How did FI figure out your ring size?

[WFPaveChampagne]

He didn''t ask me because he didn''t want me to know he was buying a ring, but he heard somewhere that it''s 3 sizes lower than the girl''s shoe size....it turned out to be true!!! Crazy, huh?

 

[cflutist]

Thats pretty close for me. Size 6.5 shoe, size 3.75 ring (was size 3.5 before I gained all this weight).

 

[AChiOAlumna]

It would be a 4 size difference for me...my shoes=10; my ring=6.

 

[mrssalvo]

i would''ve been in trouble...i wear 5 1/2 shoe and 3 1/2 ring...a could have worn the ring on my picky maybe

 

[WFPaveChampagne]

I guess I got lucky!!! LOL

 

[NyssaLynne]

Wouldn''t work for me either. Size 8 1/2 shoe and a size 7 ring. Even before I had my kids I wore a size 7 1/2 shoes and a size 6 ring. My fingers aren''t fat but they are long, even though they look fat is some of the pics I haver taken.

 

[FireGoddess]

Not quite for me...size 10 foot (sometimes 9.5) and size 7.5 finger.

I just flat out told him my ring size. He had also gotten me little rings for other occasions, so by the time he needed to buy THE ring, he knew the size already.

 

[heart prongs]

I told him, and brought it up in conversation a lot so he wouldn''t forget!!!

klr
(shoe size 8 1/2:ring size 6 3/4)

 

[WFPaveChampagne]

lol

 

[Buena Girl]

Oh, that equation is way off for me! My feet have very high arches and are consequently shorter than they should be. Shoe size: 6.5 ; Ring size: 7.5 ; That equation would give me a 3.5 ring

 

[JCJD]

Shoe size 9.5, ring size 4.5..... 5 size difference! I''d have had to wear it on my thumb with yarn tied around the underside to make it fit!!

We''d been together for over 7 years by the time we got engaged, so I made sure he knew my ring size! LOL

 

[Layne]

I left an older silver ring that I wore sometimes on one of my key ring hangers (like the place you can put the mail and keys). Later he said that was a sneaky way to leave it for him to discover but I didn''t do it on purpose! He just tried it on a marked where it fit on his finger.

Fairly close for me too but I find that different types of rings are different. I range from 5.25 to 6.

Ryan had asked me at one point for a list of things I want and all my sizes to keep things in his wallet. I included likes and dislikes and he found that helpful. But since I helped pick out the final stone (narrowed it to a few anyway) he just chose the one ofthose he liked best.

 

[tawn]

Almost...8 for my shoes, and 5.5 for my finger. However, my rings do spin....and that extra 1/2 size is so I can get it on and off of my bony knuckles!

 

[Momoftwo]

Another one that doesn''t hold true for all. My ring size is 5 and shoe is 6.5. When I got married at 21, ring size was 4.25 and shoe size was 6. That''s what years and having children do your body.

 

[valeria101]

Funny stuff ! Never heard of that rule...

It would not work for me (5 with 3).

 

[WFPaveChampagne]

Just got lucky I guess

 

[Maxine]

Wow!!! My shoes are 6.5 and ring is 6!!

 

[icekid]

hmm, it actually works for me! 6.5 shoe and 3.5 ring!

I knew I couldn''t be the ONLY one

 

[Belle Chasse]

ha ha ha, my fi''s ring size is his shoe size....lol

 

[cinnabar]

Yep, works for me too!  Shoe size 7.5 to 8, depending on make; ring size 4.5 to 5, depending on weather and time of month.

I hadn''t any idea what size I was, since I was used to British sizes.  All the conversion charts came up with different numbers, so I just went in a jeweler''s and asked them to size me.  On that day, I was a 5 so that''s what I went with.

But since I picked the stone and the setting myself anyway, it didn''t need to be a surprise.

 

[KimberJEB]

My ring and shoe size are the same. At 132 pounds they were both 8. Now at 230 they are both 10...hmmm...lol.

One of my BFs requirements in looking for a ring is that is be down-sizable...

 

[orbaya]

That''s an interesting theory. It is true for me....size 8 foot, and size 5 finger. (can wear 4.75 also).

 

[flower12]

it's intresting ...

I am 4.5 and 3.5 ..I hope my hubby don't get 1.5

 

[elepri]

Funny, doesn''t work for me, 8 shoes, 5.5 ring, but does work for him, 11 shoes, 8 ring.

 

[jaysonsmom]

It doesn''t work for me because I''m pretty tall (5''7) with little feet (size 7) and big hands, long fingers (size 5.5)!

 

[fountainfairfax]

It works for me when I wear athletic shoes- size 10 for the shoe and with my extra weight I''m a size 7 ring. and when I''m at my normal weight it would work for my dress shoes: 9.5 shoe, 6.5 ring. How funny!

 

[Stickee]

Long time lurker, first post.

Last night was quite funny. My jeweler let me take home the big ring with all the sizes attached, and when she was asleep, I tried them on. When I put the 5 on, it was so tight and hard to get off, I thought she was going to wakeup for sure.
