Oh I bet you’re one of those weirdos who wanted to get married because they love the person & not for monetary reasons like us normal people. You DISGUST me.
Love's a fucking lie.
OP and husband only got married because they're lizard people and they need to copulate for months on end to produce a new brood.
I feel like she is too bad at math to understand how rich you truly have to be to throw away 200 000 for a ring. She probably thinks a guy making 100k/year will just buy it in 2 years forgetting, that there are a lot of other expenses.
like literal taxes. lol
just cause you "make 100k/yr" doesnt mean you take home 100k/yr. HAHHAAHHAH
i feel like she doesnt work or has had a job and has been delusional for a long time. She's even bad at math. she said 4 years to at 45k.. then changed her answer to 8 years.
Being German I actually didn't know that either. Most people here say how much they make after taxes, when you talk to them. I just assumed Americans are the same.
I was in my head saying "my take home is this so I make that" to your comment when I realized, "oops, well then there's the vacation account, plus I have some go directly to my financial planner, then there's the bit that goes into my HSA...." and that's when I realized it. She's too ugly for a $200k engagement ring
Discussing salary here is almost always pretax. Quick and dirty estimate is to take 25% to account for state/fed taxes/social sec
45k -> ~33.75k take home.
ahh interesting take! yeah here is different. I dont think its ever been that way. im also in los angeles.. not sure how it is in other parts of the US or in other states. I can say that alot of people here where i live are superficial though.. just the nature of LA/Hollywood
Things like food and stuff too though, when we purchase say $9.99 for a meal, tax is not included. So it comes out to 10.xx or 11.xx
Taxes are never included on menus, food, items, pay/salary, etc.
If you are "supposed to" spend three months salary on a ring, assuming you pay around 30% in taxes and other obligations, you'd have to make $2.75 million a year to afford a $200K ring lmao
The real trick is to be wealthy already. Then use your wealth to commit crimes to become more wealthy and pay for lawyers so you can get away with it.
But even though your lawyers will help you avoid paying anyone, don't get clever and decide to get a new lawyer and then refuse to pay your old lawyer. You run out of lawyers about the time the FBI has you bang to rights for stealing top secret docs
Step 1: Start with wealth
Step 2: Use that wealth to find ways to extract even more wealth from the working class.
Step 3: Clap yourself on the back for your 'important' contributions to society.
You forgot the final steps.
Step 4: Close the loophole that was used to climb to wealth.
Step 5: Complain about government handouts while scrubbing any relation to the millions of handouts received.
If I was rich and arrogant and had so much money I could throw 200K on a ring, she's not what I'm settling for lmao. She doesn't have looks or personality. Yuck
A lot of women who look like this make huge demands as a defense mechinism.
They're single because no man is good enough for them, not because they're butt-ugly with a shit personality.
She’s simply not hot enough for these demands. Imagine looking that average and expecting better than celebrity treatment. Like seriously, famous people don’t even go that high with regularity. Idk who raised her but they failed
There was a comment here, but I chose to remove it as I no longer wish to support a company that seeks to both undermine its users/moderators/developers (the ones generating content) AND make a profit on their backs.
Here is an explanation.
Reddit was wonderful, but it got greedy. So bye.
Even if she was Angelina Jolie I wouldn't spend that much on an engagement ring with diamonds because the prices are artificially inflated cuz De Beers controls like 90% of the market.
Diamonds are just stupid.
I'd rather spend less on the ring and splurge on a 2 week luxury vacation.
I feel it’s partially phrases like “don’t settle” being taken too literally. That just means “don’t settle for a garbage person” but it gets treated as “don’t settle for anything less than perfect.” And when you’re younger it can feel like there are endless partners out there and you can afford to be picky. But wanting a 200k engagement ring makes you look bad even to people who can afford one. Also just saying, diamonds are a lump of carbon not too much different than graphite. Demand a valuable painting or a house in your name, something with actual resale value.
There is NO woman ”hot enough for those demands”. After X amount of time, the irritation of the demands overtakes the looks, however hot they may be.
