“No, I hate it so much”: Woman’s reaction to engagement ring goes viral

A woman who hated the engagement ring her fiancé bought her has forced him to swap it out for one that’s DOUBLE its price. 

The bride-to-be took to TikTok and shared the story to her 450 followers about how she was “not being too much” for asking to swap the ring.

“I asked him to replace it, so I’m probably going to get a lot of hate for this and honestly, I’m OK with that; I’m aware I’m a lot,” she said. 

She explained the pair had been dating for a while but the whole time she was in “marriage headspace”. 

The woman said she explained to her boyfriend specifically what she wanted: “I want a ring with a halo. I want the little diamonds around the main ring.”

“Don’t talk to me about marriage,” she claims he said.

The woman however said that she would not move in with him unless he proposed. 

She emphasised that she “didn’t care about the size, cut, or clarity of the diamond” and that all she wanted was a “little halo on the inside diamond”. 

“The time comes, he proposed and it literally was a princess cut diamond with no halo. It was a beautiful diamond, but it was just not what I wanted,” she rambled on. 

“So after he proposed I literally went home and my mum was like, ‘Do you like the ring?’

“And I like bawled, I was like, ‘No I hate it so much and I have to wear it forever.’”

It took her a week to tell her boyfriend that she was not happy with the ring and that she wanted a new one.

“I called him and was like, ‘Hey this is going to be a hard pill to swallow but like I hate the ring – it is just not what I wanted and I am willing to wait for something that I do want but like I just need you to know that. Can we try and fix this?” she asked.

“All is well in the world. He was able to get a refund and swap it out and it was fine … I made him pay double for the ring because he took me to the store and I told him what I liked.”
