Can I get a short message engraved on to a diamond? I assume it has to be done with a laser or programmed in to a computer and etched with a machine, but I'm really interested in putting a little message on a diamond that I am having put in a ring for my fiance as a wedding present.

Google is turning up nothing useful

Hi,

First time here. I was reading through your posts and thought I could get some none biased advice on my current situation.

I am married for almost three years now, we dated for 4 years prior to our marriage, 27 years old and no children.

Here is my little excerpt on my situation:

During the end of our first year of marriage my husband’s drinking began to be an issue in our marriage, and has progressively gotten worse. At the worst point he would get drunk and pass out at his friends house, received a DUI, he would lie about his drinking, spent two nights in jail, passed out on the floor of the house and in the bathroom, we would fight constantly and of course his addiction cost a small fortune (not including the DUI fees). We went to counseling for about six months straight and all the while he was resistant. I left for a week in October, and came back under the impression that he was going to stop drinking (at least work on it). Things, supposedly, were getting better. He has gotten “drunk” twice, started going to AA meetings, reading the AA book and is thinking about getting a mentor to help him through this process. Well tonight he told me that since I came back (in October as stated above) he has been stopping at the liquor store every day after work and any chance he could on the weekend.

My first reaction (as I have had in the past) is I have to leave, and for much longer then a week.
My dilemma is that he will be alone and depressed, and I will be the same. I just started at a great firm with many people who have their lives “together”, and may not understand if this results in a divorce. I am 27 and could be divorced by the age of 28, and who would be interested. I am religious, and the terms of divorce is pretty much accepted for adultery. He mentioned that the reason that he told me that he has been lying to me is because he is taking the first step which is being honest, but he had just drank so he was loaded.

Sorry for the length and I am sorry if anything I have written above is offensive to anyone, that was not my intension I just thought I would express my feeling on the matter, and I am also a little confused right now.

Thank you and any advice would be appreciated.

get a response as to when the item will be shipped.  I've probably done about 100 transactions and only once did I not receive the item and had to dispute it. 

I'd just keep trying and be very persistent.  Maybe you will get a response