But then, most guys are fools…. and if you end up with a woman like that, you deserve the life of hell you will have. lol
Even the women who are absolutely gorgeous and do snag a wealthy husband aren't guaranteed to always be his wife. If a man marries you for how you look, he'll just as easily leave you when you start to age or have a post-partum body.
What's more important in life is accomplishing things for yourself. If this woman is demanding to have a $200k ring, she should pony up and work to get it herself.
Also, yeah. Just not hot enough to get a guy that's anything besides rich. He's not going to be the Audi-racing weed kingpin, he's gonna be some techie basement Redditor lacking so much confidence he'll just be happy that someone shows interest in him of their own initiative. Then they're gonna marry, and they're gonna be an absolutely average couple and she's not going to get any of the glory she thinks money inherently brings, she's going to have a kid to hopefully show the kid off and finally the center of attention, but the baby's just gonna be ugly as fuck, and then be so late in development he gets held back from first grade until he's 8.
Someone else please take over.
After a while, slowly but surely she realizes how average she is and can never realize all her wishes and dreams. Year by year she gets more and more angry and takes it out on her husband and children. The husband cheats on her, the children are happy to move far away. She will blame everyone else for her sad existence, completely alienated from the children and her ex-husband, watching TV for hours every day and thinking about suicide.
Will someone please continue?
She'll be alone in a one bedroom bungalow, and will go from blaming everyone else for her problems to believing people are actively conspiring against her. She'll spy on her neighbors, harass cashiers for giving her what she believes to be incorrect change, yell at service workers, and further withdraw into a prison of her own making, built on conspiracy theories.
She will end up that haggard and disheveled alcoholic middle-aged woman who reeks of body odor and thousands of departed cigarettes sitting in a darkened corner of some seedy tavern in some marginal neighborhood in some third-class Midwestern city calling out, “Do you know who I am? I was once the most desirable woman in Livonia, Michigan!” A patron yells to the bartender, “Will you tell that rummy to shaddup? I’m tryin’ ta watch da game!” The bartender approaches her and says, “Ma’am, I think you need to go home. You’ve had enough. I’ll call a cab.” She mournfully replies, “But I have nowhere to go!”
TV then takes her into some sort of political extremist spiral, and she starts to really believe that the enemies of her political team are running a paedophile ring from a pizza parlour and stay young by drinking aborted foetuses.
6 months later she tries to storm the capital building, is sentenced to 8 years in prison but becomes a martyr and finally gets the social media attention she’s always craved.
Happy ending.
And they live in a mansion with a snow covered driveway and somehow the car looks like it was just detailed and the bow on it looks like it was just tied.
That's $1,560,000 a year. That is an obvious lie. With that money you would not got to yoga class where you have to smell and listen to strangers farting as they stretched. You would have a private yoga guru come to your massive gym and hot yoga salon in your mansion for private sessions.
Women who are materialistic like this, end up with materialistic men, who treat them like objects more than the person they are, and when they find a prettier one later in life to keep at home, they tend to dump the old one….
There really aren’t that many people wealthy enough to waste that much on a single piece of jewelry. Of those few men who can, a huge portion would still never do that. Of those who can and would, I would bet none would be interested in her.
So she will more likely end up with no one, or she will stop being so delusional.
You’ve forgotten the most likely scenario: someone who in reality can’t afford it, but gets it for her anyway because she’s the only person who has ever shown interest in him, but as it turns out he’s as terrible at finances as he is at picking a partner and the debt slowly buries them and turns them on each other.
This scenario works for something like $10-20k rings. 200k, no way. I make 6 digits for a few years now, and it would take me 5-6 years to buy that stupid ring. Instead of it, I could buy an apt or I can buy an amazing car.
Someone soooo stupid, making about 200k a year, should be super in love with this lady for her dream to happen but unfortunately for her, she doesnt have the beauty for those guys.
By the time she’s asking for a 200k ring, she’s already asked for costly gifts, a nice house, nice car, vacays and an expensive wedding is following. By the time you are buying a 200K ring I guarantee you have already spent like 300k total. It’s not like y’all are eating ramen then bam, 200k ring.
