I wouldn't spend more than $100-200 on a rock, and I'd rather get a cheap tungsten carbide ring. That is, if I even get married. :fuckthatshit:

Everything regarding celebrating anything is a result of brainwashing.. valentines day, mothers day, and even christmas.

Even though I agree getting a fat ring out of your budget is ridiculous.. 200 bucks isn't really... "up to par" lol

I don't care if it's up to par, and I don't care about saving face. It's my money and I'll do what I want with it, and if my girl doesn't appreciate it, toodle-oo.

my close friend and his wife both agreed to go with cubic zirconia. if he didn't tell me, It could have fooled me.

lol, before making it past the op's post I knew exactly where this was headed...

but yes, 2 years is way to early in my mind...

at least now with her out of the picture, maybe he can pay off his debt faster/easier? maybe now he can get a roommate to ease the bills, move back home and rent his place out for an extra little bit of help etc.

If you're in the top 10% of men with looks, wealth, and charisma, all the power to you. If you're not, when you get to your 30s, this type of attitude leaves you underlaid and forever alone.

By all accounts, this woman is a princess and deserves to be dumped. But on the other hand, most women want some sort of engagement ring that at least looks somewhat impressive (cubic zirconia, or not unless you date someone from a village in Asia who has no expectations except citizenship.)

If you're with a woman who thinks she NEEDS a $XXXX ring then you deserve all the pain and anguish coming your way.

If he gets back with her and gets her the expensive ring she wants, he deserves what he is going to get.....a lifetime commitment to a selfish bitch. Hope he enjoys being her whipping-boy until death.

Here is a tip for all guys: Once you get a hint of this attitude from a chick, dump the motherfucker. There chicks act like this because you allow them too.

Dudes are always bitching about "Vancouver women" or "asian princesses"....guess what? They act like this because it works for them. Stop bowing down to this shit and they will stop. You don't give a 2 year old a chocolate bar because they scream louder, do you? You give a bigger ring because she pouts.

This is a brilliant idea!! Unless it is sitting next to a real diamond, nobody would ever know...and even then, unless you are an expert, I bet most would still get it wrong.

ya know.. . I was one of those 'saps' that went out and purchased the ring that 'she' wanted... came out to $12k or so for a 1 carat, yadda yadda yadda pure color/clear whatever ring.

BUT... she did give birth to my daughter who is the best and most priceless gift I can ever have.

But that's the issue if I don't accpet this type of attitude and dump her 99% of other men will bit the bullet and take it. So in the end that leaves me with no one........:okay:

Asian women are in demand in this city because many non-Asians have yellow fever. Asian men, on the other hand, cannot date outside of their ethnicity as easily for a variety of reasons including culture, family pressure, etc. Moreover, you have a higher percentage of women in Vancouver who stay at home into their 20s than you find in other cities which creates a false sense of entitlement.

........so, this is a reason to be someone's bitch? Better give her what she wants or she will break-up with me?

Wow. How does it feel to date some who doesn't respect you?

Yeah, I'm sorry...I really disagree with this (respectfully, of course).

I know more white chicks dating asian guys than I know white dudes dating asian girls. And, at the risk of sounding completely oblivious and naive, this "asian fever" thing is bullshit....a fad. Its like saying all white chicks want a black man. At one point, we all say it....but at the end of the say, we don't really care. You fall in love with who you fall in love with. The feeling I get here is that if a guy can bag and asian, he should do anything to hold on to her....because she is asian. Ridiculous, no?

Maybe its an age thing? Maybe its because I don't live in the middle of Asia town...I dunno...I just don't see it as you do.

Also, its not just women living at home into their 20s...look around here, all dudes...almost all live at home. This self-entitlement isn't just a chick thing. There is an entire generation full of brats.

I don't that that BS and that's why I am single =D well not all woman are bad. Last relationship I had, the girls was nothing like that. But 8/10 girls out there seems that way.

True some people chose to live at home though..... to you know save money so one day they can actually afford a place in this city...... among other reasons.

When 8 of 10 women whom you interact with are self-entitled cunts, that's a sign to reevaluate the way you meet women.

The majority of said people don't save a dime, and allocate a significant proportion of their income to discretionary spending.

Maybe, I haven't been ont he dating scene for awhile. Those that dont' save while living at home have no idea what's coming for them. If you are living at home you should be saving at least 50% of your income.

one half chooses to live at home so they can save for a house/their future(myself)

the other half live at home because they like to go to clubs/bars every weekend and act like ballers trying to impress women they don't know and never will.

I love those self entitled cunts, id always meet them at clubs lol. they'd come up to me and try to pull off the whole "your cute, wanna buy me a shot?" thing, so id make them work for it, talk to them, try not to laugh as they slur their words and ramble...id tell them when im done my drink we'll go to the bar and get tequila...id finish my drink, let them lead the way to the bar, and id walk off and start talking to a new girl who can entertain me for another 5-10 minutes lol.

Grim 09-18-2013 03:21 PM

It would fool anyone without a microscope. As long as you don't get something unrealistically big, it's kind of stupid NOT to get a fake or man made diamond.

Interesting observation, could be where I am living compared to you. But my friends and I have seen more asian women with non-asian men up to this point in our lives than we will probably ever see asian men with non-asian women for the rest of our lives. And I think we have a lot more years to go.

Hell I think see more asian women white male couples than asian-asian couples (not in Richmond though :D ).

My theory on why there's so much of this I think comes from the women being a lot more choosy then men are, whereas men are just being men pursing anything with a vagina regardless of race.

I do agree with the rest of your statements though.

Maybe I just need to move to where you are :badpokerface:

I spend 99% of my time north of the Fraser where the majority of second generation CBCs live. Whether it's in my building, at my local grocers, or downtown where I do my 9-5, the vast majority of mixed couples are Asian women/non-Asian males. There are not that many Asian people in Surrey and if there are, I suppose the women in that area of Metro Vancouver are less picky.

Mind you, I'm dating a non-Asian and I'm a CBC so perhaps I've got my blinders on or I'm biased. However, if there wasn't some truth to my observations, then why would Douglas Todd of the Vancouver Sun blog about it? Vancouver?s Asian men fear women prefer white guys | Vancouver Sun
