Bonifidelifelover Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Don’t feel bad! Maybe he just can’t afford it. It should be the thought that’s most important. Maybe u can upgrade later. My friends daughter got engaged & the ring was tiny. The wedding was pushed back due to covid so the fiancé upgraded her ring. Maybe just be honest with him about how u feel? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MsJayne Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) I don't think the cost of a ring actually means that much. I've always thought the bigger the diamond the less sincere the relationship, likewise for big, expensive weddings, they're so often the ones that end in a big expensive divorce. But, I do see your point re: the football tickets. Tell him you want to insure the ring so you're going to have it valued. Then you can bring up the football tickets and his backward priorities, and maybe you can have the discussion about his 'frugality'. For me the stinginess is the problem, not the price of the ring. What magnificent gesture will he make for your honeymoon? A weekend in the nearest Travelodge, (outside of peak season)? Edited October 27, 2020 by MsJayne Link to post Share on other sites
Cookiesandough Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 That’s tacky. And I would bet this is far from the first red flag from this man. Link to post Share on other sites