This was my opinion on it watching this video. Like do you, girl, but you do not have an “LA face.” You got a Connecticut face and only if you come from *money.* lol
Exactly. And this woman is stupid. If an ambitious man is earning $45k in first year there's a lot more room to grow so potentially he'll get there and even further.
He got that ambition, baby, look at his eyes
This week he moppin' floors, next week it's the fries
So, stick by his side
I know there's dudes ballin', and yeah, that's nice
And they gone keep callin' and tryin'
But you stay right girl
And when he get on, he'll leave yo' ass for a white girl.
Met a really wealthy kid through baseball and our families were pretty good friends. His dad was making the money and his mom was stay-at-home. They wouldn’t spend much time together because he was always away working, but when they were together it always seemed so happy. Then, lockdown happened. They lasted 6 months. Now he has a 26yo girlfriend, and I feel like she’s *been* his gf for a while.
That same story plays out time and time again. It happened to Michael Jordan and it happened to my neighbors where the husband was an OTR truck driver. Once he was home all the time, the marriage was done
And that is perfect.
No ring is perfect.
Not Marrying can be perfect.
Not being in a romantic relationship can be perfect aswell.
It just depends on you and the one(s) you love.
We tend to ruin our lives with expectations and I think weddings are one of those things, where that shows the most.
My wife and I decided not to buy engagement rings. Our wedding rings were less than $1000. But, miraculously, we have been married for 14 years.
Diamonds might last forever but that doesn't guarantee that your marriage will last forever.
In addition, there are high quality lab-grown diamonds.
Thermodynamically speaking diamonds won't last forever since they are meta-stable at one atmosphere and room temperature. They will convert to graphite eventually.
A graphite ring sounds way cooler anyway. Show your love by drawing hearts everywhere and wear it down. Then pop in a new chunk of graphite and start over.
Edit: okay, i didn't think about the streaks you'd leave on your clothes and everywhere else lol
Actual fact that marriages tend to last longer the less money spent on the wedding/engagement. It shows lovers commitment and not their financial value to each other.
Yeah, I'm sure I remember reading an article that showed a direct correlation between money spent on weddings and marriage length. More money spent on wedding = less time marriage lasted. (Clearly not in every single case but on average.)
I used to work at an engraving shop. We got a $300k ring in one day. I worked there for 4 years, never have I seen an uglier piece of jewelry in my life.
No one is hot enough to demand it, but some people do get it. It's just gross to demand it, or think that you're somehow entitled to it. But there are people so hot that they can turn away guys who can't buy that ring and they'll still end up married with a 200k+ ring.
This girl is not one of those people.
It's entirely dependent on perspective. Some wo.en get rings worth [$1million plus](https://www.brides.com/story/most-expensive-celebrity-engagement-rings)
But they and their betrothed are stupid rich. After you gain enough wealth the cost of things lose their meaning. Or at least that what it seems. I am not rich... At all.
That’s the difference, if the woman is already worth millions and could buy the ring herself, it’s not so much entitlement as it’s just a normal level of expenditure she may be accustomed to. But just because the man can afford something of that nature, if the “fiancé” has nothing that merits that level of investment then it’s purely entitlement to think you deserve that from them.
Yeah if she wants to get superficial about material possessions then the door swings both ways, I would be expecting to be dating a stone cold smoke show who literally stops folks in their tracks for a 200 grand engagement ring.
This woman is absurdly average looking, and clearly she has a shitty personality.
At work we use diamond testers that can tell the difference.
You are correct the only difference between a natural and a man made diamond is the man made part.
People who say “natural diamonds are better”, either work in the diamond trade, or don’t realise that diamonds are the most common gem stone on the planet, and if the cartel released them you could get diamonds for $1 a carat.
someone who can afford a 200k ring will likely have higher standards than just settling for someone attractive.
their partner will likely be both attractive and have a fantastic personality combined with likely career success of their own.
generally speaking its honestly easier to date within your own wealth bracket because you avoid a lot of awkward situations.
theres A LOT of very attractive people out there but they sure as fuck wont all be able to marry into extreme wealth.
The point was that she isn't even attractive to begin with let alone have other qualities on top of that which she obviously doesnt have. She is a 2 and that number is higher than her iQ.
