Secretly getting a Man's Ring sized (for a Wedding Ring or Diamond Band) without him knowing about it, is much more difficult and different than getting a Lady's Ring Sized Secretly!

With Men...
There is No Easy Answer!
Men don't go to Jewelry Stores with their buddies to try on Wedding Bands.
They don't dream about the perfect Ring they'll be getting. They don't know what their finger size is and certainly don't plant seeds of knowledge into their trusted friends. "Tell Her my Ring Size is a Size 11.5!" It's not going to happen! With Men, it's a whole different ball game.
There are NO Clues!
There is no easy way to tell. And it's not like she can have her Man try on her Ring so she can secretly gage it. Men's fingers are usually twice as big as lady's are and her Ring will usually only fit half way up his little pinky. That'll do you no good!
All the normal routes to take to secretly get his finger size have gone out the window.
I've had Women try the "String around his finger while he sleeps" trick.
It Doesn't Work!
String is a poor indicator and won't help you in the least when it comes to a thick, Comfort-Fit Ring Size! Plus, he's bound to wake up and wonder what the heck you're up to.
Some ladies will bring in his Class Ring, College Ring or Football Ring to help get an accurate size.
But that's even a poorer indication, because Rings like that are very wide, heavy on top, and fit nothing like a Wedding Band will. Wide Rings can even be 1 or 1.5 sizes bigger than a normal Ring. It just won't cut it!
Take My Advice...
So here's my advice about the whole secret Ring size dilemma.
Don't worry about it!
Because Men don't care anyway! It's not like he doesn't know you're getting him a Ring. I mean, if you're buying him a Wedding Ring, chances are good that he's already proposed to you. There is no secret! Right?
Bottom Line is:
Men don't want, and don't care if the Ring you give him fits!
He doesn't wear it immediately like an Engagement Ring. He only puts it on during the Wedding. So he's not going to be sad if he can't put it on now. He's not going to want to show it off to all his friends. In fact, he probably doesn't even want to wear it in the first place.
Most Men Hate Wearing Rings!
Either buy the Ring in the default Ring Size, which is a Size 10, and let him order it in the correct size later...
Or, take him to the Jewelry Store with you to pick out his Ring and get it sized. It's that simple. Men are fine with that.
They don't care if it's a secret or not.
That's a ladies' thing! Men won't care if it wasn't romantic or dreamy.
With Men, it's a practical thing.
Something that they HAVE to do!
They all know that they have to wear a Wedding Band. It goes hand in hand with getting Married. No Surprise! No Secret!
A Ring is a Ring
So is he going to care if it doesn't fit right away?
Nope! Not in the least!
Surprised?
