Is the ring too small? Tell us what you REALLY think

‘A ring doesn’t indicate ones integrity, faithfulness, love, or ability to care for their family. Rings can be upgraded shallowness can’t,’ one commenter, Nikki, noted.

‘I got no ring when my husband proposed. We had no money. We worked TOGETHER and he was able to get me my dream ring 2 years after wedding,’ said another.

‘If the size of the ring is more important to you than the man who is giving it to you, do him a favour and say no. He deserves better,’ added Lea.

While plenty of women weighed in, men were also moved to comment with some insisting size wasn’t an issue.

‘My girlfriend picked out the engagement ring she wants. It’s smaller than that,’ wrote Chris.