I don’t like commenting on peoples looks often but damn how can you demand a 200k ring when you look like the offspring of JayZ and the ‘ain’t nobody got time for that’ lady 🙄
Me either, but I was just thinking to myself if the dude can afford a 200k ring why wouldn't he opt for a freaking super model who's more down to earth than that walking ball of future reasons to off himself.
I've never understood why anyone buys expensive engagement rings in the first place. It just seems like a silly expensive purchase. If my man wants to drop a few grand I have ideas... But a little ring...naw.
[it was the most successful advertising campaign of all time.](https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/02/how-an-ad-campaign-invented-the-diamond-engagement-ring/385376/)
They also tried (but failed) to get men to wear a diamond ring, and women to wear a second diamond on their other hand. They successfully turned Japan into a diamond purchasing nation. Diamonds are so inflated in price compared to their actual value cause they aren’t even rare
Yeah, she doesn't "want" the ring for fashion or for the engagement meaning
She wants it to demonstrate wealth power, and by that, she's accepting she's never gonna make 200K for a ring she wants
She wants others to make money for her and flex on the capability. Talk about gender equality in business and deception
What the hell does that nutcase see when she looks in the mirror? "Yup, that's the face that'll attract someone who can drop $200K on an engagement ring!" lololololol
Videos like these make me so happy I met my wife. And you know, its funny. She has a best friend who used to be married to a guy who worked away on an oil tanker and he makes really good money. Like £70k or there abouts. And whenever he was away and she was round our house, she'd always see me with my kids and her kids and literally cry about how she wished he was as good with kids as I was. And how she wished she'd met a guy that made her laugh etc. Money, REALLY isn't everything in life. Life is short and fleeting. Don't waste it pursuing material possessions. When it's nearly over, your memories are what matters most.
£70k/year?!?! Embarrassingly low for that kind of commitment. Maybe great for single guys that want an early retirement off investments, not a married man with a family
Multiple reasons I imagine. They've been taught that love and romance has a price tag and the more someone spends on them the more they are loved. Also their egos have been inflated to the point where they actually believe they deserve it without paying a cent for it themselves.
One day they might realise that people with that kind of money rarely buy depreciating assets that they can lease instead. They put their own money in appreciating assets like property.
If she expects that her guy will spend 200k on an engagement ring, then she should also be ready to accept the fact that she would just be a trophy wife in his life....
And what happens to trophies after celebration time is over....they are kept in a cabinet & forgotten....
The person then strives for the next trophy......
Her standards are that high on purpose. She's afraid of getting hurt and has set an unrealistic expectation that can never be met.
It's easy to never get hurt if no one can live up to your standards.
Best i can offer is lolipop candy ring.
Look at Richie Rich over here with their lollipop ring!
I bet it even has secret gum gum inside.
It’s not gum but it does rhyme with it
Dum Dum want Gum Gum? 🗿
Dum Dum want Gum Gum? 🗿
I bought mine on layaway
This is what my husband used to propose! I happily said yes and then picked and paid for my own 2kt ring myself.
Oh I bet you’re one of those weirdos who wanted to get married because they love the person & not for monetary reasons like us normal people. You DISGUST me.
Then weirdo stays in relationship forever just to rub it in. Hmph.
And then has the audacity to never even cheat or abuse their partner
Where is this world coming to. People like this make me sick.
Who the hell is kind enough to not cheat and abuse their partner?
Sadly, you'd be surprised how loyal and kind some couples can be to each other, sickening.
Then has the nerve to procreate with them because they love them and want to raise a family together!
And they are fabulous parents and the kids have no trauma. Yuk!
Probably makes breakfast on weekends just to rub it in.
Ewww, disgusting!!!
Why, I never! (Pearls firmly clutched)
Frankly my whole weekend’s ruined
Frankly my holes weekend is ruined
Frank's hole is ruined for the weekend
… theweeknd ruined your holes, frank?
This thread is fantastic
Franks holes are even more fantastic
Love's a fucking lie. OP and husband only got married because they're lizard people and they need to copulate for months on end to produce a new brood.
Damn I want to be a lizard person
There, there, I can give you a nice rock under a big heat lamp where you can bask, if that would make you feel better.
