She’s Really Upset About The Ring Her Fiancé Proposed To Her With So She Asked Him To Return It For Something She Wants
A 27-year-old woman just got engaged to her fiancé, who is two years older than her. She and her fiancé have dated for approximately 3 years before he popped the question to her.
Leading up to his proposal, they discussed getting married, and she did send some photos of the ring she really wanted to her fiancé.
She thinks her fingers are somewhat chunky, so she really wanted a bigger diamond so it wouldn’t seem lost.
Knowing a diamond the size she liked would be insanely expensive, she found some moissanite rings she loved.
She did let her fiancé know that she was very happy with moissanite and that her ring did not need to be a diamond at all.
She also told her fiancé that she wanted a larger stone, and she wanted a very specific ring style.
“So skip to the engagement day, it was overall really beautiful & I obviously said yes,” she explained.
“When he went to put the ring on, the ring itself was too small…it fit but it made my finger look like the Michelin man & it was the complete opposite of everything I showed him.”
For example, she’s a fan of minimalist style bands, and her engagement ring’s band appears vintage and the center diamond is tiny.

“I still said the ring was pretty but I obviously wasn’t elated or beaming with happiness over it,” she said.
“I was actually pretty hurt he didn’t listen to anything I told him & thought he didn’t care.”
At first, she didn’t tell her fiancé how she was feeling, but after a few days, she did share that with him, and he was wildly upset with her.
It turns out, her fiancé’s grandma and mom were the ones that picked out her engagement ring along with him, and they thought the ring was beautiful.
“I asked how much the ring cost & it was way more than the moissanite rings I showed him,” she continued.
“I asked him if he could take the ring & return it & we just buy the one I liked which was much cheaper & told him he could have that extra money back for himself. He’s still soooo mad at me saying how ungrateful & spoiled I am & hasn’t even tried to return the ring.”
Since that conversation, things between them have been…awkward.
“I know it’s such a dumb situation over a ring, but it really hurts me & makes me feel like he didn’t take into consideration anything I told him about what I like,” she wrote.
“it’s not like I want a $10k huge diamond ring. The rings I liked are literally $1k-$2k cheaper than what he got me.”
“I know it’s just a ring, but it’s a ring I’m going to have & stare at for the rest of my life. & it doesn’t feel like me at all.”
She’s left wondering if she’s really being a dramatic jerk over this whole ring thing.
