the boy buys it an suprises u by askin ya when ur not expecting it!!!!
i know what engagement ring that i want.;;
princess cut platinum tiffany engagement ring.
but i do knwo that i will probably never receive it considering men are reluctant to buy anything let alone a 65,000 ring for a girl.
the guy buys it as a surprise but its only fair us women give them hints on what we want
some guys buys it as a surprise but there’s others who prefer to let their girl choose the engagement ring. maybe guys are scared that the gals might not like the ring choosen by them. gals have better taste u see=p
traditionally, guys bought the ring but in this day and age, girls often pick it out. My personal opinion is, I think its nicer when its a suprise. Its sweet of the guy to spend time picking it out but really, it depends on the couple. I have also heard of many guys who are terrified of the idea of picking out something that his girl will have to wear forever. Thats a LOT of pressure!!
It depends on the couple. In my case, my husband asked me to go ring shopping with him to help him decide. He ended up picking out a ring that I simply adored so it worked out great.
well its different for different people.
I am just lucky that i have a very observant fiance who bought me the exact same ring i wanted, with out me actually telling him??? I often look at jewelry, especially engagements rings (we have been together over 9 years, so i would purposely look at them just to give him a hint and basically to annoy him, nice of me i know hehehe!!) and it just so happened i was really in love with this one ring i was looking at. I pointed it out to him and he just brushed me off as usual… Then 3 weeks later ended up on my finger along with a lovely proposal of marriage from my gorgeous boyfriend/FIANCE!!!
So if a guy is going to surprise a girl with a proposal, he might buy one on his own and then give it to her. Or it could be that he proposes without a ring and then the couple both go and choose one together (mainly the girl).
it all depends ont eh couple. My friend’s fiance picked her and surprised her. My fiance brought me to the store to choose my own. Its about whatever the two of you are comfortable doing.
ive done both….i think its better when we (as guys) pick it out…it hads more of a surpirse…
Yes, it is suppose to be the guy. He surprises her with the most beautiful ring of all time and they live happily ever after. ha ha……..if that was only how it really goes.
it can happen either way – sometimes the couple goes shopping together, or the man gets it as a surprise
It can go either way. My fiance wanted me to choose what I liked, so we chose the design, and then he purchased the ring and surprised me with it about a month later.
Well the ones I have picked out my boyfriend said no way…not because of the price but because he wants it something from his heart he picked out….(still no ring) but I gave him the ideas of what I like and he will have to take it from there.
It totally depends on the couple. It was no secret the my FI and I were going to get engaged at some point. We ended up shopping for rings together, but that was a surprise! We were on a trip to NYC and when we walked past Tiffany’s. He suggested we stop in and take a look at rings. It was really fun and kind or romantic! Later he proposed with a ring very similar to one we both liked.
it’s traditional to be surprised with the ring most people pick there own now thou,
my fiancee surprised me with mine and it was lovely i prefered it that way it’s more romantic lol
I picked out every ring I got.
me and most of my friends all picked out our own – in a way. i didn’t pick out the EXACT ring, but my hubby and i went shopping together and i showed him ones that i liked, so that when he went to buy it himself he knew what style i liked.
depends on the couple. my husband got mone on his own though he does know what kind of ring I like. I dont like the idea of picking it out together. takes the whole surprise out of it. and I trusted my husband knew what I would like and he proved he did becuase he got me exactly the ring I was looking for.
It’s MUCH more special when the man buys the woman a ring!
It depends on the couple. My H2B had no idea what I wanted and asked if I would help him…so I did. Some men would rather surprise their girlfriend with a ring the chose themself. It really just depends on the couple. Doesn’t matter either way.
I think it’s really romantic if the guy has the ring already bought, however I’d have been heartbroken if my fiance had proposed with one. It will be on your finger for life so it HAS to be right. When I got engaged, we spent a lovely day picking out my engagement ring, and I must say it took ages for me to choose ‘the one’. Like I said, it’s yours for life, and I really wouldn’t want anyone making such a big desicion for me.
guys by it
All depends. My boyfriend proposed and then we went shopping for an engagement ring. Some guys like to have the ring wen they propose. If you think he might be proposing sumtime soon just drop little hints about, also tell his friends and family as well as your own the style u like. That way it can ultimately be a surprise…. and a good one.
I’m in this situation at the moment myself. I have been with my partner for 7 years and we have been discussing engagement for a few months now.
I am not a jewellery fan in general and there are very few styles I have seen that I like. My partner and I have been shopping to look at styles and we have looked online and he has said that now he has some ideas leave it to him…!
This I am quite excited (but apprehensive) about. I have just seen in his favourites that he has saved a page with a ring on it, but I really don’t like it?! I am scared that I will get that one.
I know I sound really ungrateful but I have to wear it for the rest of my life so surely the girl should have a say too?
What should I do?