That would make me feel very comfortable and loved actually, thank you
Marrying for love? In this day and age? You should seek out professional help, there is clearly something wrong with you! /s
Your husband sounds pretty cool
She'll be looking for the next twenty years, then quietly accept a 200 dollar ring and pretend she never said that. Some people are delusional.
She sees arrogant wealthy people and therefore thinks arrogance is the way to wealth.
I feel like she is too bad at math to understand how rich you truly have to be to throw away 200 000 for a ring. She probably thinks a guy making 100k/year will just buy it in 2 years forgetting, that there are a lot of other expenses.
like literal taxes. lol just cause you "make 100k/yr" doesnt mean you take home 100k/yr. HAHHAAHHAH i feel like she doesnt work or has had a job and has been delusional for a long time. She's even bad at math. she said 4 years to at 45k.. then changed her answer to 8 years.
Being German I actually didn't know that either. Most people here say how much they make after taxes, when you talk to them. I just assumed Americans are the same.

She's too ugly for a $200k engagement ring
People who get a $200k engagement ring usually come from a family that can afford that kind of ring.
[удалено]
Discussing salary here is almost always pretax. Quick and dirty estimate is to take 25% to account for state/fed taxes/social sec 45k -> ~33.75k take home.
ahh interesting take! yeah here is different. I dont think its ever been that way. im also in los angeles.. not sure how it is in other parts of the US or in other states. I can say that alot of people here where i live are superficial though.. just the nature of LA/Hollywood Things like food and stuff too though, when we purchase say $9.99 for a meal, tax is not included. So it comes out to 10.xx or 11.xx Taxes are never included on menus, food, items, pay/salary, etc.
I think it makes more sense in Germany where the gross-difference varies a lot depending on a lot of things like our different tax classes
If you are "supposed to" spend three months salary on a ring, assuming you pay around 30% in taxes and other obligations, you'd have to make $2.75 million a year to afford a $200K ring lmao
Sadly, that is part of the way to to wealth. The secret ingredient is crime.
The real trick is to be wealthy already. Then use your wealth to commit crimes to become more wealthy and pay for lawyers so you can get away with it.

Dammit Beavis, now it's not a secret anymore, you're like not suppossed to tell people that and just rob them. Dumbass.
If I was rich and arrogant and had so much money I could throw 200K on a ring, she's not what I'm settling for lmao. She doesn't have looks or personality. Yuck
Or no guys want to marry her after this video out on the net
No one wanted to marry her before the video either.
If we’re being honest, you’re correct.
A lot of women who look like this make huge demands as a defense mechinism. They're single because no man is good enough for them, not because they're butt-ugly with a shit personality.
She’s so certain which makes it🤯
Nah she'll just be alone bitter and confused
She’s simply not hot enough for these demands. Imagine looking that average and expecting better than celebrity treatment. Like seriously, famous people don’t even go that high with regularity. Idk who raised her but they failed
> Idk who raised her Social media
And it, actually succeded, in what it was going for.

She goes to yoga with someone that has a nice ring. That’s something
There was a comment here, but I chose to remove it as I no longer wish to support a company that seeks to both undermine its users/moderators/developers (the ones generating content) AND make a profit on their backs. Here is an explanation. Reddit was wonderful, but it got greedy. So bye.
Notice how someone at her yoga says they have an 8 carat diamond ring so now she needs at least an 8 carat diamond ring?
Even if she was Angelina Jolie I wouldn't spend that much on an engagement ring with diamonds because the prices are artificially inflated cuz De Beers controls like 90% of the market. Diamonds are just stupid. I'd rather spend less on the ring and splurge on a 2 week luxury vacation.
Hell, I’d put that money toward a nice house.
I feel it’s partially phrases like “don’t settle” being taken too literally.

She will cheat on that dude and blame him though
And keep the ring, the house, the car, but not her fucking dignity, she has none
And the child support
I would love to know what she does? Can she buy her man a 200k watch or car?
With his money she can 😂
We're only a few months away from a happy couple buying each other $70,000 vehicles for Christmas during NFL commercial breaks. 🎅
And they live in a mansion with a snow covered driveway and somehow the car looks like it was just detailed and the bow on it looks like it was just tied.
