While love doesn't come with a price tag, it does come with a cost.

The "price" of love isn’t paid in money; it’s paid in currency that matters much more:

Vulnerability: Opening yourself up to someone means risking rejection, disappointment, and heartbreak. You hand someone else the power to hurt you, trusting they won't use it.

Time and Attention: Love requires presence. It costs the hours you could spend entirely on yourself, choosing instead to invest in someone else's life, listen to their worries, and share in their experiences.

Compromise and Ego: True love asks you to set down your pride, negotiate differences, and sometimes put another person's needs or comfort on equal footing with your own.

Patience: It costs the effort it takes to forgive mistakes, navigate seasons of change, and stay steady when things get difficult.

In short, the price of love is the willingness to risk loss for the sake of connection. It is steep, but it's also why it holds so much value.

Fuck rings. If making it work long term with someone doesn't make you want to declare yourself as the king of luck, you need a different boy or girl, not a different ring.  ㅤ

Depends how much love you will buy and in what shape. One whole piece or subscription package? I'm kidding.

I wouldn't want that. That would be ridiculous. Love shouldn't be about material things.

Love that is measured in dollar signs is called "prostitution."

My wife married me when I was living in an 80 year old house that is only 900 sq. ft. She married me because of love and devotion, not because of my income. (Her devotion was rewarded because my gross income last year was $1M.)

Love is PRICELESS. But love is also rare. If a partner really loves you they will be willing to live with you in a cardboard box, wear a tuna can ring around their finger as a wedding band. And eat beans and rice every day. As long as it is with you.

But LOVE is also very rare. You'll be lucky if you ever meet one or two people in your life CAPABLE of that kind of commitment.

no offense to anyone, lol... but I would never marry someone who sees that... and think it's a good idea to wear, or to have... lol

No, even if he could afford it I wouldn't want it. It just looks terrible on your hand and isn't practical at all. Would never wear it.

A rock on a band of metal proves you have money. That ain't it. If a person wants to do that... fine... but that ain't it.

LazerBean · Answer

That is ridiculous. You could not even realistically wear something like that

That looks very big for 10cts as a jewellery dealer

Poor ones who date other poor ones always claim that it does not matter to them. Once / If they become rich, it will be a totally different ballgame!!!
