What is too small? That he could easily have afforded a nicer diamond or that it was small because it was all he could afford. If he was just cheap and bought you a small diamond but is spending tons of money on himself and his toys, I'd say you have a selfish guy on your hands who will always be thinking of himself and not you. There are some guidelines published regarding his income and how much he should spend. Check them out. If it's small because that's what he can afford, then appreciate it with all your heart or find a richer man if you can't.

Scream & cry & have a temper tantrum like he had never ever seen before, then I would tell him he better hightail it to the jeweler's and come back with the biggest diamond he could find, if not he better just scoot on down the road. Only kidding , actually I have a small diamond that I'm very proud of, it is very beautiful, have a great day.

I personally do NOT like large diamonds...too much responsibility because I would be bound to lose it. The ring I wear (from significant other) has 4 small rubies and 3 small diamonds. I lost it for 6 months when I was mad at him and put it somewhere but forgot where it was. Then surprise I found it while dusting the top of my buffet...yes I am a great housekeeper lol.

What is a "too small" diamond? Hmmm, there are two things that come to my mind here; 1) so, all you care about is the size of the diamond and not the guy? 2) why didn't he take you shopping for the ring?
The important question here is...DO YOU LOVE HIM?

It's not the size of the ring that even matters!!! It's about the person you love, it's the fact that he has chosen to spend the rest of his life with you (unless of course there's a divorce, which isn't uncommon)...but if I was sure this was the one then I would be excited no matter what size it was --I know how expensive diamonds are....so even a small one cost some money you know...
if a girl really cares about the size that much--she's probably a gold digger anyway.

I would rather have a small diamond ring than a Man with a small heart & mind. If that is all he could afford right now, that would be just fine with me. A ring, no matter what kind of stone is in it, is just a symbolic gesture of a committment for a future together.
I rather he/we invest the money in Real Estate and a well rounded Finanical portfolio. Money that grows, not depreciates.
Rings can always be up-graded!

I wouldn't even want a diamond ring actually. I hate wearing rings... I'm thinking a nice tattoo of a ring would do fine. But if that doesn't happen, I'd actually be happy with silver and glass... Or cubic zirconium... diamonds are highly overrated.

If the diamond is the only thing you can think about, honey you don't need to be getting married. What you need is to get off your spoiled but get a job and by your own diamond. Since he couldn't do if for you, after all its not like he loves you, that doesn't count for anything. Lady get a grip. If your a gold digger just say so!

I love my boyfriend and if he proposed to me...he could do so with a diamond ring of any size. Hell, he could slap a cereal box decoder ring on my finger. It's the guy I want to marry not a shiny geometric rock.

My husband didn't propose with ANY diamond, and I wasn't upset about it at all. If you're going to be this shallow about a piece of jewelry, maybe you need to rethink marriage. Your marriage is based (or should be) on love and compatibility...not the size of your engagement ring.
We talked about it, and decided that we would rather use the money he would have spent on my engagement ring towards the downpayment on our first house. We've been married almost three years now, and still going strong.
