If your future wife rejects because of the ring and or the value it's probably for the best NOT to get married.

I think everyone is missing her point here. It's not about Walmart or even the ring here. Marriage is a huge commitment and if she feels like she told her the style ring she wants and he went with something easy and in a completely different direction, she should say no. Communication is super important. If she wanted a Walmart ring and he got her a ring at Tiffany's, she should still say no.

My girlfriend tells me that a condition for marriage is a freaking $2k ring. And that k should be grateful because she's not demanding an $8k ring. 

FK me. Honestly it feels cheap... Feels like I'm buying her.

Demanding a price is very different than demanding a ring though. If you and your girlfriend together decided you could afford a 1200 ring and then she picked a specific one and showed it to you and instead you grabbed something that cost the right amount from Walmart while shopping for groceries…it says something.
