I am not a jewelery girl... but being engaged once let me tell you this...

I assured him to go cheap, nothing fancy... I am not flashy like that. After a few years we parted ways and I confessed that deep down I was disappointed. I wished to have something I could hold out and say look how much my man loves me. Huge cubic zirconia would have done the trick (haha). I dont think you have to go over the top, but dont be too chincy. This is your way of showing she is worth sacraficing something for.

And size does matter!!! oh... different forum

Then you basically lied to him because that's not what you wanted.

I want 5 carats, and PLATINUM and make it snappy!


Ya right, like I want a house on my finger. I don't neeeeed a diamond, Tanzanite is my favourite stone. But I don't like hearts or gold, so yes the cut and setting are important to me.

I'm glad he didn't buy you anything better. You parted ways shortly after, so obviously you were not worth "sacrificing something for". If he had bought you a million-dollar diamond you would still have split apart, so what would the point be? Nonetheless, you wanted the big ring as a trophy anyway.

If you are so worried about size, why don't you ask her if it's big enough? LOL.

Keep in mind you also have diffrent qualities as well as size in carots. You can get a large diamond, but a smaller diamond of better quality costs more. So size does not necessarily matter!

Perhaps being a newbie I missed something - his profile says single, looking for a long term relationship, unsure about children.

....but then again it said he was looking at wedding rings, not necessarily for himself I suppose.

Can someone clue me in (if that is possible LOL)

Thanks

I don't believe it's the size, it's the quality (there are alphabetical ratings). Go for one that really sparkles. So in my opinion it's not so much the size (but you don't want a teeny tiny one), but the quality (how much you can make her squeal with pleasure!!!).

How can she pick it out. The engagement ring is supposed to be a surprise. Isn't it?

laverboy & triple: Yep, girls can pick out their own. I actually wanted to pick out my own ring, otherwise my ex would have gotten something way too big that I would have hated. Of course the surprise factor is always nice, too. Personal preference, I guess.

Anyone want to buy a diamond ring really cheap?? LOL j/k

I am getting engaged... and me and my boyfriend have talked about this. I have a dream ring and we are deciding if it would be that or a vintage ring. My dream ring is about $10,000 and does have a princess cut diamond in the center and two baquettes on either side and is platinum. I know though... that the bigger a solitaire is the more it gets hung up on things... and there is a good possiblity that it could get lost... YIKES!!! Thats a scary thought when you think you could be wearing upwards of $5000 on your finger.
Have you thought about going to the stores with her to 'browse'? She could point out her interests to you then you could get a better idea...

I think it boils down to personal preference.

Congrats!!!

it really doesn't matter what size the ring is if she truly loves you. when i asked my wife to marry me, i gave her a 1/4 carrot ring from walmart and she cried her eyes out. the size didn't matter to her. she was too busy being shocked about me asking her to marry me. if a woman got mad at me because of the size of the diamond, i'd be wondering if i really wanted to be with this woman.

I'm down on one knee with a box in my hand, "Honey, will you marry me?" She takes the box in crazed anticipation and opens it up. It's empty.

What am I supposed to say?

"Honey, we can choose it together?"

Not the way I always saw that moment.
