What am I going to watch on Mondays?!!!!I mean, I complained about the acting but the script was banging!

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

I am sooooooooooo confused. One moment the outside looks like it is night time, and then one sho tit looks like late afternoon. Then once the door is opened to the store you can tell it is a studio fake backdrop. Do they think I dont pay attention to the outside scene?

And then Christina left her laptop open with commentary about Val on it which is meant for her class vlog. Shame.By the way… I LOVE this look that Keisha has on….cute from head to toe.

Wait! Did they tell Val that she is wrong for sticking up for what she believed in? WHO IN THE HELL WROTE THIS MESS?! Val, if youwant a marriage and kids, you tell him. And if that is not what he wants, you cut your strings and you keep it moving. If he wants to be with you then he will meet you at the alter with a bag of frozen sperm. But you should never cut out something as important as marriage and kids. *SIGH* This advice is merely for entertianment and plot forwarding purposes. Read the rest of this entry »

Okay, why is Val rocking this gorgeous dress in the middle of her shop? Oh, she is rocking it for a customer who is the same size as her. The cups of the dress are weird on her breasts though…yet still adorable. Read the rest of this entry »

Okay, so, I am still writing this, semi-on time…lol. I woke up in the middle of this and them blogged about Alphas followed by Basketball Wives. So, I had to come back to this.This is what happens when so many black shows come on in one night. I think they do that on purpose to cut down ratings. It is a conspiracy. C-O-N….Spiracy! lol. Leh Go!

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

I love the song that is playing when the show comes on. Unfortunately, I HATE Christina’s outfit. WHY does she have on this neon skirt and her shirt is tucked in? FUGLY! I love this Janelle Monet looking outfit that Val has on. CUTE! So Val is wanting to have a dinner where all of their guys can meet. Well, April doesn’t have a guy so how does she fit in.

So Christina has been dating this new dude and she hasn’t had sex in 3 weeks with him. I hate females like her. I mean, get it in, but if a man takes it slow, appreciate him and then blow HIS back out when the time finally comes…lol.

I know these legs any where!!! Denise (Kelly Rowland) is already being rude and just wanting to use April for a free shopping spree at V’s.  So Denise is a DJ who April is trying to get to play Reed’s CD. And then she boasts of a Mercedes ( two-seater) with a Bose sound system….while telling April to pay for the rest of the shopping spree. I just need for April to get out of denial about how she feels about Reed.

This kinky set-up sex with her dude is disturbing. It is not as sexy as they think it is. Read the rest of this entry »

Oh yeh, I found out that the fashion designer in charge of Val’s outfit is none other than Atlanta’s own… Anthony Williams. You may know him from Project Runway.  It explains the out-there designs that sometimes work and sometimes don’t. Just saying. I’ve still got love for him though.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

Late… I know… shut up.

 Okay, soooo How long has Val known Jerry before she lets him in her house, stand behind her and watch her turn her alarm off. Wait… didn’t someone JUST rob their house?*sigh* And couldn’t they have said all of this shit downstairs. And can Val PLEASE rock a bra in at least one of these episodes.

Ewwwww MORNING BREATHE and she is whispering… Does Keisha not smell her breathe while she is all up in her face. Loving the iPad advertisement…lol.

 Okay… so in college Val had a lesbian encounter with Sharon Love ( Queen Latifah). Sweeeeet.

 This artist Reed that April is supposed to be helping… I wouldnt have stuck my neck out for him. Wait… April is stupid with this money situation. I would have made Reed sign a contract and promise is first drug free child before I offered up to use my own money on his project. Hell. I wouldn’t even offer my money.

 Bwhahahahahaha “gay-looking” life. Hahahaha. Hahahah “Americais going to need another big-boned black woman, with amble bosoms to cry into.” WowSharon. And ummm… I saw the paparazzi thing happening the minuteSharonwent to brush off the “lint”

 WTF does Val have on? This pleatheristic, ill-fitting shirt and tight ass shorts look like a jacked up Halloween costume. I love the fact that he is mature enough to bring up the fact that Val use to date Q who was engaged to his daughter and happens to play for the team that he owns. And they must REALLY want the advertisement bucks….niiice Xbox connect.

 Bwhahahaha “You might want to butch up your run.” Who says that? Lol. But at least Keisha passed her real estate exam. I am loving this red ensemble that Keisha has on. WHO DESIGNED THAT!? I sooo want the dress… I wonder if they have it in purple.

