[quote=Anonymous]This reminds me of my SIL, who is in many ways a wonderful woman, but she is very materialistic. She refused to get engaged until her boyfriend bought a ring of her desired size. Now, 10 years later, she getting divorced - in part because she was never able to reconcile her wants to their budget. She ran up her credit cards again and again, and her husband finally got tired of paying them off (this was not the only issue, but a big one). Your fiancee may not have the same relationship to things/money, but you should think carefully about whether this is a one-off issue where a little compromise on both sides would settle things (you come up a little on budget if possible, she comes down a little on size) or a symptom of larger problems.[/quote]
