\"Cubic<\/a><\/p>\n

So you\u2019ve found the love of your life, and you\u2019re ready to spend the rest of your life together with this person, huh? You\u2019ve known for a while now that this person was the one. You may even not be sure when exactly it happened, but at some point in your relationship it became abundantly clear that there\u2019s just something about this person, something that makes your one and only your special someone.<\/p>\n

And when you find someone that special you want to make sure the two of you spend the rest of your lives together. That means it\u2019s time to propose \u2013 even if that means reversing roles and asking your man to marry you!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s true \u2013 instead of waiting to be proposed to, some ladies are taking matters into their own hands in 2015 and asking the man of their dreams for his hand in marriage. Yes, the overwhelming majority of man and woman couples still do things the traditional way, with the man bending his knee and asking the girl of his dreams to spend the rest of her life with him. But many couples are thinking a little outside the box these days. And why shouldn\u2019t they?<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019re going to try flipping things around on your man, you\u2019re not going to want to show up empty-handed. What? As much as you love your man you wouldn\u2019t want him to ask for your hand without sliding a ring on your finger, would you? Of course you wouldn\u2019t. Well, then you shouldn\u2019t ask him to marry you without doing the same. And just as he would have to carefully consider what type of engagement ring to buy you, you\u2019re going to have to think hard about what type of engagement ring would be right for him.<\/p>\n

The good news is that you\u2019ve probably already forgotten more about jewelry than he\u2019ll ever learn. Better still, you\u2019ve got Birkat Elyon to help you out with picking the right male engagement ring.<\/p>\n

Pick Your Budget<\/strong><\/p>\n

Engagement rings, whether for men or women, can vary quite a bit in price levels. It\u2019s possible to find the \u201cperfect\u201d one for just a few hundred bucks if you\u2019re happy with a simpler design. Of course, you also have the option to get him a diamond ring that will cost several orders of magnitude more. The same goes for rings with other precious gems, like sapphires or rubies, set in them.<\/p>\n

So how do you handle the pricing issue? Start by setting your budget before<\/em> you go shopping. I know this can be difficult, but your best bet really is to pick a range up front and not allow yourself to deviate from it.<\/p>\n

What should that budget be, exactly? Well, that\u2019s something that\u2019s entirely up to you. We\u2019re all familiar with the old \u201cthree months\u2019 salary\u201d line that men are \u201csupposed to\u201d follow. But that\u2019s simply not practical for everyone, man or woman. Think about a price that shows you really care without jeopardizing your ability to, you know, care for each other. A beautiful engagement ring is great, but so is paying the rent\/mortgage on time.<\/p>\n

Think About His Tastes and Style<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now that you know how much money you\u2019re going to spend, what should you spend it on? There is such a multitude of rings and styles available on the market that it\u2019s easy to become overwhelmed with all of the options at your fingertips. Narrow down the field by thinking about your man. After all, you know him better than anyone else, right?<\/p>\n

Does he tend to dress formally in suits and ties, casual in dress shirts and khakis or completely relaxed in tee shirts and jeans? A flashy, precious gemstone might work great for a formal man who takes pride in his style\u2026but maybe not so much for the man who prefers wearing a hoodie with his favorite football team\u2019s logo on it.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just what he wears that matters, either. What does he do? If he works a blue collar kind of job and uses his hands and\/or plays a lot of sports and lives an active lifestyle, then a simple ring is probably your best bet to prevent the setting\/embellishment from getting caught up in clothing or equipment.<\/p>\n

Choose What\u2019s Best for Him<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every guy\u2019s perfect ring is different from every other guy\u2019s. Many men wear engagement rings these days, but they don\u2019t all wear the same<\/em> ring. Choose something that shows your love and commitment for him, something that takes into consideration who he is and what he likes. After all, that\u2019s what you\u2019d expect him to think about when buying you a diamond or cubic zirconia engagement ring<\/a>, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