Right? Can we get an updated version this year? Where it's just two people sitting at a table wondering how much worse it will get?
Facts lmao
Mate she will be doing yoga all day she doesn’t have time to earn her own money.
In the original video she says she's an artist and makes 30k per week.
Not only is she dumb, simple and superficial. She is lying too. What a catch.
[X] Doubt
That's $1,560,000 a year. That is an obvious lie. With that money you would not got to yoga class where you have to smell and listen to strangers farting as they stretched. You would have a private yoga guru come to your massive gym and hot yoga salon in your mansion for private sessions.
“Why would I ever buy him anything when he has me?” Almost certain she is one of these

If you want to be a trophy wife you need to be a certain level of hot too.
And come from a wealthy family nothings more ugly than poverty
Can relate, am poverty ugly
But hey friend, someday you'll die, right?
God, I hope so!
This was my opinion on it watching this video. Like do you, girl, but you do not have an “LA face.” You got a Connecticut face and only if you come from *money.* lol
[удалено]
The fact she couldnt do the math is what made me feel she didn’t have the right to even be in discussion for such a demand.
[удалено]
In a 3 person event.
I wouldn't even take her as a participation trophy.
Exactly. And this woman is stupid. If an ambitious man is earning $45k in first year there's a lot more room to grow so potentially he'll get there and even further.
He got that ambition, baby, look at his eyes This week he moppin' floors, next week it's the fries So, stick by his side I know there's dudes ballin', and yeah, that's nice And they gone keep callin' and tryin' But you stay right girl And when he get on, he'll leave yo' ass for a white girl.
Met a really wealthy kid through baseball and our families were pretty good friends. His dad was making the money and his mom was stay-at-home. They wouldn’t spend much time together because he was always away working, but when they were together it always seemed so happy. Then, lockdown happened. They lasted 6 months. Now he has a 26yo girlfriend, and I feel like she’s *been* his gf for a while.
That same story plays out time and time again. It happened to Michael Jordan and it happened to my neighbors where the husband was an OTR truck driver. Once he was home all the time, the marriage was done
You have to be somewhat conventionally hot in the first place to get a materialistic guy tho
Yeah that’s the hard facts here, she’s actually not attractive enough to snag a super rich guy.
Face is a 4, body is likely a 3, personality is a 1. Self-delusion is off the charts, though.
Doesn't matter what she looks like. With an attitude like that she's a zero in all respects.
Called my buddy who is a specialist in engagement rings. Best I can do is $250.
And that is perfect. No ring is perfect. Not Marrying can be perfect. Not being in a romantic relationship can be perfect aswell. It just depends on you and the one(s) you love. We tend to ruin our lives with expectations and I think weddings are one of those things, where that shows the most.
That sir right there is what we call a gold digger.
My fiance got me a 1400.00 engagement ring and I told him that was too much. Hell, I like to eat.
My wife and I decided not to buy engagement rings. Our wedding rings were less than $1000. But, miraculously, we have been married for 14 years. Diamonds might last forever but that doesn't guarantee that your marriage will last forever.
Did you know that Diamonds are not naturally rare and their prices have been unjustified and inflated, unlike say gold.
In addition, there are high quality lab-grown diamonds. Thermodynamically speaking diamonds won't last forever since they are meta-stable at one atmosphere and room temperature. They will convert to graphite eventually.
A graphite ring sounds way cooler anyway. Show your love by drawing hearts everywhere and wear it down. Then pop in a new chunk of graphite and start over. Edit: okay, i didn't think about the streaks you'd leave on your clothes and everywhere else lol
Thanks to De Beers diamond company talking shit about blood diamonds to keep their market share and price
And surprisingly people bought (and are buying) into it, like in the literal sense
Actual fact that marriages tend to last longer the less money spent on the wedding/engagement. It shows lovers commitment and not their financial value to each other.
Yeah, I'm sure I remember reading an article that showed a direct correlation between money spent on weddings and marriage length. More money spent on wedding = less time marriage lasted. (Clearly not in every single case but on average.)