 Sucks that Keisha is falling for Malcolm but Malcolm is just happy with them being booty call friends. Shame, isn’t that how it always it? Keep the panties to yourself girl.

 What is up with these yeast-culminating shorts that Christina have on? And her sleeping with her professor just looks like trouble. He looks like a stalker. But I love her bike though.

Okay, so Biz Markie is playing this dope producer called Super Tracks… interesting. And he’s had a crush on Keisha for how long? No comment. And who are the video infection tricks walking down the hall? But I am stealing her line though, “ Sorry boo, you’re like 5 years too late. I’m that chick they call now.” FRESH!!!  Even though I want to tell her that it is never that hot to be dressed like that in public. Sorry boo, I’m that chick they call dressed. Lol. But what the hell does Reed have on?

 Why does Super Tracks sound like he is running out of breath when he is talking to and/or about Keisha? Lol. OH SNAP!!!! Reed can really sing?!!! Who knew? I mean the beat is fresh and dope…until I look over and see Biz doing this head wobble with this hilarious grin. Bwhahahahaha Did he practically just came when he gave Keisha a hug? Lol. That’s what it looked like.

 Go head Diamond (Keisha), tell this little chicken head to make that money and don’t let it make her! Lol.  MESSAGE!

 WAAAAAAIT! So this little hoochie is Malcolm’s little sister? Bwhahahahahaah So Keisha slept with some dude and didn’t even know he had a sister. WOWZERS! MESSAGE!

 Ummmm can someone please tell me why Val fell back like she got punched in the face via the game.  Wait… didSharonjust say that “gay is the new black”? SoSharonneeds Val to pretend to be her lesbian lover until sweeps of her new show. Shame.

 SNAP!!! Reed overdosed!!!! So is he dead or is he just in the hospital?

Okay, so Tanya, Malcolm’s sister, did some porn so he bought Jasmine’s book to hide it. The same book that wrote about how Keisha stole Malcolm’s watch from Cam’ron’s set. FINALLY!!!! Malcolm confesses his true feelings for Keisha!!! YES!!!! *Standing O!!!!! That was sooooo sweet! I love it!!!

 Okay, so Reed is alive. He just OD-ed. Wait… did she really just bring him back to her new house. And this furniture is horrible!

 YIPEEE!!! Keisha and Malcolm are having sex!!! Sexy! So HOT!!!  But I feel some kind of way about it though… like she had to be dissed and dogged by him and play games before she finally got him. *Sigh* okay, I wont dwell. Hmmmm. Black love is beautiful!!! I want someone to butter my toast, too.

 Next week, well technically today’s, episode looks HOT!!!! Cant wait. I promise to be on time. Lol.

Yup… still running behind. I have SOOOOO Much to do and so little time. I promise one day I will run my own business and make a living at it and have enough time in one day to finish all tasks.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

I need to learn how to play poker. I think they are playing poker….lol. Yep… its poker. Charles? Sexy Banker 37….. and why is she running off this man’s credentials like this? I mean, no WONDER why these women are single as hell. Hell… at least they have first dates, woman, you better enjoy this.

P.S. This acting sucks. It had something to do with the tone of Lisa Raye’s and Stacy’s voice. If they spoke in a little lower tone it would seem less fake.  The Janet jokes were funny though, clever.

And WHAT is up with these red pleatheristic pants that Val had on. Pleather looks HORRIBLE on a big ass and this tiny ass it looks like it is trying to scrunch up. This is a HUGE fashion FUCK NAWL!Wait…. is her blouse TUCKED INTO THESE TACKY PANTS?!!! That stylist should be fired!

Amadeo? Or however you would spell this personal trainer’s name. lol. Wait… did he just say that chocolate offers and energetic boost? COME BE MY TRAINER!!!!! Wait, this is borderline molestation… I mean, how long has he been her trainer? I mean… we saw that one coming……sex was just bound to happen. I mean, the scene where he had her leg up by his neck… he looked like a Romance novel…lol.  Well, good to know that he likes his “chocolate” lol But sex on the couch though? And this isn’t even your house? Just TRIFFLING!

I love the golf outfit that Val has on. And I have a feeling that April’s card is going to be declined… DAMN!!! I didn’t even get to type it out before the clerk said it was declined. And who is this older dude in the golf club?

