This is a common question a lover boy may ask himself when he is ready to engage.
I often see this kind of questions online, people want to know what is the average spending for an engagement ring.
Online stores have made it easy to build your own engagement ring, they also offer great education and expert advices but they won't all tell you how much is too much.
Actually, no one can! Of course there is this traditional rule that says the engagement ring price should be two months of salary.
This should not be true, and some sellers will even tell you should spend three months of salary.
Would they want you to spend more ? This rule is crazy, and even stupid if you think about it.
Some people say it's how much you are willing to spend that shows your love.
Stupid again.
A millionaire could afford a very expensive ring but does that mean his love is greater than anyone with an average salary ? Of course not, and it doesn't mean the ring would look nicer.
My advice is to not follow this rule, you have to set your own budget.
You may have a small budget, you may have debts, you may plan to buy a house with your bride to be.
Even if the engagement ring is a symbol (only one) of your union, it shouldn't be a financial trouble source.
What counts : your love, not the price of the engagement ring.
Choose a ring that you like, a design and a diamond that you know she will love, and she will love it.
Just because you made a choice following your heart.
You can build your own online by choosing the perfect ring design and a beautiful diamond at an affordable price.
