My girls birthday is coming up and we've been together for about 5 months, and I want to buy her a diamond ring but I only want to spend no more than $350 on it. Is there anywhere I can go to get a wuality goodlooking ring for that price? Thanks.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

if you have made up your mind and you really want to buy her a ring, there are other stones that are just as nice and more affordable.
this website will offer ideas but you can check local places to see whats on sale such as friedmans jewlers

anyhow, most chicks see a diamond as a promise of forever, sometimes when you arent to that stage yet, a sapphire can just say happy birthday.

A diamond ring is for engagement, not a birthday. If you must buy jewelry, get anything but the diamond ring. If you were to take out that ring, she might throw her arms around you and shout, "I accept! We're going to be so happy together!"

Agreed diamond ring is for engagement. IMHO, pawn shops are the place to get diamond rings. DO NOT GO FOR SIZE THOUGH. chicks wilol seriosuly notice a poor color or visually included diamond. If you want to impress her, get one that has really good color quality and no visible inclusions. For 200-500$ you can get an awesome ring in a pawn shiop that would run 700-3,000 new. In my case, the ring just needed to be cleaned and retipped which cost only a 100$. For 300$ I had a phat ass ring. Obviosuly, you have the pawn shop put it in a case from a retailer. Never admit you pawn shopped that ring 
Near my house there is a lot of homeless guys that sell gold stuff, but I'm not sure if it's
good quality or not.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

I 100% agree. WTF are you buying her expensive **** like diamond rings for? Seriously, you've only been going out with her for 5 months. Do you think that she's going to spend 350 ****ing dollars on your birthday?KillaPetehog said:
Take her out. Make it fun, unforgettable and unique. And it doesn't have to be that expensive either. Go ice skating at a rink, or to the country or anything but buying her a diamond ring. Get her something that means something to her, something relating to her interests. And if her interests involve diamond rings then I'd say you're pretty ****ed.
If I was her, I'd think you were kinda strange. At least save that for the 1st year anniversary, if you get that far.
I'm not trying to insult you here, but it sounds like a really bad idea.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