And why does April still have a shared account with her husband if he has already threatened to take half of her trust fund? Either she is stupid or this is some bad writing. Again…. I’m not trying to Lets Stay Together This!!!

And this guys just offered to pay for the $2000 worth of stuff that Val purchased.  Oh, his name is Geri or Jerry….however he wasn’t to spell it. So Jerry Waters. Interesting. How come I couldn’t find a guy to do that for me when I was in Atlanta?

Okay, did Christina suck Val Stokes into this college party? And the sleeves on Keisha’s dress just messed this dress up for me. And why is Keisha upset that Malcolm is in a magazine with another model. I thought that you were through with him. Chuck it up and stop complaining. Also, who is this youngin’ playing Clayton Dixon? He is juicy!!! But no, seriously, how old is he in real life, because he can get it! And hold up!! Did OMAR just find a college dude to holler at? He should have checked for ID. And Christina is sexing the professor in the bathroom? That girl and her sex issues make my stomach hurt!

Omar is so fine to me. Why do all of the cute ones have to be gay?

WOW!! Darryl bought a Beamer!!!! But he used April’s money. And cant April sue him for this. I really HATE his acting. I mean, I REALLY HATE his acting. Again… why does she have a shared account with her soon-to-be ex-husband?!!!!

And Omar blatantly hitting on Jerry? I mean, he could have been a new customer or something. Do professionals do that? I mean, the way that Val lets her people act in her business blows me. Well This entire sequence where Jerry talks Val into going to dinner with him, was cute… drawn out.. But cute.  Also, that is the SIMPLIEST lock on a business that I have ever seen. My cousin pookie could pick that with my Aunt’s sewing shears.

Wait, They live across the street or near the business? WTF is this tutu & bedazzled 80’s gym shirt that Val has on for this date? Some of her outfits are starting to confuse me. I know you can think outside of the box but this shit is not even cute! SNAP! So she walks into the house and it looks like someone has robbed her blind. Hmm… she did have that deposit from the store on her and Omar did offer to drop it off. She should have let him. SMDH.

Okay, so why does this sequence look like something out of a politician getting arrested for bribery? All of this cash is April’s and Keisha’s and they are hiding it so Uncle Sam and Darryl can’t get it. Funny.  Okay, so the Italian personal trainer that Keisha slept with possibly robbed them?

And this outfit that Christina has on is cute with the cut jean shit, glimmer dress but these bots make me want to holler!!! But this White and black ensemble that Val has on is cute!!!!! It makes up for the other mess she had on.  And the editing for this scene between Val and Jerry is horrible. When the camera is looking at her face, she is holding this yellow clutch down below her waist, but when it flips behind her to get a look at Jerry’s face….her arms are crossed without a clutch…lol. I mean all within a matter of seconds the switch keeps coming back and forth.  Jerry Waters….owner of the basketball team that her ex, QUINN, plays for!!!!

And can someone… I mean ANYONE hit Darryl with a bus!!!! He just called Val a bitch!!! HIT THIS FOOL SO WE CAN WRITE HIM OUT OF THE SHOW!!!! But I love Val’s red bottoms….cute! And April is moving out of Val’s house….wouldn’t that flag how April has money that she is keeping from Darryl?

And Queen Latifah is playing a news anchor named Sharon. WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Val slept with Sharon when they were in college?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just know that the net has to be going wild about this being an undercover way for Queen to come out of the closet!!! Wait, has she come out already? Hell if I know. But WOW!!!! My mouth can’t close!!!

You know where I will be next week!!!

We already know that I’m late writing this, via my Basketball Jump-off post (Basketball Wives). So let it go and let’s watch the show, shall we? Thank the Lawd for DVRs

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

Oka, so if this the dude, Sebastian, from the last show that called her while she was at the table with Lamman?And what is up with this lace doilie looking shirt that Val has on? And then he called her a tease. Wow! He said that it is time to pay up just because he paid for her meals. OUCH!!! She said that just in case he cant read the sign on the wall says exit….lol.  Ummm… did April say that it is customary to give it up on the third date, and then Val returns with “isn’t it customary to honor your vows”.

Wait…. so April and her husband are back in marriage counseling? WHY? I swear this doilie shit makes Val look like something from the Victorian period.

