Tips for Men When Buying Engagement Ring for Her
You are taking your relationship to the next level- congratulations! Things may become overwhelming and it is very understandable. Purchasing an engagement ring for your loved one is a crucial investment you can make before you get into your marriage. So, ensure that you have all the bases covered.
Chances are that the love of your life has been dreaming about this piece of jewelry for as long as she can remember. So, whether you are planning on the engagement ring as a surprise or you are buying it together, this guide will help you get what works for both of you.
Look for an engraved ring
A personal touch to any gift will significantly enhance the emotional value of the gift. A lot of people prefer to engrave their promise on the ring. A simple ‘I love you’ works well. Always remember, the more you personalize the ring, the better.
Customize the ring
Choosing an engagement ring from Moissanite is considered a lifetime commitment, and you can ensure that it stays special throughout. You may be confused because you like the design of a particular ring but you want a different gemstone or the current metal does not fit well with the gem and you want to change it. With customization, you will be able to choose any design that you like and replace it with any gemstone, or metal or even add an engraving to it.
Decide on the stone
Gone are the days when a diamond was considered to be the only choice for an engagement ring. Today, a lot of people prefer choosing colored gemstones like emerald, sapphire, or ruby. A particular color may have a significant emotional value to your loved one. In this case, you will have to go for her favorite color because the end game is that you make it extra special for both of you.
Look out for her ring size
Imagine getting everything right, and the time has come, you are on your knees with the ring in your hand. You ask your big question, and she responds and as soon as you try to put the ring on her hand, it does not go through. This can be a bit of a damper. Ring size is always an important point to consider as no one wants to get it wrong. You can try getting the ring size without her knowing.
Understand her preference
This is also another very crucial point to consider. Since everyone has their unique design options, and with so many shops out there, you may get confused about where to start and what to pay attention to. This is the point where you have to seek her help, not necessarily direct, but by noting down her jewelry preference. Pay attention to the kind of jewelry that she wears, is it modern or vintage? Her choice of fashion should also give you a hint.
Conclusion
Give yourself a couple of days to think about the kind of engagement ring that will suit your woman. Then after making your choice, the above tips will help you come up with a good gem from Moissanite that she will treasure for a long time.

A hotline number, 0800 123 5264, for Nigerians to report any MRS Oil Nigeria Plc filling stations selling Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol, above the approved pump price of N739 per litre, has been released by Dangote Petroleum Refinery.
The private refiner said the number was now active nationwide, enabling consumers to promptly report violations and help maintain fair pricing across over 2,000 MRS stations.
This measure follows the refinery’s recent commencement of nationwide PMS sales at N739 per litre—a strategic intervention aimed at stabilising fuel prices and easing the financial burden on Nigerians during the festive season.
“We encourage Nigerians to avoid purchasing PMS at inflated prices when locally refined fuel is available at N739 per litre.
“Report any MRS station selling above this price by calling our hotline. Together, we can ensure that the benefits of this price reduction reach every consumer,” the company stated in a statement.
The organisation stressed its mission to deliver affordable, high-quality fuel while safeguarding national economic interests, reaffirming its commitment to steady supply, backed by a guaranteed daily output of 50 million litres, and warned against attempts to create artificial scarcity or manipulate supply.
Regulatory authorities have been urged to remain vigilant and take decisive action against unpatriotic practices.
By refining locally at scale, Dangote Refinery is reducing Nigeria’s dependence on imports, conserving foreign exchange, stabilising the Naira, and strengthening energy security. This initiative represents a significant milestone in the country’s journey toward sustainable energy solutions and economic recovery.
The refinery also issued a stern warning against attempts by unscrupulous operators to create artificial scarcity in response to the price reduction, calling on government agencies to act decisively.
“Any attempt to create artificial scarcity or manipulate supply to frustrate recent price reductions is unpatriotic and unacceptable. We urge regulatory authorities to remain vigilant and take firm action against such practices, especially during this critical festive period,” the statement added.
Consumers were advised to resist purchasing fuel at inflated prices when cheaper, high-quality alternatives are readily available.

At the end-of-the-year party attended by stakeholders, including the leader of the association’s chapter, Mr Charles Onyema, said the customs officer has done well in stakeholder engagement and trade facilitation.
At the event held last Friday, he said his association has been enjoying a very cordial relationship with other organisation in the ecosystem.
“You can see what is happening today, everybody is working together and our operations here are seamless,” he noted.
He stated that apart from creating a very robust business environment for his members and other stakeholders to operate, he has taken a decision to build and commission a befitting ANLCA Secretariat which would be completed soon and be commissioned by the ANLCA national president, Mr Emenike Nwokeoji.
The ANLCA chapter chief said since “Comptroller Salamatu Atuluku assumed office at Customs Area 1, Port Harcourt Command, it has been a different ball game, facilitating trade and increasing Revenue generation.”
“I remember I told her she was a mother during her maiden visit to the airport.
“You know when you have a woman in charge of an affair, food will not lack, compassion will not lack and motherly love will not lack.
“She is very wonderful in stakeholder engagement, revenue generation and trade facilitation,” Mr Onyema enthused.
Projecting into the future, Mr. Onyema said the year 2026 would be better for his members, adding that he has advised them on financial discipline which he said would help them during the trying period.
