The best way to buy your partner an engagement ring she will love is to let her pick it out herself, however, most men are reluctant to take that approach because they want it to be a surprise or they want to be discreet about pricing and payment issues. If you do decide to pick out the engagement ring yourself without discussing it with your partner, make sure you consider their tastes and preferences so that you get one that she will genuinely like. Pay close attention to your partner’s jewelry likes and dislikes, with the best indication of her tastes being the type of jewelry that she wears most often. At the very least, figure out what general style of jewelry she likes. Is it classic to modern items? Think about any shopping trips the two of you have been on and if she has ever showed interest in a certain type of ring or type of jewelry.

It might help you to just pass by a jewelry store the next time you two shop together, so you can figure out what catches her eye. Give the impression that you are looking for a new watch and spend a long time looking so that she will get bored and start looking around herself. Inquire whether or not she liked anything she noticed in the store, and keep in mind what she says. In the event that you are at a total loss as to what to get, just get a diamond ring, as they are universally loved. A diamond engagement ring may sound like it will be beyond your budget but there are actually many affordable ones. As diamonds are priced according to their grade, which is based on clarity, cut, color and carat, you can choose one that is not perfect, but still looks nice, in order to find one that is within your price range.

As well as deciding on the type of engagement ring you will also have to find out what ring size to get. Try to check out one of her rings, ideally the one that is on the finger she will be wearing your engagement ring on, and see what size it is. An alternative approach is to get hold of one of her gloves or to draw around the outline of her fingers under the premise of having a bit of fun. In the event that you get an engagement ring, but something is not right about it, there is nothing to it, since you can just change it or get it resized, and there will be no harm done. Make sure you let her know after you give her the ring that you do not mind if she does not like it and wants to exchange it for another one that she likes more.
