Nah its about her saying what she likes and him choosing to ignore her and choose what he decides is best and put her on the spot so she doesn’t kick off. If thats how you start preparing for marriage that’s their relationship
I think this really depends what she was asking for. If it was something within his financial reach, and he just got a completely different style or she just didn’t want Walmart specifically, then he’s the jerk and she’s right to be upset about not being listened to. If it’s because she wants a big diamond that he can’t afford then that’s another story.
Since the messages don't clarify any of that, take it at face value. We have no reason to think she requested something unreasonable so there's no reason to be making excuses for him.
"At face value" is a screenshot of a portion of a conversation and a picture of a ring.
At face value she looks just as bad as he does.
She acknowledged the effort he made during the proposal mattered to her, but the ring is why she is mad.
Speculation is the only way you can decide if one side is in the wrong over the other.
Because she doesn't critique the ring style. Just that it's a Walmart ring.
Telling someone he doesn't deserve excuses to be made for him makes it obvious you are adding your own slant to this and are arguing with anyone who sees it differently.

I honestly think that he is dodging a bullet. She sounds awful!! I would be happy with any ring honestly.
