The world’s biggest mysteries simply can’t compare to the one that plagues every man who wants to propose to his sweetheart: discovering her diamond engagement ring size. Suddenly, you’re expected to know a ring size that has probably never come up in conversation before. And it’s not like you can go ahead and ask her what her ring size is – unless, of course, you want to spoil the proposal.
Fellas, don’t sweat the small stuff. We have the ultimate tips and techniques on how to discover her diamond engagement ring size without raising her suspicions.
Look at the Jewelry She Already Has
Like a master thief about to steal the crown jewels, this step involves swiping her favorite ring. As her partner, you probably have a pretty good idea as to what rings she wears the most, and which fingers she usually wears them. If you haven’t paid attention, start doing so now – this information will come in handy down the line.
Once you’ve identified a ring that she wears often (ideally, she’ll be wearing it on her middle fingers or her right ring finger), take it when she isn’t looking and head immediately to your local jewelers. He or she will be able to tell you what the ring size is. Bonus benefit: if she wears the ring on any other finger, your jeweler should still be able to give you a pretty accurate idea of what her ring size will be.
Do Some Online Research
If you don’t have time to head to the local jewelers – or you just don’t want her to get suspicious – not to worry. When she’s in the shower or out running errands, grab a strip of paper, place it along the inside of her favorite ring, and mark down where the paper meets. Once you have this information, you’re ready to conduct some online research.
Google “ring size chart” to find accurate scales of ring sizes. Hold up the paper to your computer screen and see where the mark hits. That should be a very accurate estimation of what her ring size is, so you can start shopping with confidence.
With these tips and techniques by your side, you’ll be able to find out her diamond engagement ring size without her catching on!