Wait… someone broke into the store, and it turns out to b Christiana and some random dude having sex in the front window of Val’s store. Bwahahahah! I need Val to be around when I get arrested to talk to officer out of arresting me.

OUCH! This horrible acting between April and her husband makes me want them to hurry up and get a divorce just so that I dont have to see them fake this any more. I mean, really… he tells her how he is going to play dirty during the divorce? He would have to be stupid because she could turn it on him and use it for her benefit. I swear I want to Let’s Stay Together this show. Dont make me do it! I will, Lawd knows I will.

Bwahahahahahaha funny! They are listing all of the places where people have had sex in the store! JUST NASTY!!!

WOWZERS!! Malcolm just played Keisha….lol. funny! But this banter between the two of them is the best acting on the show to date!!!!

Casey? I’m tired of trying to keep up with who Val is seeing. The list of Val’s current men takes about as much time as me trying to decipher the Racks on Racks lyrics….lol DAYUM!!!! Casey’s body with the tatts look sexy as shit!!!!!! *shivers* Come hold me ….lol. And whatever! I would have let Casey cuddle with hisstiff manhood and all! That is a compliment! lol. Val just didnt trust herself….that is why she told him to back up…lol.

And April keeps stepping up trying to prove herself at this record label. I just feel like I am watching a dog beg.

WHY is Lisa Raye wearing these wigs!!! She is NATURALLY beautiful! I dont get it. GET IT MALCOLM!!!! I love this scene with the two of them at this pool table. SEXY!!!! *Rewind*. hahahahah The “quite a hump” line while Malcolm rubs Keisha’s but…..classic!!! lol. Didnt even see it coming. Kudos to the writer who didnt make that cheesy! And then Malcolm suggests that they just be friends? WTF!!!! Ugh!!! Nooooooo!!!! Who does that?!

What in the WORLD is wrong with Christina? I mean does sex run her life so much that she couldnt drop the clothes off and THEN have sex on the side of the road? I dont get it. I mean, I guess people are that careless but why must this character be this way?It almost seems so far fetched UNLESS she is doing drugs. UGH! Shoot the write who wrote this scene in.

YEH BUDDY!!!!!! Malcolm and Keisha… you freaks! Wait, did he turn her around to hit it from the…..no comment.  MIRI!!!!! I want to have a violinist on my album….I mean her work is PHENOM!!! Okay, I think I have a girl crush on Miri Ben-Ari. I’ve been a fan of hers since I first heard her I Have A Dream collabo. BRILLIANT!! So no, I am not jumping on her bandwagon for the first time tonight while you all have to go and Google her. She’s the true thing!

HOLD THE FUCK UP!!!! Malcolm got sex and then played Keisha by telling her to not pretend it was more than what it was!!!!! Girl…..get him aroused again and then let him suffer.

Why is Val’s nipples always erect? lol. Is it always cold inside of her store? Aww Casey is leaving to go to L.A. and wont be dating Val…..nooooo not a good man having to leave.

I still want to fire Chistine…or is it Christina because I’ve been calling her Christina the entire entry.

Next week lVal is going on a man cleanse? Ummmmmm okay.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 #PeachtreeStreetDivas

WAIT!  April is turning 25 years old? Is that how old I am supposed to believe that all of these women are?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Lamman Rucker just walked across the window of Val’s boutique and now he is in the shop with them!!!! THAT IS MY BABY DADDY!!!  Okay, so Lamman is playing Teddy. I remember when I met him at Howard’s Homecoming a few years back when he was launching his “LammanRucker.com” website…….*sigh*that is a fine, talented man, who smells good too. Now, back to the show. So Val walked out of the store all of a minute and managed to come back with a date from Teddy that she will haev to decline because she’s going out with the girls that night? I wish a trick would!!! I’d be with Teddy.

Okay, so Keisha got them all in an exclusive club called Majesty, which happens to be a cigar club for men with six figures. I wish I could remember the actor’s name who is playing Dr. Nolan Gifford, the man who caught Keisha’s attention and is quoting Homer.

YUMMY!!! Malcolm is laid up in bed with only a blanket covering his goodies as he hesitates and finally decides against texting Keisha. Good thing, because Keisha’s phone was busy doing a google search on Dr. Nolan Gifford. SMDH! That is just sad and tacky. I mean, to the point and good to do a background check for safety purposes but not for a financial purposes. The very sad thing is that women like this actually exist.

