Engagement ring surprise...

I was never the type of girl that had my wedding ideas in advance in my head. But one thing that I was very sure of for a very long time, was the design of my wedding ring. So when the time came that my fiancee and I began to talk in this direction, I started to collect pictures. These pictures would show him exactly what I like and what not. But not for one moment I thought that collecting pictures would be my only part in this whole process! He actually gave me a deadline for pictures and then he told me that I must trust him. I'm not going to deny that it was very difficult for me at first. Because it is my ring and I am the one that should wear it for the rest of my life, so of course I want to be part of the making. One thing that I actually admire of my fiancee is that he wanted to make the ring because he wanted me to be the only the one with such a ring on my finger. I saw that I stood no chance and it was not worth a fight or anything. So I just trusted him, gave him the pictures and waited. He had the ring for almost four months before we got actually engaged and not for one moment I got suspicious. And when the moment came and I saw the ring, it didn't even matter that I was not part of the whole process because it was exactly what I wanted!! This was the result...
