I guess it would depend on how much it meant to him. I think it's a little rediculous myself, but if my man insisted on it.. well.. I'd be cool with it for him.

And I wouldn't ever think to get whatever guy I'm with one either. Jewellery's not one those things I really think about much. And especially in those terms, I see it as pointless since you both know you love each other and are wanting to be committed. You don't need a ring for that.

After my husband proposed to me, I surprised him by proposing to him later and giving him a white gold band. When we got married, I gave him a titanium band.
