What are you worried about?
It’s not like this is going to be the last diamond you ever buy…
What’s your track record on other surprise gifts? Have you had to return or exchange a birthday, Christmas gifts, etc because of different tastes? Those aren’t important, this is.
I love my wife but I suck at reading her mind.
Have you two talked about getting married and about what type of ring she wants? Has she noticed or commented on a friends ring? If she has casually mentioned that she wants a 1.25-carat J, vs2, princess cut set in platinum band you’re all set. (maybe)
If you think that this is tough, wait until you start to plan the wedding. I’ve heard that this is the stuff they think of when we are thinking about fishing, sex and beer.
I proposed without having a ring and she still said yes. We got married 13 years ago and that was after being together 9 years. After that much time, I wasn’t about to take the chance on disappointing her.
One thing to consider is that if you propose without a ring, you better have done your homework. Get her to a jeweler ASAP and get something on her finger.
Good advice has been given for both options but none of it really matters. You’ve got to figure this one out.
Also, this will not impact your fishing time. Having kids will.
Best of luck.
