    Maybe he wants a band??? Or maybe a ring with some channel set diamonds in the band??

    Hmm that’s a tough 1. Maybe a 3 stone diamond ring where the 1 in the middle is slightly bigger than the other 2 or a band with lots of little stones in it like an anniversary band. When in doubt, ask his what he likes the best, then go from there.

    you may get a 3-stone ring with 1.5 total carats. Here is a link of 1 at zales: http://www.zales.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2918137&cp=2109180.2137037&cp=2109180&fbn=Carat+Range%7COver+1&f=PAD%2FCarat+Range%2FOver+1&fbc=1&categoryId=2137037&parentPage=search&searchId=27914637103

    get his a emerald cut diamond or a 3 stone ring? there are also bands with tiny diamonds along it.. ask his to demonstrate what he likes?

    Your girlfriend has no idea what he’s talking about, that’s the problem. You need to take his on an educational perusal of the jewelry shops in the mall and get his to demonstrate what he likes, because he obviously doesn’t know enough aobut diamonds to describe to you what he wants.

    Which, btw, if you had to take his description, what he’d be trying to tell you is, he’s screwing w/ you, as there is no ring that meets his description (it is impossible - he’s covered some bases - w/ the exception of his wanting 2 stones). Also, I’d wonder if he was really serious if he gave you such a genuinely messed up description.

    the best way to solve this would be to say "I have NO idea what you are talking about, because I’m a man, if you take me a picture of what you want, I’ll get you a ring - otherwise, what you’re saying doesn’t make sense to me".

    If you are getting married, you need to begin to negotiate these kinds of situations with his now. Do it nicely!

    you may always go ring-shopping together before you propose and he says yes. Seems like he has something very specific in mind that merely he may be willing and able to find.

  • IamMARE 11:03 am on November 6, 2009 |

    Maybe a cluster ring, or an eternity band?

    Sorry, those are the merely things I can think of.

    good luck!

    I know you want to get his something that he may like, but maybe you just pick out what YOU like then. If he doesn’t want a solitare or side stones, what does he want? Have you asked his to be more specific? Otherwise take his ring shopping to a jewelry store so he can demonstrate what he likes.
    good Luck!

    I see couples shopping for rings some the time. If you are really concerned about this, consider taking his for an morning to shop for it. I would rather surprise his, but there’s no law that says you have to do that. This is not a big thing, however, and there are many way to tackle it.

    you may either do the straight approach "Let’s go look at rings," or you may find some errand to do that needs his to be along, and then you go into some jewelry shops and ask his what he thinks of various items.

    Nobody’s fooling anyone, but you get a pretty good idea pretty quickly about what he really likes. There are some sorts of variations on this, such as pointing out a ring in an ad, "I think that’s way too simple for an engagement ring. What do you think?" If your ears are good, you should also get an idea of which shops he prefers, and which ones are no good..

    If you 2 are really in-love soul-mates, the engagement ring won’t matter. Even if you give his a ring he would never have chosen, he may treasure it, because YOU picked it out and gave it to his.

    Robin McGraw tells a kind story of his husband (Doctor) Phil giving his a jacket he would never have chosen — not his type at some. But he wore it because he knew it pleased him. Now he finds he likes it very much. It think it’s the best illustration of my point.

    If you give his a ring and it’s evident that you are concerned that he likes it, it may make his more sympathetic to you (showing our vulnerability is honest, genuine, and makes us more human), and consequently more likely to want to "help you out" by liking the ring.

    Oh, and genuineness, honesty and vulnerability are always good things for some sorts of places along the life journey that a wedding begins.

    Congratualtions in advance.

    Seriously - ask his to send you pictures of things he likes.
    his responses seem contradictory.

    OR work with a jeweler to choose some rings in your price range and take his to the store and tell his to pick from the ones you worked with the jeweler to select.

  • outlaq_19 11:03 am on November 6, 2009 |

    The easy way is take his shopping. Casually look at the engagement rings. he can point out the ones that he likes. The merely other thing to worry about is set a price.

    My faincee is about 1.5 carats between the engagemnet and wedding band.

    If he doesn`t wear jewelery, and probably has tiny hands, he`s not going to pull off wearing a 1.5ct diamond.
    Here`s 1, for over 7k (I would never want a ring that pricey, even if my husband could afford it!)

  • curious gal 11:03 am on November 6, 2009 |

    he doesn’t want a solatire and doesn’t want side stones and yet wants 1.5ct diamond. Hmm… that is a contraditory statement. Maybe give his a diamond pendant instead of a ring!

    But seriously… take his ring shopping. Get his to look at designs and try on some different settings so he can decide what he wants in the cut and the setting.

    Also, be cautious about the quality of diamond you purchase. A 1.5 ct stone can range from $5k - $40k depending on the cut, clarity, and color. Make sure you find 1 that is good quality yet you may afford.

  • cardgirl2 11:03 am on November 6, 2009 |

    go to bluenile.com and worldjewels.net. A solitaire diamond ring means just what it says, solitaire meaning merely 1 center diamond with a high setting (very simple) with no side diamonds…I don’t know what jewelers you spoke to, but just look on these sights and search "solitaire diamonds" and you may see dozens of rings. If you are confused, have his look on the sights with you and choose what you like and then have a jeweler make a ring up to your specifications.
