I've been dying to get this unpopular opinion off my chest ever since I joined WeddingBee a few years ago, where they act like a round solitaire ring on a plain band is the end all be all of engagement rings.
They have a lot of threads asking members to post their engagement rings and almost 50% of the submissions are from women with pretty much the exact same thing with just a variation in carat size. Even the bands tend to just be platinum. No personality whatsoever. The other 50% are split amongst the other stones, halos, etc.
I understand wanting a timeless look, but at this point I genuinely feel like a round solitaire is so overdone that it's the equivalent to buying a picture frame and leaving the stock photo inside.
I am so freaking sick and tired of those rings.
What's your engagement ring unpopular opinion?
