I’ll try to keep this short. My wife and I divorced after 18 years of marriage,5 years ago and I’m still financially recovering. My current girlfriend who I dated for three years we live together, and I don’t see myself ever being without her. So I have decided I want to ask her to marry me, however, I don’t have the financial means to purchase the needed hardware that I and she would find acceptable. By the time the marriage comes if she agrees then I will have what ring is needed. Does anyone have any experience with a way to ask a woman to marry you (we both are in our late 40s and this is both of our second marriage) without having the ring you would both approve of? Any of you ladies out there? Have you ever been in a similar situation? I know this sounds crazy like I should wait and what not but I just wanna make sure we stay together for the rest of our lives. Thanks for reading this

Honestly the ring doesn’t matter at all if you guys are in love and want to spend your lives together.
Don’t wait. Buy her a pretty birthstone ring and tell her that you will eventually replace it with something more special that you will pick out together.
There are some gorgeous lab created diamond rings. Let here know your financial situation and when you are more stable you plan on giving her what she deserves!
Thank you both for sharing that info
