I'm no expert on the subject, but I'd like to think that if you choose what you think they will like, they will love it because of the jesture and will cherish it knowing that you personally chose it and the reason you chose it was because you want to spend the rest of your life with them.
No harm in getting a second opinion from a close friend/reletive etc though  | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:23:57 PM | lol it's karats not carrots..sometimes seen as carats too haha
If you're putting an actual carrot on a ring I'd suggest a baby carrot as they're not so big and won't poke her in the eye. | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:27:07 PM | | pawn shops have nice rings cheap. as far as size, that choice is up to you and what you can afford and of course what you know she wants. | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:36:27 PM | oh god DON'T get a ring from a pawn shop. It's there for a reason..it wasn't wanted and will have bad vibes attached to it.
Get a new one. You can find really nice ones for under $1000. | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:38:17 PM | Yes!! Size does matter!!
Oops, you are talking about diamonds, aren't you? Thread title threw me off there. hehe
Get her the best ring you can afford, without hurting your budget. Be sure it's to her liking, though. Sometimes less expensive rings are prettier than big gawdy ones and she'll be happier if she approves of it. For example, I hate marquis cuts, so would be unhappy to get one.
Also, be sure a ring is important to her, if she'd rather have a simple ring and put the rest of the money towards furniture or a trip or something else, do that. Not everyone wants a huge rock on their finger (well, I do, but that's me LOL). | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:42:22 PM | | My father owned a jewelry store. You have to look at how big or petite a woman's hands are, small petite woman do not look good hauling around a huge gawdy ring. Does she wear showy jewelry with lots of stones or does she like solitaire one stone types of jewelry. The bigger the diamond does not necessarily mean it is the best quality, or cut. Buy what you can afford !!! This 3 paycheck minimum is bull. Peoples, and Appelts, Ben Moss are all good places to look. And remember after all it is the thought that counts!! Mine was a 1/4 solitaire with a real unique setting. Or get one designed if you have something in mind. good Luck | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 12:42:31 PM | Hahaha! And I bet alot of fools were thinking that he was talking about the size of a mans natural.....endowments. Get your minds out of the gutter!  | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 1:02:42 PM | | I loved the ring my ex hbby had given me. It was about a 1/4 karat, but it was an antique ring. Loved it! It's not the size of the diamond, but the thought and style behind it. There are lots of girls who would love an antique ring, and the solitaire doesn't always have to be a diamond. My sister's ring is a saphire....it's absolutely gorgeous. | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 1:28:18 PM | Frankly I'm of the opinion that any woman who's not happy with whatever ring you give her is a woman you should run from!!!
I mean really- her commitment to you is based how much money you blew on her?!!!
Any woman actually WORTH marrying would appreciate ANY ring you got for her as the gesture it is... not an absolute requirement with a specific price tag attached...
And think a minute about what your married life will be like with her if everything is measured in terms of "what does HE do for ME?"
Women are ofetn brought up and taught by society to think this way, and most men are taught to worship women and respond to their every whim, but it shouldn't be this way... | |

| Does size matter ? Posted: 11/29/2005 1:35:59 PM | Get her what you can afford...if it's not good enuff ...then she's not good enuff | |
