Dear LIB readers: He wants me to buy the engagement ring

From a female LIB reader
My boyfriend told me he would have proposed to me but he doesn't have enough money to buy the kind of engagement he wants his woman to wear. He says if it is so important to me I could buy it and then he would pay me back later. Should I or shouldn't I?

Are you crazy?? Don't even think about it! These days many men are unpretentious that they are gold diggers. The harsh Nigerian economy has stripped some men their dignity and they just wait for women that will feed them. Erroneously it doesnt work that way in real life. Generally women need love and care from men. It works well that way cos it is nature's law and not the other way round.... don't allow him deceive you into buying your ring! He is the man... he should as much as buy you an engagement ring!!! else, tomorrow, you'll be the actual bread winner of the house!!!

Unknown said...

If u buy d ring, that means u are desperate, again it means u are the one engaging urself. Tell ur dude, that u can manage wat ever he buys for u. Besides the ring is not the only symbol of engagement. Tho its commonly used. Again, him going thru stress to get u that ring, proves more than enough to let u know that he is serious, its his duty to get the engagement symbol and not urs. So babe let d man do his duty.

LOOOL! There is nothing I will not hear. Are you even ready to marry someone that is not finacially stable? If you buy engagment ring, be rest assured you will pay for everything during your marriage.

Considering to do this is the height of desperation ladies!

Lyndy said...

Lolz, so funny. Pls tell him to buy d type dt he can afford. If I were u, I won't even accept his proposal. That guy is not serious.

Manage whatever ring he gives you. He can always replace it when you renew your vows and you are happily married with kids or not.

My dear,if he was serious,he would have saved money to buy the ring for you...even if he doesn't have the money,fine,he should buy the one he can afford abi na u dey force am to propose?don't buy ring for yourself oh!anyone he gives you,take.

Anonymous said...

Hell No!! If he cannot afford the ring then he can propose without one. When did it become that you cannot get engaged without a ring? Are you going to borrow him money for your bride price as well?

Looollllssss...laughing in Ibibo. Quit funny! Buy nah, since you have the money. I bet you should better plan on paying his dowry or better still, groom-price..LMAO!

Anonymous said...

DO NOT buy it.

Tell him to buy you a gold plated/costume jewelry and he can then buy the real deal later.

If you buy the engagement ring, will you also buy the wedding ring? Or will he also tell you to foot the whole wedding bill and he will pay you later?

Please don't start that culture.

Hell no, he'll tell u to pay 4 d wedding too, then the house, then he'll tell u to pay for the cars tew dtz bad news gul, he dosen't hv to buy a kim kardashian type of ring, he shld buy a ring dt he can afford, its important to u girl nd he shld buy d ring, dt is a crazy excuse, its either he dosen't want to marry u or he dosen't want to marry you

Anonymous said...

That will be a demeaning thing to do, besides it sounds like u re desperate to be engaged to this guy, remember getting engaged is nt same as getting married whichever one u re interested in, u ve to take things slow, u bf is nt even financially stable to start a family and u shouldn't put pressure on him otherwise u loose him or end up with him in regret. Pray for him for breakthrough and things will fall into place. Good Luck! **WiseOne**

Don't buy it, whenever he is ready and can afford it, let him buy it with his own money. Buying the ring for urself even if he pays you back means desperation on ur part.

left to me i wont buy it with my money, let him find the money and buy......................

Ufo said...

NOooooooo don't do it.. If he can't afford the engagement ring then maybe you two shouldn't be getting engaged!! He needs to man up besides you guys will be getting engaged to get married right. So if can't afford to get you an engagement ring how is he gonna afford to pay for the wedding or should I say his half of the wedding depending on the family arrangement..

Gosh no disrespect but there are certain things a woman should not have to compromise on. I personally will think the marriage is gonna be jinxed if I get my own engagement ring just saying!!

Up to you tho…Besides you are the one in a relationship with him and you know him better than everyone else here.. Wish you the best in whatever you decide…:)

@zinny said...

I won't even think about it twice...its a big NO..he would have just asked you to lend him money for something, then get the ring without telling you. But he is seeing you as being desperate that's why he asked you to go get it yourself.

Anonymous said...

Hot mess! Why are some women so stupid? Do not emasculate men! Let a man be a man. When he's saved enough money, then he can propose. Gosh!

Anonymous said...