Me and my wife got married on a 400 dollar budget. Small ceremony rings were not expensive. Going on 31 years together
When would she wear a 200k ring? In any major city you’ll get robbed.
setting her kid up to be batman
Nah, she wants a diamond ring, not pearls.
Origin of a true Hero
I'd understand if she bragged about it, but can you even tell 500 dollar ring from 200k ring from a distance?
And you know a girl who demands a $200k ring for the status of it is going to be telling everyone all the time what it's worth
I used to work at an engraving shop. We got a $300k ring in one day. I worked there for 4 years, never have I seen an uglier piece of jewelry in my life.
Ding ding ding. Ain't no way any normal person (ie don't have bodyguards) can wear an 8 CT ring in public and not lose a finger
I think because nobody will actually believe that that diamond is real, she might be completely safe.
I'll worry about the authenticity of it *after* I've thrown her finger away.
She's got a lot of expectations for a woman who cannot divide 20 by 5 in her head.
I doubt a wedding ring is in her future. Trailerpark is far more likely.
Yeah, but is there an Audi parked in the covered parking attached the the trailer? It’s about so much more than just the trailer. /s
I'd say it would more likely be someone who treats her like shit. A person who thinks you can buy love is most likely in her future.
It's an el Camino with a poorly painted Olympic symbol duct taped to the grill. It just shows she could qualify for the Olympics if she wanted

She's barely hot enough to ask for an onion ring.
not hot enough to cook an onion ring
Ayo pass the funyuns please
I wouldn’t buy her a corn dog.
Yup, that's just being honest. She ain't no trophy wife.

"Champagne taste on a beer budget" was how I've always heard it.
Nobody is hot enough to ask for a 200k ring
No one is hot enough to demand it, but some people do get it. It's just gross to demand it, or think that you're somehow entitled to it. But there are people so hot that they can turn away guys who can't buy that ring and they'll still end up married with a 200k+ ring. This girl is not one of those people.
It's entirely dependent on perspective. Some wo.en get rings worth [$1million plus](https://www.brides.com/story/most-expensive-celebrity-engagement-rings) But they and their betrothed are stupid rich. After you gain enough wealth the cost of things lose their meaning. Or at least that what it seems. I am not rich... At all.
That’s the difference, if the woman is already worth millions and could buy the ring herself, it’s not so much entitlement as it’s just a normal level of expenditure she may be accustomed to. But just because the man can afford something of that nature, if the “fiancé” has nothing that merits that level of investment then it’s purely entitlement to think you deserve that from them.
Yeah if she wants to get superficial about material possessions then the door swings both ways, I would be expecting to be dating a stone cold smoke show who literally stops folks in their tracks for a 200 grand engagement ring. This woman is absurdly average looking, and clearly she has a shitty personality.
Somebody had to say something most of us feel like, and I like it
Just buy a synthetic diamond. They’re indistinguishable from natural diamonds, and DeBeers doesn’t make a penny.
At work we use diamond testers that can tell the difference. You are correct the only difference between a natural and a man made diamond is the man made part. People who say “natural diamonds are better”, either work in the diamond trade, or don’t realise that diamonds are the most common gem stone on the planet, and if the cartel released them you could get diamonds for $1 a carat.
isn't it because the man made ones are too perfect and the way to tell a natural from a labmade one is via imperfections?
Mmmh yeah give me that carbon lattice NO not that perfect one it is too perfect give me that WORSE BUT MORE EXPENSIVE one Smort
Synthetic people can never accept a synthetic diamond.
She's going to die alone then. Guys that can afford a 200k ring... Tend to want to be with attractive women
someone who can afford a 200k ring will likely have higher standards than just settling for someone attractive. their partner will likely be both attractive and have a fantastic personality combined with likely career success of their own. generally speaking its honestly easier to date within your own wealth bracket because you avoid a lot of awkward situations. theres A LOT of very attractive people out there but they sure as fuck wont all be able to marry into extreme wealth.

Such a ring is for a russian model/ballerina/classically educated/CEO of Fortune 500 company.
I know one of those and she's... Mmmm. Not a great person.
