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.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Diamond Ring

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

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.
