A girl can have more than one BFF! For starters, pearls come in different natural shapes, and sapphires are found in a rainbow of colors. All kidding aside, it’s never about the jewelry. It’s about all the emotions behind it and the story around it. If all a girl cares about is a “big fatty diamond,” that rock carries no more meaning than a lump of coal, and she wouldn’t really treasure it anyway. Good riddance, I say!

Dear Angel,

I didn’t mean to imply that all women are shallow, like diamonds or are materialistic. My experience has been quite the opposite, which is why it surprised me that it would be such a theme that day. I see five-digit weddings the same way as diamonds; I want someone who’d be more interested in putting a down-payment on a house than spending that much money on a party. Weddings don’t have to be expensive to be beautiful, and it’s not the cost of the ring that defines the love.

On the other hand, if I had a million dollars? Let’s party.

The trombone effect is gonna get played TO DEATH! tyvm

Oh, and Mister Wizard? I’ll bring my scary face and meet you at the hive.

Another good way to scare bees away is to yell, “BOOBIES!!!” Get it?

Diamonds definitely aren’t my BFF. Considering the violence caused in gathering them, I’ll pass.

But this post should carry the disclaimer that not all PDX women are on the look-out for a guy to give her material things. That said, if that’s what they want, at least they’re upfront about it.

Now, if we can talk about the wishy-washiness of PDX men…
