If you think money expresses what you are worth, you are worth nothing.

my (now) husband once gave me a gold promise ring. must've cost arount 70 too, but it was all the money he had and it made me feel like a queen.

How can anyone be so materialistic? The gesture alone is worth a million.

Sounds like he paid too much

I worked for a fine jewelry store and once helped a customer that dropped $1500 on fresh water pearl earrings, necklace and bracelet for his girlfriends birthday. She was back two days later returning all of them saying "I told him I wanted a Persian Cat for my birthday. But of course he gets me this junk instead." I leaned into the manager after she left and said "Probably because he knew a fine set of jewelry doesn't need to be fed or brushed. Plus the jewelry doesn't leave hair and hairballs everywhere and won't destroy your furniture by clawing it and crapping all over it."

not a keeper at all...

Wow, this sounds like a really sad relationship! And makes you wonder what the last gift was she gave "her man", if ever she did give him anything...

Apparently she can be bought just not for 70$?

What does the man see in her?

This is so beyond stupid. He didn't HAVE to get you anything.

I hope that poor guy runs away very, very fast.

your guys will be much more happier without you. i hope he saw that post you gold digger

I feel guilty af asking for $1.50 to buy ramen, then there's this girl.

he better dump you

Word of advice, Dude. Kiss this b*tch goodbye.

Hm, let's do the math. +70 (from selling) + Your Worth In Money. . .hm, I'm not a mathematician, but I'd say that results in a profit of about $70.

Ungrateful b***h

Anyone remember True Lies, where Jamie Lee Curtis has her ring on backwards and smacks the bad girl and it cuts the bad girl's cheek open? That should happen here.

I've got a phillipino peso you can be the boss of.....??

If she's mad that he spent a reasonable $70 for that ring, she should do the right thing and give him his money back.

Could have gotten u nothing. Be grateful he did s**t at all. Relationships are even, shouldnt be based on how much he pays u b***h.

They are out there. When I was single I met a good looking girl and we planned to go out. She got sick (very bad cold/flu) so we talked on the phone a few times as she was getting better. The last time I called her she said she just got a birthday present from her ex-husband and could hardly wait to open it so she could see how much he thought she was worth. That was the last time I called her.

Maybe she should quote the guys her prices up front?

If you only appreciate expensive things, maybe you need to date someone else. You should give him the ring back and let him find someone with a similar view about life. You can get someone whose only values can be purchased. That might make you both happy enough.

obviously she's not "pricey=nicey" at all

Greedy AND a phony...? What a keeper!

I can't stand girls like this one. Why tf does it matter how much something cost or how big the ring is. I don't do jewelry or purses and my husband knows that so when he picked my ring out he got a little one because before he proposed I NEVER wore a ring so I didn't want a big a*s ring that would bother me. People have made jokes cause it's little and it has bothered my husband but I don't bite my tongue, I will tell you about your self and that's what I did with everyone who had something to say. I told them he got what I WANTED not what he wanted to get me because I really CAN NOT stand jewelry for some reason, it just bothers me the way it feels. Women need to stop expecting so damn much. My husband spent $1200 but if he only spent $12 it wouldn't have bothered me cause I'm not going to expect something big because that's what every other woman is getting or that's what the "norm" is since today's society worry's about what others say.

You're not worth $70, you're actually worthless, such ring is too expensive to be given to a scumbag like you, lemme have your boyfriend's number

Women like that make me wanna hulk smash 😤 the fact he went out of his way to put thought into something romantic and thoughtful in his eyes is worth more than a damn dollar sign

I know it takes all kinds to make the world go 'round, but day-um, c**p like this really ticks me off! you ungrateful, gold-diggin' little witch!

Why are "promise rings" a thing? How many more "romantic relationship rings" do we need to make up?

Hope he wises up and decides the promise needs a take-back! Poor guy. Women like this are why we are inundated with the dang jewelry commercials this time of year. Ungrateful witch.
