Economist asked:


My girlfriend’s ring size is 11.5 and I am planning to get her an engagement ring. How big of a diamond would look proportional on her finger? My budget is tight (max around $3.5K)
Thanks a lot!

We’ve dated for 5 1/2 years now, and we both know that i’m about to pop the big question. The only problem is, I’ve recently come on to some hard times financially. If I bought a cubic zirconia ring (WAY CHEAPER! JUST AS SHINEY!) do you think she would find out? get angry?

cdwg_patrone asked:


I’m getting my girlfriend a set of diamond earrings for Christmas. I know clarity and color are important when it comes to engagement rings, but is the same true for a set of diamond earrings? What is the average color and clarity of a diamond earring? Thanks!

The Hitman asked:


I was subtely asking my girlfriend what type of diamonds she likes on engagement rings and she said either round or emerald cut. I wish she had just said one or the other.

Between the two, which do you like better or looks nicer? Round or Emerald cut?

Daniel B asked:


I have my ex-wife’s engagement ring that I gave her. I would like to propose to my current girlfriend, but would never dream of giving her the old engagement ring. Is there anywhere online where men can trade engagement rings of similar value? There must be someone out there in a similar situation with whom I could just trade rings, rather than go to a jewelry store and not receive top dollar for it. It’s a 1 carat emerald cut diamond engagement ring. I thought for sure there would be a market for this online, but haven’t located anything like what I am proposing.

Anthony asked:


Ok so i’m completely lost. I really want to ask my girlfriend to marry me but I dont have a ring. I was about to buy a diamond ring but after watching the movie blood diamond i changed my mind. i personally think diamonds are too expensive and too much blood is being shed because of them. Will my girlfriend be dissapointed if she does not get a diamond? any advice? thanks

Ant asked:


I respect tradition but do not feel it’s necessary to get a huge, expensive diamond ring to show my affection. Especially with the controversy diamonds have had surrounding them (blood diamonds). And although blood diamonds are not as circulated, the idea of valuing a rock so highly doesn’t settle right with me. Soo, I want to get my girlfriend a ring with diamonds in respect of tradition but instead of the big diamond center stone, make it a turquoise stone. Why turquoise? Because it is a symbol of prosperity which ties in well in the idea of marriage. Also because it has a high cultural significance to me (as an American Indian Dine), and its healing properties, especially when given as a gift. Sooo, Ladies my longer question to you is if you would accept a ring as I’ve described in place of a huge diamond if it had special meaning. Would you still be proud of it?
