A Man's Guide to Buying Her the Perfect Diamond

To buy a diamond ring that will send your partner over the moon with joy is your goal, you can do it! Here is the definitive man’s guide to buying her the perfect diamond.

What is she like?

It is truly one of the wisest pieces of advice that I can give you, you have to match your engagement ring with your partner's personality. If your partner is a simple understated elegant woman, then you should buy her a ring that reflects that, such as a classic solitaire diamond. One of the hurdles that men face is that when we think of the ring buying process, that to be successful we must buy the biggest diamond and spend the most money in order to show our love. Take a step back, and really try to understand your partner, in many cases, you will find that the clue as to what kind of a diamond she will love is there before your eyes!

What is she expecting?

There is a good chance that you are up against a level of expectation when you are buying a diamond for your partner. It is not simply a comparison with her friend’s rings that bears on her mind but a whole host of other factors, which you would do well to consider. You certainly don’t want to begin a proposal by underwhelming your partner with the diamond. If you’re at the stage in your relationship where you know you want to spend the rest of your lives with each other she’s definitely going to have thought about that diamond ring, and If my experience is anything to go by, there is a good chance that she underrates your taste. And with low expectation comes opportunity. You have a brilliant chance to blow her away, and exceed her expectation with your choice. Just take your time, listen and do lots of research, she certainly won’t expect that of you...

Has she given any hints?

Yes, yes she has. And if you think that she hasn’t there is a good chance that you must listen more intently. In the build up to you buying a diamond for your lady, your ears should prick up when any discussion of jewellery arises. These are your moments; there is no better way to gauge her taste than from her own words. Take these seriously; it will help you in your mission more than you could know. No one knows her taste better than she does, and if you hope to buy her the perfect diamond you’ve got to keep your ears pricked for any hints that she drops.

Ask her mum/friend for advice

It cannot be stressed enough how important this tip is. Outside of the hints that she may have dropped herself, this is an indispensable resource for you to tap into. Her mother, sister and friends likely know a good deal about her taste and expectation. Don’t be afraid to ask them, they usually love to offer a helping hand. There is also a very good chance that they know more about diamonds than you and as much as you won’t like to admit it, they likely know more about your partner’s jewellery taste. If you’re in luck she might have even shown her a ring she would love or told her exactly what she wants when that day comes. Only a fool doesn’t use all the resources at their disposal. Don’t let your pride get in the way, ask for help.