UGH! Someone kill me! Darryl’s HORRIBLE acting during this marriage counseling session is enough to make me quit watching the entire show. Ugh that was so fake!

T.O is in the building!!! Another man who is cute from the neck down! Omar is hilarious in the club. Wait, this is Val’s boutique that is being rented out? I thought that this was a club. Soooo where are here clothes? Ummmm, wait, did Christina really just put Val in her place? And T.O is hitting on Val.  And who is Sebastian? This guy is off the damn chain!!!! So now Val has Teddy, T.O. and Sebastian wanting her number? GOOD SAVE, KEISHA! But Horrible advice. I mean, okay… yes a girl should date but she should be honest with all men. Because if you can’t be honest from the break, then you will have to continue to lie. Am I wrong in my thinking?

Yummy. That’s all that I can say when I see Lamman. I simply LOVE how he talks with his eyes!!! *heart melts* Ummm….yeh, right. Teddy is a chiropractor and he gets up and gives Val a neck adjustment while at the dinner table. And he gives her a kiss. Soooo this conversation on the phone where he has to go get his brother and niece seemed semi-genuine, but I hate how Val played him to answer a text from Sebastian. She told Sebastian to pick her up or meet her in 26 mins. Maybe I have bad eyes, but they should have put bigger font on that phone, especially if it is important to the plot. Just saying…..

And in walks T.O with flowers and earrings. Wow! Okay… but one thing about T.O….he has charm.

Okay, so Keisha sent Malcolm to voicemail and went to the opera to see Porgy and Bess with Dr. Gifford.  Ummm…okay. Why does Val bring dudes back to her house or go to theirs al of the time? Is that safe when you just met these dudes? Annnnnnnnnnnd Teddy doesnt live in the house by himself? She even invites the whole family to watch Blades of Glory with them. I have NEVER seen it. Will have to Netflix it.

WOW!!! So Keisha went to dinner with the Dr. and she became the subject of the conversation when they judged her for being a dancer in videos.  Boy does she feel out of her league. I mean, she put herself in that situation by trying to pretend that she was something that she was not. Now, I am NOT saying that people who did not attend college cannot mingle with people who have, but know your place and be able to hold an intelligent conversation on current events and you will be find. NO matter who you are, do not fake it. So, in that retrospect, I cannot feel bad for Keisha in this situation.  So much like Val and her dating situation, this is a lesson in life. Learn what you are capable of, know your limits, and work with what you have and do not become greedy.

Bwahahahahah did Teddy just tell his neice to “be good for Aunty Val”?  I’m soooo blown over that.

Iam LOVING this outfit that Keisha as on while walking with the professor, even thought I still cant get use to Lisa Raye in all of this damn color. WOW!!!! Did Dr. Gifford just check Keisha so rudely? Hmmm… but I am proud that she stood up for herself. And then she walked right past Malcolm and she didnt even see him.  And I am loving that Val is putting Teddy in his place about how he threw his family on her. I mean, they hadnt even extablished if the really liked each other before he started treating her like a fiancee.

This birthday party is so quaint and sweet. And Darryl showed up with a gift….DAMN!!!! He brought her divorce papers on her birthday. This shiesty bastard.. And then Darryl even mentioned that he wanted half of her trust fund? DAYUM!!!!!! That was shady. Ugh!

Next week look scandalous as well.  Stay Tuned….the acting isnt better but the plot is thickening.

Ummm…. Why is Val taking advice from April? And can someone please tell me why Lisa Raye’s weave looks like she walked into a Tyler Perry Film? You know how their hair does.

WOW!!! Malcolm just snuck up on Keisha and the girls after not calling her after their one night stand?Ummmmmm…. what is up with the shirt that Keisha has on? The top is cute, the undershirt is beautiful…. but together? Ummmmmm…..And this writing. I think that the acting could be better if the writing were deeper. And then he [Malcolm] had enough nerve to go back to the table with another female!!!!!!!!!! Oh she [Keisha] is bullshitting herself. Girl you know you are phased by Malcolm.

And then they mentioned www.NecoleBitchie.com ! I want them to mention my blog too!

Keisha and this whole real estate license story line is off the chain. I dont know if I believe it.

DARRIN HENSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear this man gets finer with age.  And his character is Blake, the chef……sexy.

