Hi everyone 
This is my first post on PS, but I''ve been lurking and learning for a few days. I want to propose to my GF this summer but want it to be a total surprise. I see SO many posts here about going ring shopping together and where the girl knows all about the ring. I don''t want my GF to have a clue that I''m shopping, searching, and thinking about proposing. Of course that leads me to wondering and doubting, LOL!
Quick background: I''m a female, divorced last year, realized that I''m a lesbian late in life. I have the best GF ever. I want to surprise her, and it WILL be a surprise because she is not expecting this. I''m a bit of a commitment phobe. Not that I''m afraid to commit myself to her for life-- I already have and she knows it, but I''ve been afraid to move in together with her and have put that off several times (there are many factors, selling my house, moving my kids, the ex-H, etc).
Anyway, how do I find out what kind of jewelry she likes without being too obvious? She''s not too girly, so a traditional e-ring won''t be right. She has told me she doesn''t like any kind of setting where things stick up and doesn''t want things getting stuck in it. I was thinking of getting her the Tiffany Etoile band or the WF scattered diamond replica. But is that "enough" to propose with? I can''t seem to post the pic, I need to figure this newbie stuff out
I managed to figure out her size, so at least I''m one step closer. She''s probably totally on to me. Yeah, cuz most people have a ring sizer in their bedside drawer-- that isn''t totally obvious, right? Ha!
Anyway, hi! I hope to come up with cute proposal ideas and run them past you soon. I want to do it in San Francisco in June-- we are going there for Gay Pride weekend. Thinking "beach" somehow.
xoxo
