How to Find Her Ring Size Secretly
Keep the surprise intact with these discreet ways to nail the ring size.
Planning a surprise proposal? Getting the ring size right without giving the game away is easier than you think. Here are the most reliable discreet methods.
1. Borrow a ring she already wears
The classic trick: quietly take a ring she wears on the correct hand, trace its inner circle, or press it into a bar of soap. Just be sure to return it before it's missed.
2. Ask a trusted friend or family member
A best friend, sibling, or parent can often find out her size in casual conversation, or may simply already know it.
3. Compare against your own finger
Slip one of her rings onto your own finger and mark how far it goes. A jeweler can estimate her size from that mark.
4. When in doubt, size up
If you can't get an exact size, err slightly large — a loose ring is easier to wear temporarily, and most rings can be resized after the proposal.
