She bought her own engagement ring-and she's not engaged.
Natalie is a lot like you, she's pinned pages of rings on Pinterest, and would waist hours looking through the pages.
The best quote from this story from The New York Post, "One thing I’ve drilled into him (her boyfriend) over the years is how important it is for me to choose my own engagement ring.
The thought of someone else picking what should be a woman’s most treasured piece of jewelry is something I cannot fathom."
I think she's absolutely right! Sure surprises are great, but if a women tells you something like that point blank, listen. Plus her boyfriend agrees that it takes the pressure off.
