hand, allowed us to take our sweet time, so that’s just what we did.

Then, on Friday morning, I woke up with a strong urge to “make it official”. Luckily for the both of us, our ring fingers are case-sized (he’s a 10, I’m a 7), so we don’t have to wait to get them sized or anything, we just go to the store, pay for the ring, and it’s ours; easy as pie.

I tell you though, once I officially had Mr. Rainbow’s ring in my possession I was like, “woah, this is really happening.” Of course, I was fully aware that it was already “really happening”, but there was just something about actually having his ring finally. It was exciting, and romantic, and a little bit scary. I think Mr. R even secretly felt that way when he found out that I bought the ring, although he’s not admitting it.

When he got home from work that day, he was like a giddy little kid—like he often is when he’s excited—but you didn’t hear that from me. He couldn’t wait to try the ring on, and when he did it fit perfectly. He even asked if he could “wear it for the night to see what it’s like”. After quick consideration, we decided against it, but how cute is it that he wanted to test drive it? Hehe, I love that man, he’s so adorable.

And here it is, Mr. Rainbow’s very own ring (or as his friend V likes to call it, “The Noose”. He’s a romantic, can you tell?)

When did you buy your FI’s ring? Did you have a “woah” moment where you realized “this is actually happening”?
