Despite believing that his gesture was “sweet and cheesy,” however, the bride-to-be told him she didn’t want an average-looking ring.
“I don’t want the beginning of my new life to start with a second-hand ring. When I told him this, he was very upset and told me that he never thought I was so materialistic and he just left. He’s not even answering any of my messages or calls. Was I wrong?” the woman wrote.
Soon enough, Reddit users have responded, but the woman didn’t receive the answer she was hoping for. Instead, people slammed the woman for being so insensitive and inconsiderate and advised her to apologize before it’s too late.
“He explained to you that it was reminiscent of his parents’ marriage, one that he apparently felt was a marriage he wanted to emulate with you,” one person wrote.
“He was trying to show you how much he loved you, and you boiled his love down to the value of a piece of metal and a rock.”
“For you to rip that apart I can see why your (hopefully fiance) is upset. Communicate with each other. Apologize. You can still fix this by working with each other,” another user wrote.
One person commented: “I also would rather wear a diamond with family meaning and history, it’s hard for me to understand a different point of view… I guess unless the diamonds are noticeably extremely clouded, but I really doubt that’s the case.
“I’m sure they’d look great if you got them buffed. Overall, I think this was 100% shallow and materialistic. You bought way too much into the idea that a guy has to ‘buy your love’ with an expensive rock.”
