Yes it does, your lady will compare later with her friend and see what they got.
Generally I think some thing the range of 1 to 2 should be affordable (US$800~5000) and quite visible.
But try not to burn too much for it, because it does not really have any investment and resale value.
It just a stone for your lady to be proud about with her friend.
don't buy some thing that add up to the carat(don't small little diamond surronding the main diamond), these smaller diamond we call it "skin" is the crump cut out from a bigger diamond. No real value. |

Some women don't care. THEY ARE RARE.
MOST ALL women already have in their heads a *very* exact picture of the exact ring with the exact cut in the exact setting with the exact carat size of the exact diamond with the exact color next to the exact french manicured fingernail on the exact day while wearing the exact dress and the exact shoes under the exact hairdo in the exact place with the exact guy. IF YOU GET MY DRIFT.
And if you deliver ANYTHING BUT that EXACT ring, may god have mercy on you because you will NEVER hear the end of it.
In other words, the smartest approach is to take her shopping for - a new cute little tee shirt. When you walk by Tiffany, say "let's pop in for fun." Then you can say - "for kicks, what does your ideal wedding / engagement ring look like?"
She'll take it from there. |

Get the best you can afford. If you can only afford a small one, she'll love it anyway. She can always upgrade in the future. |

Well I guess it depends on your girlfriend. Just make sure it is a v v s . That's clarity of the diamond , vvs is a perfect diamond. You can buy a bigger diamond for less money if the quality isn't as good. This is an investment because diamonds never lose their value. That's why you want a perfect diamond. Congratulations!!! |

It does to some women. If you know her enough to want to propose, then you'll know if she's the type of woman who is materialistic enough to care about the size of the carat vs. the fact that you want to be with her forever. |

I don't think it matters as long as you like the ring and that you know she will like it too. |

Buy what you can afford only, and actually you should buy less than what you can afford. |

Everyone is right. Get what you can afford. Think of the style of ring she may like instead of the size of the diamond. I am a simple girl and my husband could afford a lot more but bought me a heart shape solitare ring. If she is that materialistic then you don't need her. It will be a disasterous financial struggle down the road. |

to most women, yes, the bigger the better....However, I would be happy with any ring, size doesnt matter...I dont think the size should matter, its the thought that counts..Good luck |

Yes, but cut, clarity and color also matter.
You probably want to go with these minimums:
Color: G-H (some color but you won't notice with the naked eye)
D,E,F are better but you will paying a lot more money
Clarity: VS1 or VS2 (some dirt in the diamond but you won't notice with the naked eye)
FL, IF,VVS1, VVS2 has less or no dirt in them, but again you won't really notice the difference and you will pay a lot more for these
Cut: you want at least VG (very good)
In short, get a diamond with
Cut: VG
Color: G
Clarity: VS1
after you achieved this minumums then get a diamond with the most carat you can afford!

good luck |

The size of the diamond is completely up to you. In the past, I would add up what I make in a three month period and look for the best quality ring in that price range. She will love it, because she knows you had to save and sacrifice to afford it. It would be best to save ahead of time and pay cash so you don't take any debt into your marriage. There will be plenty of that to come. Congratulations to you and Best Wishes to your bride to be. |

If it is a basic ring, YES! However, if you search and find a ring that fits her personality, her character, then the size of the diamond is not a big issue. Just don't get a cheap cracker jack box ring, and don't get an extravagantly expensive one that will put her in danger of robbery! |

If she truly loves you, then what size the diamond is, shouldent matter. If shes materialistic, & likes to brag, & show off , then it might? It's what YOU can afford, why put yourself in debt for a ring? Save your money for something you ( & hopefully, she) may need in the future. |
