Woman admits she cried after her boyfriend's proposal because she hated her engagement ring so much

Engagement rings are a lifelong fashion statement — which is why everyone has a very different style. Some women prefer princess cut, while others want an oval shaped diamond.

One former bride was so intent on getting a halo-style diamond, she rejected her now-husband's original engagement ring and demanded he buy another one.

Speaking to TikTok, user @beefinnagain admitted she "hated" her wedding ring and wasn't afraid of admitting this to her husband, Patrick.

"Patrick and I dated for like a good bit of time and the whole time we dated I was like, in the marriage headspace and I was like, 'Pat, I want a ring with a halo'. I want the little diamonds around the main ring. That's what I want," she explained.

"I kept emphasising. I was like, 'I don't care about the size of the diamond. I don't care about clarity or cut. I literally don't care. I just want a halo around the little inside diamond'."

Eventually, Patrick got down on one knee and proposed. However, it wasn't with the ring she wanted.

It was a princess cut diamond with no halo — which the woman described as "beautiful" but not her dream ring.

"After he proposed, I literally went home and my mum was like, 'Do you like the ring?' And I bawled. I said, 'No I hate it so much and I'm going to have to wear it forever'," she went on.

"My mum [said], 'after like five years you can ask him to replace it'. It lasted a week because literally when you're engaged, everyone's like, 'is it the diamond you wanted? Like, is it perfect? Do you love the ring?'"

"And every time I had to be like 'yeah.' And then I would go and cry because it's just not what I wanted."

The woman said she called her then-fiancé a week later and delivered the difficult news.

"I like called him and was like, 'hey, this is gonna be a hard pill to swallow. I hate the ring. It's just not what I wanted and I'm willing to wait for something that I do want, but I just need you to know that'," she said.

Patrick accompanied her to a ring shop where the coupled picked out another ring, one that the woman now happily wears.

"All's well in the world, he was able to get a refund and like, swap it out. And it was fine," she added.

"Then I made him pay double on the new ring because he took me to the store and I told him what I liked. So anyway, we're still happily married and he still knows I'm very opinionated."

In a follow-up video, the woman also admitted she also "hated" her proposal, which took place in an airport.

Patrick had booked her a flight to see him, but he surprised her at the airport front desk with flowers and a ring.

"I looked in, dead-a--- in the eyeballs, and I said: 'In an airport?'" she said. "I did say yes, we did get married."

"Girl I'm sorry but that is THE WORST PROPOSAL I EVER HEARD!!!!! I'd rather be proposed to at Disneyland," one person said.

"I mean… you weren't wrong… but you certainly weren't grateful," another added.