Who is this Mac Miller, the wanna be rapper trying to run game on April? Okay, so APril works for a record company? The CD cover said… KIDS…. is it a real group?

Umm.. Christiana has a British accent and she is going to be the other member of this wonderful cast. She is the new intern who snagged a position at Val’s boutique.

I love how Chili [TLC] keeps making guest appearances. Is she a co-producer or something? Is there really a Millionaires of Atlanta dinner? Umm… how come I didnt know about it before now?

bwahahahahaha. I love how April dipped so that Blake could tell the story about how he became achef. And sexy how he walked behind Val to show her how to chop. And how short is Darrin? He seems to be two split ends taller than Stacey.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Rick FOX!!!!!!!!Get it, Rick- Fox *hand gesture from The Game* Umm… really? Did Alex, the white guy who walked over to CHili just say he knows she likes big “packages”? HAHAHAHA! They even fed into what she said on her show. Dayum Rick Fox can get it! He gets better looking with age, too! DO they make all Canadians like him? I’m going back to Ottawa. I LOVE the actor that is playing Malcolm’s father. The suave matches; like father, like son! FYI: Malcolm is my favorite actor on the show, he is the most believable.

NO VAL!!! Back up off of Blake! You just met him!!! I know it is just a kiss… but make him work for it.  Man, I LOVE Rick Fox with facial hair. Wait… did Rick Fox think that Keisha was a hoe and put $5k in the palm of her hand to meet him at his hotel? I mean damn. If that were me and my bills had to be paid. I might have to take the $10k and freak a sexy man…. lmao! Pardon my morals, but my bills need to stay paid. What? Val is about to give it up to a chef for free.

Now, remind me to shop at Val’s store so that I can get a tab! This chick just straight up played you, boo. Damn, who is the cute guy sitting on the couch in the record label’s boss’ office? He is HOT! And why do I have a feeling that April will skip her marriage counseling session just to show off Mac Miller to her boss at the record label.

Christiana taking pics of the rich chick who wouldnt pay her tab was hilarious! I need her on my team.

And this marriage counseling session is boooooooooooooooooring and fake. And then the way that the record boss skipped over her being able to A&R the project… just a shame.

Why in the world do guys know about the 90 day rules? Women,just do it and not advertise it. They are talking TOOOOOOOO DAYUM MUCH for this to be sexy! Bwahahahahahahahahaha Blake said that all a woman needs is a penis! Wait.. .did he say that it is natural for a woman to go down on a man but unmanly for a man to go down on a woman? HAHAHAHAH! He doesnt do “southern” cuisine….hahahahaha That is priceless! 

OH SHIT!!!!!  Malcolm paid Rick Fox to proposition Keisha to see if she was a hoe? WOWZERS!!! bwahahahaha Val yelled ” Somebody bring this bitch Brute” when April forgot to tell her that Blake doesnt go downtown. bwhaahahaha Okay, humor at last.

Next week! Honey!!!! Is that T.O?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Heavens!!! Cant wait!

If He Likes It, WHICH Ring Should He Put On It?

In Relationships on 14 October 2010 at 10:59 am

 

        For an entire YEAR, Beyoncé had the world over, women, kids, gays, lesbians, little people, tall people, ugly people, and I think a chimpanzee in Milan screaming from the mountain tops that “If he likes it then he needs to put a ring on it.” Needless to say, even SHE wasnt screaming that nonsense until AFTER Jay put a ring on it. Before that it was Independent Woman this & Let Me Cater to You that. It’s a set up ladies. lol The premise behind him wanting to put a ring on it and what you must do to get there are two totally different things.  I know that for a fact. Just like I know for a FACT that this blog entry is going to stir up a ton of backlash from my female readers….but so what. Maybe then you will see things from your man’s side and may actually be grateful for the stress and strain…and balls to the wall courage it took for him to finally propose.

        My philosophy on the engagement ring is sooooooooo far different from any female that you will ever hear in your life. It is my personal belief that when a man proposes he should propose with the simple band (no jewels) as a promise and symbol of a pending marriage. Upon completion of their vows, then and only then, should they exchange the heavily awaited diamond encrusted jewel piece. Why do I think this way, you ask? Simple:

1. I’m a logical human being, and in being so I think that even the song is stupid. You mean to tell me that if   he LIKES it he will put a diamond ring on it, but if he LOVES it all I get is a simple band? Stupid, right? It’s as if you put more em-PHA-sis on the engagement than you did on the marriage ceremony with the current set-up of the rings. No wonder why marriages are jacked up.