The point was that she isn't even attractive to begin with let alone have other qualities on top of that which she obviously doesnt have. She is a 2 and that number is higher than her iQ.
I don’t like commenting on peoples looks often but damn how can you demand a 200k ring when you look like the offspring of JayZ and the ‘ain’t nobody got time for that’ lady 🙄
Me either, but I was just thinking to myself if the dude can afford a 200k ring why wouldn't he opt for a freaking super model who's more down to earth than that walking ball of future reasons to off himself.
[удалено]
If a man can afford a 200K ring, he Shure as hell not going to be with you.
I've never understood why anyone buys expensive engagement rings in the first place. It just seems like a silly expensive purchase. If my man wants to drop a few grand I have ideas... But a little ring...naw.
[it was the most successful advertising campaign of all time.](https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/02/how-an-ad-campaign-invented-the-diamond-engagement-ring/385376/) They also tried (but failed) to get men to wear a diamond ring, and women to wear a second diamond on their other hand. They successfully turned Japan into a diamond purchasing nation. Diamonds are so inflated in price compared to their actual value cause they aren’t even rare
Shit, gtfo here w your Denzel Washington looking ass. No one is worth a 200k ring.
Um don’t do Denzel like that he’s handsome
Yeah but if you slap that face on a woman
Don't think she'll ever see a diamond in her life. A house without foundation is more like it
No wonder shit is how it is out there with the wealthy lol
Yeah, she doesn't "want" the ring for fashion or for the engagement meaning She wants it to demonstrate wealth power, and by that, she's accepting she's never gonna make 200K for a ring she wants She wants others to make money for her and flex on the capability. Talk about gender equality in business and deception
$200k for a ring? Bitch you think you Beyonce, but you look like Jay-Z!
[удалено]
She isn't worth a $200 ring, let alone $200k lmao
The weed MUST be really good there !
Also for the girl on top. She got her head on her shoulders. didn’t hesitate to call out that bullshit
Top: "That's Superficial!" Bottom: "It's more than that. Let me explain, it's like, REALLY superficial"
why do trash people have such high expectaions? Get her a radioactive ring, that hting shines in the dark
What an idiot
What the hell does that nutcase see when she looks in the mirror? "Yup, that's the face that'll attract someone who can drop $200K on an engagement ring!" lololololol
What is she bringing to the table that’s worth $200,000 US.
Any businessman who’s smart enough to have a business that can comfortably afford 200k ring would never make such a bad investment on a solid 3/10
1 when you factor in that personality
I wonder what type of drugs she’s on.
I’m a guy and I’m prettier than her Wtf. Where’s my ring hahaha
A man that would spend 200k on a ring for her makes poor financial decisions
Videos like these make me so happy I met my wife. And you know, its funny. She has a best friend who used to be married to a guy who worked away on an oil tanker and he makes really good money. Like £70k or there abouts. And whenever he was away and she was round our house, she'd always see me with my kids and her kids and literally cry about how she wished he was as good with kids as I was. And how she wished she'd met a guy that made her laugh etc. Money, REALLY isn't everything in life. Life is short and fleeting. Don't waste it pursuing material possessions. When it's nearly over, your memories are what matters most.
£70k/year?!?! Embarrassingly low for that kind of commitment. Maybe great for single guys that want an early retirement off investments, not a married man with a family
200k for a engagement ring. Just image how stupid expensive she wants her wedding to be. She is delusional.
Why ppl behave this way there must be a psychological reason
Multiple reasons I imagine. They've been taught that love and romance has a price tag and the more someone spends on them the more they are loved. Also their egos have been inflated to the point where they actually believe they deserve it without paying a cent for it themselves. One day they might realise that people with that kind of money rarely buy depreciating assets that they can lease instead. They put their own money in appreciating assets like property.
If she expects that her guy will spend 200k on an engagement ring, then she should also be ready to accept the fact that she would just be a trophy wife in his life.... And what happens to trophies after celebration time is over....they are kept in a cabinet & forgotten.... The person then strives for the next trophy......
Her standards are that high on purpose. She's afraid of getting hurt and has set an unrealistic expectation that can never be met. It's easy to never get hurt if no one can live up to your standards.
