With the right person, It wouldn't matter but I do love Black Diamonds and have my eye on something like this

Ladies what carat would your engagment ring have to be to make you happy?

Which is.8 plus my birthstone of Emeralds at.54.
Haven't really decided on anything yet, since not to that stage yet. Not sure I like Emeralds, might want a different one, though. I hope that some day I'll need to figure this out.

My last engagement, had a simple fairly cheap Sapphire engagement ring that was less than a $200 dollar.

Whatever he can reasonably afford so I know he really values me. Nothing too excessive even if he could afford it, I think anything above 2CT looks tacky, no matter how much it costs. My favourite is between 0,5 and 1,5CT. Also, I don't care if it's a diamond because I know it's a made up tradition and diamons really aren't worth the money asked for them.

The overall design is more important than the size if the rock on it.

Also, I'm not really fond of the classic one diamond ring design.

And I might want to have another gem than a diamond.

But overall, the size isn't as important as the actual ringdesign.

I couldn't care less. It is what the ring symbolizes that matters, not the ring itself and how flashy it is. It would mean the world to me that he picked it out himself, too.

Perhaps it's because I've never been much of a jewelry person, but I can't imagine demanding a "better" ring or being upset by the size of the diamond/price of the ring/brand/etc.

My husband could have proposed with a ring made of a straw wrapper and I would have said yes.

I honestly don't even know what mine is. Mine has 16 small diamonds. All together they maybe add up to a karat. The wedding band adds another 26 diamonds but again... maybe a karat's worth lol

And I love my set. I picked them out myself lol

England4eva · Answer

Depends on the salary of the man giving it to me. If my SO had a low salary I’d be angry and feel guilty for him going over the top and going without so I could have the biggest ring. Yet if the guy is a millionaire then no question I want something you can see from space-joking. But yes It all depends on the financial situation 100%

I love my boyfriend more than anything and a proposal might be in our future. I think one carat is probably the right size for my finger (I have long, slender fingers). I wouldn't want anything too big and "in your face" lol. But regardless, if my boyfriend asked me to marry him, I'd be ecstatic no matter what the ring looked like. Marriage isn't about the ring or the wedding. It's about getting to wake up next to him everyday for the rest of my life.

For me, 1-1.5 would be more than sufficient. I have small hands, so that would look big. It isn't just about carat weight. There are other components of a diamond that make it beautiful. Learn your C's

Lillie_xo · Answer

these are the rings i want nothing more.

AllieAnswersThings · Answer

It doesn't matter in the slightest if you love the person that gives it to you :)

Kayleighjo32 · Answer

I don't care, but id prefer some kind of blue stone instead, sapphire would be the one but id hate someone to buy me a sapphire ring cause it'd cost a fortune

dustybiker · Answer

I’m not into the ‘usual’ thing. Thankfully the people around me aren’t either. Little creativity goes a long way. Leaving the diamonds for the rest of the girls.

Lysnicolex · Answer

If a woman truly loves you, she'd be happy to accept a RingPop proposal :) Realistically, I think.5CT is the perfect size. I don't like a lot of bling, though. I feel like most women that love diamonds and would want to show the ring off 24/7 would probably be very happy with the 1-1.5CT.

fonduegirl · Answer

I'd want a locket with their and mine photos in it. "Yours" carved over the heart. And oh, please no marriage. Rejection would be hassle. Im simply not interested.

rosemilk · Answer

pidgepaladin · Answer

I don't like diamond at all, I prefer onyx or amethyst.

ShaTTeredMasterpeace · Answer

I don't want a traditional diamond and I hate big gaudy rings.

WhatTheHeckkkk · Answer

I would say yes to a paper ring if it came from someone I loved.

hsshannah96 · Answer

I’m never getting one. I’m single and always will be

Don't want a ring and i don't plan on having a wedding.

lilaccc · Answer

tbh, i don't like diamond on my ring😅, better "marriage ring" which have a simple look.

MM1480 · Answer

I don't want a diamond ring, I would rather have a ring that is personal and meaningful.

KatherineJ · Answer

I wasn’t interested in how much money he spent on my diamond, or how big it is.

Ms_Vanderquack · Answer

Why the fuck would I do with a ring?

Ninani · Answer

I'd prefer a ring without a diamond tbh.

PeachJuice · Answer

Don't see why it matters.

WowwGirl · Answer
