‘Entitled brat’ gets trolled after she asks how to reject boyfriend’s proposal because she hates the ring he bought
A WOMAN has been mercilessly trolled after she slammed a ring she thinks her boyfriend is planning on using to propose to her.
But it’s not the snooping that people were stunned by, but rather her unfiltered reaction to the bling she discovered.
The anonymous woman found the diamond ring in her boyfriend’s nightstand, although it’s not clear if she was purposely looking or just happened to stumble upon it.
But she wasn’t happy with what she found when she opened the box and took to Facebook to ask what she should do.
“Ewwww, self shame Friday here I come,” she wrote.
“Found this in the boyfriend’s nightstand. Not a fan. Please roast and then tell me how to tactfully say ‘no you need to get something different’.”
She then shared a snap of the ring, which features three stones that appear to be diamonds on a silver band.
Her post was then reshared in a Facebook group where people were left in disbelief over her attitude towards to ring.
One person commented: “Spicy opinion of the day: Buy your own got damn ring or shut up. Expensive engagement rings as a concept are weird and cringe.”
“Imagine being that selfish/heartless,” a second wrote, while another slammed: “Not a fan of entitled brats.”
Another added: “I cannot imagine how horrible someone has to be to find something that was bought for them out of extreme love and to then encourage thousands of strangers to ‘please roast’ it.
“Also, it’s a lovely ring.”
Meanwhile, another pointed out that she doesn’t even know if the rings is for her and she could be massively jumping the gun.
And some people agreed the ring wouldn’t be to their taste, but agreed she was wrong to publicly mock it.
“It wouldn’t be my choice either, but I wouldn’t say no, I would just upgrade in 5 or 10 years,” they wrote.
“Idk if I’m in the minority here, but before he proposed my husband made a point of finding out what ring styles I liked,” someone else chimed in.
“That being said, if he hadn’t, and he had worked hard to pick out something he thought I would like, I would not have turned him down based on the ring selection.
“She seems like someone who gets married just to have a wedding.”
And others noted they picked their own ring to avoid sissapointmetn too.
£My husband let me pick my own because I’m hard to buy for. I’m fussy. He had coloured stones in mind and I wanted clear (didn’t care about what the stone was – just clear).
“I’m very grateful I was afforded the chance to have a say in something I’ll be wearing forever.
“The attitude this person has though is disgraceful.”
How to pick the perfect engagement ring
Picking the perfect engagement ring can be tough.
For a lot of people it’s the most precious, not to mention the most expensive piece of jewellery they own – so getting it right can be the difference between saying ‘I do’ and calling it quits.
Look at the style of jewellery they already wear
There are loads of different styles of rings you can go for, but if you have a rough idea of what your partner likes can can start to narrow things down.
If they only own silver jewellery it’s best to stick to that when buying an engagement ring, for example.
Get the size right
You can try and secretly measure your partner’s ring finger, but that’s risky buisness.
Instead you can measure to diameter of a ring they already own and wear. Or if you’re still not sure, take one to a jewellers, let them know which finger they wear it on and they should be able to work out which size is best to go for.
Ask friends and family
If you’re still in doubt about what style of ring to go for, consult your partner’s friends and family.
Chances are they’ll have already discussed the type of rings they like with their friends, so they can help you out.
