E-rings w/ small center stones

I received the first rude comment on the size of my diamond today.

I received the first rude comment on the size of my diamond today. Hearts on Fire (the company that made my engagement ring) shared one of my photos and one fine gentlemen decided to share his thoughtful opinion on the size of my diamond.

I love my small center stone! It's so simple and delicate.

I was just wondering if any of you have received any comments like this and how you responded. (Personally, I was tempted to point out tiny features of his own)

    Also, it's true people will criticize no matter what size, shape, color, cut it is.... especially people on the internet who don't care about anyone's feelings

    Your ring is beautiful. My favorite comment was "wow you need a real man who can afford a diamond" my ring is a pearl. Its different and much more me than any diamond.

    Don't let other people bother you! He could be jealous or something. What matters is the love you and your FS share!

    I don't think your ring is small at all! And it's gorgeous! People just can't be happy for others.... cute mug too!

    Thank you! Your ring looks so similar to mine, I love it!! I actually DIY'd the mug because an 88 cent mug and paint pen was MUCH cheaper than ordering one online

    My diamond is tiny. I picked it out and LOVE it. I just ignore anyone who says anything. I am the one wearing it, not them.

    I've gotten rude comments. I don't actually like diamonds. I love sapphires and emeralds. FH got me a sapphire ring. People have called it fake, and "costumey". Their opinions don't mean shit to me. I love it. I don't need a huge diamond to know how much he loves me.

    I think your ring is pretty. Also your reply to that guy was perfect. Smiley smile

    I think some people are jealous so they say negative things .... other people are just mean. I have an August Vintage Cushion that will give off chunky reflections of the colors around it ... one woman I know commented that it looked yellow ... that bothered me at first because I had JUST gotten engaged ... then I considered the source and realized she was just jealous and I got over it

    He couldn't even punctuate his comment properly. Remember, for someone to actually be able to insult you, you have to value THEIR opinion. EVERYONE has something to say these days and its usually rude. We can thank the anonymity of the internet for that.

    Your ring is beautiful outwardly and symbolically. What's important is what it means to you.

    I love your response to him. Very classy of you.

    I work in a doctors office and a patient made the comment "with a diamond like that, the doctors probably gave you a fat raise. Do you even need this job?" He's a very rude, outspoken man. My diamond is .8cts

    People are so rude. It is not on their finger so why does it matter? Your ring is gorgeous! Don't let negative people knock you on that.

    Personally, I think it's really cool that the company shared your photo! Boo to strangers inappropriate comments!

    Rude; but stand above it!

    People get weird about rings. In the end though his opinion is irrelevant.

    I wouldn't let that bother you. My come back would've been... better to have a small diamond then a small penis. Some people are just butt holes.

    Btw your ring is beautiful. Bigger is not always better when it comes to diamonds.
