Meghan Markle: "We're two people who are really happy and in love"

Your post is funny to me because you’re implying that not forming emotional bonds to jewelry is materialistic. In reality, forming emotional ties to things is the hallmark of materialism.

She screams high maintenance to me.

Push present?

DH upgraded my $25k yellow diamond engagement ring to a $40k yellow diamond ring after I had our second child. His mother and sisters nearly died of envy and went around bashing me as materialistic. You sound like them. In reality, upgrading was DH’s idea and he bought the new ring without even telling me. Some of you women are so unhappy when other women have anything nice.

That is materialistic.

That is materialistic.

That is their relationship, their nuances, their love-language, their money, and their business.

I'm not sure it was a huge upgrade. It just looks like a band change on the e-ring and another band.

To the PP - you had a $25K e-ring and your husband bought you a $40K one? I mean, must be nice to be rich? Just because it was your husband's idea doesn't mean it isn't straight up materialism.

You're worth more now that you birthed 2 children for him?

Just the face that the PP drops the actual VALUES of the original rind/upgraded ring proves she is materialistic AF. I'm glade she found a husband who seems to be as well!

lol

not quite twice as better as her pre-child self - but close to it . . .

I'd rather use the money toward college, but I'm sure PP will come back with - "We already have college pre-paid b/c my husband makes LOADS of money."

ha!

They probably do.
Newsflash: some people have it good.

PP here. Hey, if that’s what you want to project onto a nice gift, that’s your baggage to carry.

PP here. Lol. We already have large college funds for our kids because we BOTH make a lot of money. I’m a well educated professional and still working. Imagine that. Women work nowadays.

PP here. No doubt you’ve taken a vow of poverty and eat one meal a day, with the remainder of your income going to orphans. I will aspire to spend my money how you see fit from now on, starting with no more nice jewelry.

Did you have it evaluated? Is it real? Maybe the upgrade was from real to fake? Have heard this happening.
