Congratulations, you are getting to see what the rest of your life will be like with this woman, who is clearly more concerned with looks and price than the actual meaning of the ring.

I like Garnet Glitter's idea, about asking for the ring back for an "upgrade" to a better fiance.

On the one hand she is being really unfair and in your face by sending pics of other ones she should be happy you proposed in the first place and she has a diamond ring..

on the other hand an engagement ring is a ring she will wear every day for the rest of her life and if she doesnt like it she may not wear it. Maybe the two of u can go and see about getting it redesigned or something..

I found out through my mum that my boyfriend asked her for help to go and look for a ring that she knew i would like.. everyone has different tastes i dont think its her being shallow its just her expressing that the ring isn't her taste.. it's like someone picking out ur wedding dress for you and u don't get a say.. u dont want to be wearing something u don't like on the most special day..

in the end though it does sound like a nice ring and she should be honest and upfront with you if she doesnt like it and not play these mind games with u that make u feel like crap.

Good Lord, she just doesn't like the ring. It's not the end of the world. You don't have to break up with her. She's not a beggar. She wants an engagement ring that she loves, just like any other woman out there. You want to make her/see her happy, don't you? She just doesn't like the ring and she is the one that has to wear it and look at it every day. How would you (or anyone else that is bashing her) like it if you didn't like something that you had to look at/wear everyday. Who cares if everyone else says, it's "great" - she doesn't like it.

Tell her you get it. Then take her shopping for a ring she loves. Same general price, etc. Just have her assure you that she LOVES this one, because she's not getting another shot at it. Just chill out and make it right.

I think a real conversation is in order WITH HER. I can't get over all these people telling you to dump her over a silly ring. I'm sorry, but if you're willing to marry her, devote your whole life to her, isn't this worth talking about? How good of a life partner can one honestly be if you'd walk over that? Maybe she doesn't like the ring you gave her-its not the end of the world. You undoubtedly want her to be happy, right? So talk it over, and either get her a different ring or come to some understanding that you will get her an upgraded ring for your 10th anniversary or whatever.

I'm sorry, but she has to be happy with anything you've given her because "beggars can't be choosers" as one respondent said? So, your fiancee is a beggar because she agreed to share your life with you as your wife?

All I'm saying is talk to her.

Tell her beggars cant be choosers!! She should love you no matter what rock she has on her finger, getting married isnt about diamonds its about love...but girls will be girls, even tho I think she did go a little too far with sending u pics of other rings, she should'v just talked to u about it.

If I were you I would tell her how you feel, If you really want to marry her then u know her better than anyone else would so if u think she deserves a better ring than get her what she wants to make her happy, most girls are pretty picky when it comes to something they're going to be wearing all the time for the rest of there life!

It seems she is putting much more emphasis on the ring, how much, what size, and to be showing you pictures, etc. to me points to a very shallow, materialistic (perhaps so concerned with keeping up the Jones as the old saying goes) personality. She seems to be putting the ring before you and I would have second thoughts or really research the feelings you do have towards her. I mean, who/whom is she marrying you or the ring. I am older, much, and this thing of the bride picking out her own ring and comparing it to Susie's 2 carat and wanting one the same or bigger, which is a stupid competition anyway, burns my butter. Many girls do not even get rings, their fiance's simply cannot afford one, but do you see the girl breaking up with him because of this. Back in the day, may day, you were lucky to get a ring and doggone glad to get it and thrilled with what the man of your dreams picked out for you. Whether we liked it or not, it didn't matter, we took what we got with gratitude and love for the man in our lives. She sounds shallow, rethink this. To do: Have a good talk with her and ask her what she is trying to do, is the ring not good enough for her and if she is going to be this way about a ring, then perhaps if she is not pleased with it, maybe she should give it back.

You need to have a serious word with her. She should of told you when you proposed that the ring was lovely however its not to her taste or something she would wear. Now it is too late to take it back as its been worn.

Tell her that once you have been married a significant amount of time 10/20 years you will buy a new ring for her and she can choose it (not too expensive)

My fiance proposed to me then we went shopping together for a ring as he knew how fussy I was.

The engagement ring is about the meaning behind it, not the price of it. If I were you I would be like "Is the ring I got you not good enough or something?". And no you are not wrong for getting mad at your fiance, materialistic people make me angry too (they are never satisfied).

Listen to how materialistic she is now and keep that in mind when asking yourself is this is the kind of person you want to live with for the rest of your life. She is being petty about the ring. Perhaps you should take it back and get your money back for it. She doesn't appreciate the gift and doesn't deserve it.

She apparently doesn't appreciate your choice of rings. Is she hinting that you trade it for a model that she likes better? You may have to give her an ultimatum, either keep the one you gave her or find another guy who will let her select the one she prefers.
