Guy Proposes To His Gold Digger Of A Girlfriend With A Fake Ring And What Happens When They Break Up Is Karma At Its Finest
Sometimes, karma just takes a bit to catch up with people, like this woman named Karen that a man named Dave was dating.
Karen was definitely a gold digger, and she also acted quite entitled. “She was a bit of white trailer trash but fancied herself a rich lady,” Dave’s cousin explained.
“She was VERY vocal to all the other women in the family about how she wanted a “traditional” diamond ring and how she’d like Dave to follow the “tradition” of getting her an engagement ring worth 3 month’s salary.”
Dave had a decent job, but he just didn’t have that kind of money to propose to Karen with the ring she insisted upon having.
So, Dave researched different diamond alternatives, and he ended up discovering white sapphires.
White sapphires look so similar to a diamond, an untrained eye really can’t tell the difference, and Dave thought it would be a great pick for an engagement ring.
Dave was now able to afford exactly what Karen had wanted in regards to the size of the stone and the band of the ring.
He then proposed to Karen, telling her that it was a diamond ring he picked that took him over a year to save up for.
Maybe that wasn’t the nicest thing to do, but Dave confided in his cousin that it was his way of getting back at Karen for being a beast about the ring in the first place.

I’m sure you’re wondering why Dave decided to go through with the engagement in the first place considering Karen doesn’t sound like a nice person, but nobody is really sure about that part of the story.
Anyway, Dave and Karen got down to wedding planning, but then things became a big problem over the list of guests.
Karen found the venue of her dreams, but it didn’t have the capacity to invite both of their large families.
Karen sent out invites behind Dave’s back, only inviting her side of the family and not Dave’s.
When Dave found out, he called off the wedding and broke up with Karen. Karen kept the engagement ring, and Dave didn’t care.
“It didn’t hold any value to him and he was more worried about the wedding he was now having to cancel and the texts he was getting from Karen’s side,” his cousin said.
“It took a few months but they all calmed down and he didn’t hear from her until last month.”
Karen tried to pawn her engagement ring, thinking she would get a few thousand dollars for it. Meanwhile, it was obviously only worth a few hundred dollars.
“She called Dave several times and sent a billion texts (he never answered or picked up) DEMANDING that he pay her in cash what the ring was worth, threatening to sue for the lie he told her, etc,” Dave’s cousin continued.
“He and I had a good laugh listening to her tantrum. I guess diamonds might be a girl’s best friend, but sapphires are definitely not for Karens.”
