...which one, if any or both, would make you think she might have a boyfriend? I like them both but I want to look very single when I am out and about.

I wouldn't. Women get hearts from lots of places: themselves, their friends, their parents & their SOs.

Not sure how many guys draw a conclusion on whether someone is single based on what necklace she's wearing.....

 

I feel u are over thinking this.

Men won't notice unless you wear a grenade with a pin falling out since it is close to your breasts, however, I thought the second one looked cheap.

What type of earrings would you wear with that?

I've heard some men say they assumed a diamond on a gold chain was given as a gift. One necklace looks like it has a small wedding band and two hearts and a reviewer said her husband gave it to her. I actually like that one because it's different, but better safe than sorry. I'll keep shopping!

No one is going to judge availability on a necklace you could have acquired at any point... So get number two because it's prettier.

Guys know nothing about jewelry. The ones that do, you have to watch out!

I've spent too much on clothes lately so I think I'll just wait for that special guy to buy me jewelry instead. :love:

It's not the necklace you have to worry about.

 

It's the engagement ring and/or wedding band.

 

I think they might surreptitiously look for that first, if they look at all....

I'd say the first one is the safer bet. The second one looks more likely to be a gift from an SO. It actually looks very similar to a necklace I wear, from my bf.

 

Agreed though that the necklace is less likely to be noticed than a ring on the finger

Since you asked, the first one felt more "in a relationship" to me..probably the locks.

Neither in my case. One, a typical man rarely scopes out women's jewelry, save for perhaps noting a wedding ring. Two, such types of jewelry can come from many places and be symbols of many things.

 

Failed opening line in the past (for me) - 'What a lovely necklace; it really compliments you'

 

My exW used to wear a similar type (heart) necklace with a ~1.2ct marquis diamond in the middle of it. She had it made out of the wedding ring from her second husband after they divorced. Like I said, many places and reasons.

 

IMO, if it compliments you, wear it, smile and be friendly and men will enjoy interacting with you and not give the necklace's 'meaning' a second thought.

Man here. I love a womans jewelery and pay attention to it. Especially necklaces and anything on their hands/wrists. I don't pay attention to ear rings for some reason.

 

I, for some unknown reason, never see a wedding band though even if it's a huge diamond. I try to now since my female friends have made me aware of it.

Yep, this, but recognized it as atypical/outlier in my life experience with thousands of men.

 

Most women are lucky if their husbands notice/comment on the jewelry that the man has purchased for his wife :D

I saw a documentary on the subject of single women and jewellery a few years back.

 

Initially the single lady hosting the show wore a band type ring that said 'SINGLE' on it.

 

Most men saw a ring. It didn't matter what finger it was on. They assumed she was married. They weren't aware of the 'ring' finger at all.

 

The men who did notice and also read what it said thought she looked desperate.

 

But the majority (it was about 85% i think) just saw the ring so even though she was attractive avoided her.

 

I'm not sure about your choices...

I'm not into bling much though, nor hearts (my only heart shaped thing is my personal alarm! :laugh:

 

If they were the observant type who would notice they might think you were with someone with #1

This could mean he is sensitive to you and what counts for you.

#2 less so.

 

Honestly, I would go for a pretty daisy or something that could mean nothing..if you see what I mean.

 

I used to wear a tiny chunky little cross.

I discovered later that people thought I was religious and I'm not. I just liked it.

Men sometimes use whatever jewelry you are wearing as an excuse to ask whether you are single ("is that a gift from your boyfriend?").

Eff em... wear whatever you like :p

 

 

When I had a spiffy little Porsche Boxster, I sometimes wondered if people thought someone else bought it for me....

 

 

So, what did I do?? Just for fun, I'd blast the song "Golddigger" with the top down, lol.

 

 

(BTW....The first one looks more unique. The second is more common... I like the rose gold!)

I don't associate necklaces with relationship status. I haven't ever seen a woman I didn't know wearing a necklace and got a clue or assumed anything about her relationship status. The only thing I look for when I see men or women and am trying to determine if they're single is if they have a ring on their finger.

 

I have seen women wearing engagement looking rings, maybe on the right hand or on the middle finger of the left and sometimes I wonder about whether or not they're in a relationship but that's the only piece of jewelry I associate with someone being in a relationship. With necklaces I don't assume anything. I cannot identify a "boyfriend looking" or "your man gave it you" looking necklace.