2. Since guys don’t know what they really want and/or need out of a woman that he may one day marry….there is a chance that he will buy a minimum of two (2) engagement rings between the ages of 19 and 35. This also creates drama on whether or not a man should get the ring back should the relationship not work out. But if it was a simple band we wouldn’t have this problem.

3. I am rather a narcissist, and it is my belief that I would be okay with him giving away 5 simple bands to women before me who he thought were the one, but then I would be the only one who made it to the altar to receive the ultimate prize of the diamond ring. As his new bride, I would love him for not wasting money on 5 different women purchasing 5 different diamonds ( BECAUSE YOU DONT RECYCLE A FAILED ENGAGEMENT RING)!

4. This will cut down on the woman working just for the ring and then changing once she has it. I am a strong believer that you should only buy gifts over $1 Thousand for a fiancée and over $2 Thousand for your spouse….everyone else has yet to earn that kind of spending. That is why these gold diggers want the rings to be so huge and then find out you don’t actually live like that.

 

        All of my reasons are rather selfish, really. I guess that I am not the type of girl who wears a lot of jewelry to begin with, so WHICH ring he proposes with wouldn’t really bother me, because it is more so (at least to me) about the fact that he had enough love for me to be courageous enough to ask me to spend the rest of my life with him. I know that scares the daylights out of a guy….so why add the stress of the engagement ring? Shouldnt the diamond be a surprise at the altar of what he thought to get for his new wife? Shouldnt the most expensive jewel only be given to the wife? Because if you put things into perspective….you will always be the other woman, an informal side piece, in comparison to his future wife. You do not deserve the jewel unless you both have said “I DO”.

        Trust me, I know I am causing a frenzy at Tiffany’s, Jared’s & Kay’s right now. And yes, I’ve heard it all. While at a gathering yesterday one of my guy friends called his mother while the entire table of women and men ( about 12 of us) were in the midst of this conversation. I think his mother replied with how “she would’ve already had her engagement ring chosen”. lol. Another friend at the table said that there “use to be a time when you could walk into a particular jewelry store, tell her name, and they could point out which ring she had wanted for herself.” So as not to be outdone, I called my mother all the way in Minnesota and put her on the phone. And true to form….she said that I was correct! lol.  I mentioned to my mother how at another gathering of the same caliber a female friend told me that she disagreed because “the diamond engagement ring was her dowry”.  My mother commented and said, “No, a dowry is traditionally given at the marriage ceremony to seal the contract of marriage.” Side bar: I love My Mom!!! So, I went to research.

        Dictionary.com says that a dowry is “a noun, also, dower, the money, goods, or estate that a wife brings to her husband at marriage.” Key word ladies… a WOMAN brings the dowry to the man, not a man to a woman. (Two for me, none for the others.) The initial purpose of the dowry was to help set up the bride in her new marriage so that she would not be a burden to her new husband, as well as compensate the husband for going out of his way to marry. It was more of a business deal than a love match. So, would you really want to still carry on the traditions of a business deal, or would you like to set a tradition that is met on love where when you get a diamond ring, or IF you even get a diamond ring shouldnt really matter? Because if I were a dude, I would be pretty skeptical of a woman who wouldn’t marry me because I gave her a band instead of a diamond. That would flag what kind of woman you are right then and there.

        Now, I am not judging anyone, but the actions that women extend and the pressures that they put on a man are ridiculous! I think that the victory is won at the finish line and not mid race. So I am quite okay with waiting until we get to the altar to say I Do before God to receive my ring. But again….this is just my opinion. ANd even though all of the guys that I say this to agree, even the security guards in my office building, I doubt that many women other than my mother will agree with me on this. But it is another way of looking at it. DO you want to be just another female who he gives a diamond ring to, or do you want to be the ONLY woman that he gives a diamond ring to? I choose to be the only one. But again, I did preface this entry by saying that I am far different from others. Yet, when the time comes for him to propose, I would honestly like to forgo the diamond ring for a band and his promise to one day be my husband, just to get to the altar on my wedding day and have him surprise me with a diamond wedding ring. Now THAT is a fairy tale to me.