I disagree. From d sentence above, it means, d ring isn't important to him that's y d phrase''if its so important to me'' he's just hiding under the guise of not having enough money. Gurl, please don't engage urself o... Wait let him have enough money,if u can't, please move on o! Its d worst tin a gal can do to herself. In d nearest future, he will say- afterall he didn't buy d ring, u were too pushy!

See ehn if its plastic he has let him propose with it. Just so far as its him that bought it. Why will he fall the hand of us men? What message is he trying to pass to you? That y'all should be fake?

Tam said...

So funny, how can a man ask u to buy an engagement ring meant for u wt your own money? If he truly want to be engaged to u, he can get a ring as cheap as 1k and give u wt love now, then work his ass very hard to afford d one he prefers his woman to wear, & change it. If u buy it, u ll pay for d wedding, pay for his suit & forever pay be d breadwinner of d family. He is a shame to manhood.

Jade said...

Don't buy it darling. Truth is he is just not that into you! Men are wired to go after what they want,if he really wants to put a ring on it,he would. Maybe not as expensive as Kim's,but a ring nonetheless.

My dear don't even think of it, I can assure you he wouldn't pay you back, he probably doesn't have any plans of engaging you talk more of marrying you. Tell him to kick start the marriage process if he is serious about settling down with u, cos a wedding ring is more valuable than an engagement ring. I really don't understand why women are so desperate to settle they would do anything.

Unknown said...

Rubbish! If he doesn't have the money to buy the one he wants, he should buy the one he can afford cos it can always be changed when money comes. What matters is that he gave it to u not that u bought it for yourself. When the desireable is not available, the available becomes the desireable. Unless he's just fooling and using u cos it sounds like u are the one that has the moneyand might be there cos of it.

He should be thoroughly ashamed of himself for asking you to buy an engagement ring for yourself. Believe me if you buy it it will turn into an insult someday. He will say afterall you engaged yourself.

Please don't. Trust me. It's obvious the guy doesn't truly love you and only said tht because u probably raised a question about when you guys would get married. By saying, "If it's so important to you", it's obvious that it's not important to him and he just wants u off his back. Pls a broken engagement is better than a broken marriage. Be with sb tht truly wants to be with you and would go to any length to get u a ring and make u happy.

My dear please first things first. If a man wants to marry you,he will even buy what he can afford so he can keep you. Also,the way he put it across to you about the ring: "if it is soo important to you.... " are you the only one getting married,should it not be important to both of you? So you need to really consider whether he is certain in marrying you in the first place.
lf he is, then do not buy your own ring,tell him to buy whatever he can afford,after all,you are spending your life together. Then,see what happens. Good luck

I do not think it is a good idea for you to buy it is likely to affect his ego even though he has suggested it....that is men for you. He will begin acting funny and you would never imagine in your wildest dreams that the ring is the cause of your problems.

It is better for him to buy what he can afford no matter how cheap and he can change it when he has got more money.

Den u tek it to ur priest/pastor to bless. Chikena.

Don't you dare buy yourself an engagement ring!!!!!!

What effrontery ! See the way he even twisted the grammar to justify himself. Let me tell you, the two times I ve dogded a bullet in this life where with two guys who had similar mind sets .

The first said, oh it's just a ring , that he can buy it anytime. He turned out to be a scammer only interested in my money

The second proposed without a ring and turned out to be a girlfriend beater / future wife beater had I agreed.

Even if he's a pauper, N200 ring will do so far as he takes the effort to buy one........wether paper ring o, bronze ring o, cupper ring o, gold ring o.........HE MUSTU make the effort to get you a ring otherwise there's something else he's playing you for.

Over and out!!!

Starry_viv said...

I won't buy

Shyla said...

Akuko mgbedeu. Buy gini? Then you buy and you present to him to present back to you on bended knees? Nonsense. He does not have the money to buy one, then stay without one. I hope he will get enough money to even buy you the wedding ring befitting you as he claims when the time comes too. Orisirisi

Poverty is not about having no cash, but all about having nothing upstair ur mind. Shame on the girl, not the poor boy. Cos the guy saw the gal as one cheap galfrnd. Cheers. Engr E

What's the meaning of that? Well... it depends on the type of relationship you guys have and your understanding
Cos next thing he might tell you to pay for your wedding gown. So if he is a truthful person and truly things aren't going well for him, you can buy or better still tell him you don't mind any one he can afford

the guy is a joker! it's as simple as that!
he's not ready to be committed and responsible!
my advice: RUN!
