Let me just say that I am obsessed with my ring. One of the smaller diamonds fell out about a three weeks ago, so I brought it back to the jeweler. She gave me this big speech on how you shouldn't wear your diamonds to bed because of the sheets (?????), also how I should never wear the diamond when I am at school because of gloves, also, I shouldn't wear the ring when I am running or working out, cleaning,... etc... OH! And... I should never put my hands in my pockets or put mittens on... Okay... So I said to her... "So,... Basically... I can never wear my ring... ?" And she said, "Well, most jewelers don't tell you that so that you have to come back to them and they get to charge you more to replace a diamond that you lost.." I don't know... This sounds pretty ridiculous to me, and I have never heard of anyone saying that you can't wear your ring to bed because of the sheets... Anyways, she had to add 52 new prongs around each diamond, and she said that it was 500 dollars worth of repairs because I was "too rough" on the ring. Then she also told me that this time she would fix it, but next time she would have to charge me... hmmm... I don't know....
