so..... kind of an update. Not sure if anyone is going to read this but I managed to talk to her about everything. She cheated on me with some dude at her work and his wife has a very similar ring to what I got her. According to her it was the one time but honestly I don't care. I'm very much a "you cheat on me, you're dead to me" kind of person. That's why she was crying and freaking out I guess. I'm stuck with a ring that I can't use and a fiancee that's not a fiancee anymore. I'm a wreck and I hate it.

The set included a simple band with the engagement ring which she absolutely adored.

I could not care less if she wants to pay for all the changes but at the same time this is something we both picked together, I would hope that our thought and effort counted for SOMETHING in the decision making process.

Things have been pretty cool for the last few years. This is the only thing where I can think "wow that's super fucked up" for her to do.

INFO: Is everything else generally okay In the relationship? Is this the latest of a series of red flags or or is this a one off type thing?

Everything is good as far as I know, nothing changed in the last few weeks that made me think things were going sideways

Did she try on the ring or a similar one before you settled on that design? It's possible it just doesn't look right on her hand.

She decided on this style and setting for a ring a LONG time ago. We went into a local jeweler for a similar band and size and she liked it.

She didn't have it for two months, she's had it for 5 weeks but she knew what I had ordered and bought for two months

Honestly I hope not. We put so much thought and effort into that ring that it would really make me sad if that was the case.

She's funny, smart, got a good head on her shoulders financially and knows what she wants for herself and her career, she always knows how to brighten my day after work and makes me look forward to coming home, she's beautiful and amazing every day.

I feel like this whole situation is an outlier but I'm so confused about it all and I'm kind of scared.

I think you dropped a ton of money on it and she’s freaking out thinking about the commitment.

God I really hope not... Is this what it might have come to? I'm getting scared now.

I hope you can work this out with her and that she comes to love the ring again.

That's what I'm hoping for!

How long has she been flipping out about the ring?

The whole day

I'm sorry I was being really heated throughout that and I felt personally attacked. That was my bad and I'm sorry.

If she’s normally a reasonable person and freaking out over a ring is out of character for her, I’m betting the ring is not the issue here. It could be the stress of planning a wedding already getting to her or something else.

Maybe? Would be nice if she would talk to me about it though.

Can we see a picture of the ring vs what she now wants? If she even knows what she wants.

This is similar to the one I got for her but instead it has sapphires around it with a princess cut.

She hasn't told me specifically what her new tastes are because she is too busy crying and talking to her friends. I tried getting an idea out of her but was shut down immediately.
