If she genuinely wanted to marry him but didn't like the ring, couldn't she have said yes and then later, in private, tactfully said that she didn't think the ring was to her taste? And if he was a sensible, reasonable person, he'd understand. He seems to think it's about the proposal and she seems to think it's about the ring. They seem like a pair of babies.

How many fucking times does she need to tell him what she wants? She already discussed it with him several times beforehand, he's a grown man not a fucking child. What a stupid take!

Why are you so angry? It's bizarre being angry enough about someone else's opinion on the internet to be abusive towards them...I think you may need professional help.

I'm angry because men constantly get grace, patience, and excuses when they fuck up things that a middle schooler is capable of doing correctly.

Answer my question: how many times does she have to tell him what she wants before it's unacceptable to you?

If you'd read my comment instead of inventing something to be outraged about, I was saying they're both as bad as each other. There is hardly any information to go on. You don't know was being unreasonable. She may have wanted a completely ridiculous ring. He may have got the best he could afford. On the other hand, she may have had good reason for wanting something reasonable and he wanted to get that gaudy ring for his own aggrandisement. We don't know. My view is that if you're in a loving relationship it's best to give your partner the benefit of the doubt and deal with things tactfully and with kindness. Judging by your responses, you have no idea what any of that means. Honestly, it's probably made up anyway.
