DH proposed to me when he was visiting me in Texas. He gave me a simple ring with a sapphire because I won't wear diamonds. I was still living there for uni then, but we knew we were better together than apart. He stayed for three months and before he left I bought him a ring, it was black titanium and white gold, pretty sharp. I proposed and everything, right in the airport before he left. I know that sounds a little silly, and even though we were already engaged it was HARD to do.

Anyway, now neither of us wears our engagement rings, mainly because they're a symbol of us having to be apart. I like the simplicity of my little gold wedding band.
