I've always thought about this and honestly, consistently do. My ex wanted a larger rock and was willing to sacrifice on the other 3 C's so I was on the hunt for a compromise. I budgeted out 10K, which seemed reasonable for what I was looking for and dropped into Tiffany's when I was in NY. Found a .92 carat VVS1 solitaire on a platinum band for 12k, out of my budget but after seeing it in person, was absolutely floored on how nice it looked.
I didnt buy it but it was the one I planned on buying.
Then we broke up after 5.5 years about 4 months later.
