We're mid-late 30's (most of us in the 10th anniversary range, give or take) and the rings are .75 - 1.0 I'd guess. Maybe 1 or 2 have something bigger but that's definitely not common. My group is mostly long term SAHM's though, so I guess our priorities are a little different.

Similar, I would say 0.8 - 1.5 with some noticeable outliers down under .5 or over 2

Funny, this is us too. We married 6 years ago and all of our friends have gotten married in the last 2 years--every last woman has had a halo style ring, and I absolutely think that part of the allure is to make the center stone appear larger and to distract from flaws.

1.5-2, but nearly all are pretty low quality.

I can honestly say that I have no idea. Not only do I not pay attention to others' engagement rings, but even if I did I wouldn't know how many carats they are. FWIW, I don't wear one at all.

What a strange question.

Really big to really tiny. I don't pay much attention and I rarely wear my engagement ring or wedding ring for that matter. I don't judge my friends. Or people in my circle.

Many people in my circle don't wear engagement rings. Mine is just a row of small diamonds-- cost about $500.

Enough questions about engagement rings, jesus christ. The Kane thread really brought the airheads to DCUM.

I have no idea. I have never discussed the size of my engagement ring with anyone except the appraiser.

What's with all the engagement ring questions lately?

I would say nearly every woman has a 1.5ct. We're late 20s.
