Women that require rings to be a certain amount of money, and expect a certain amount from people at the wedding are in it for 2 things... THE DIAMONDS, THE MONEY, THE WEDDING, and then the control when they "put their foot down". IMO they are not worth marrying... they are so caught up in having the ring, and the wedding they always dreamed of since they were kids, that they lose the real meaning, a comming together with the person that you supposedly love and want to spend the rest of your life with. If my woman ever "put her foot down" about something I thought was unresasonable... it would so be over.. I don't need that control, I'm not a child. As long as I'm being faithful, not lying, and fulfilling the relationship requirements (ie: spending time with her/helping around the house) then and SO should not have any say in where I go and what I do. My girl doesent prefer that I look at other women on the net, so she let me take pics of her, so I woulnt have to.
I totally don't understand people (men or women) that let their SO control them...
Now, just to keep on topic..as far as bachleor parties go.... again.. as long as people remain faithful then great... but sex is definetly out...
