[quote=Anonymous]OP clearly has expectations about her engagement ring that don't seem to match up with her BFs, and it sounds like the BF is trying to caution her about what to expect.  But the real question is: in what other ways do their expectations about life differ?  What happens when it comes time to buy a house, have children, etc? Is OP doing to expect a certain lifestyle that the BF just can't give her, or is not a priority for him?  These are the issues OP should be worried about, not the size of her engagement ring.

I understand wanting a nice ring, but I do not understand the entitlement that some women have about it.  I never expected a certain type or size of ring from my then-BF, now DH.  It was his money and his ultimate decision.  He took my opinions into consideration when it came to the cut of the stone, but we never discussed what size I wanted.   In my experience, women who EXPECT expensive rings also expect their DHs to provide a certain lifestyle for them.  I never had that expectation of my DH so maybe that's why I don't understand the expectations associated with engagement rings. [/quote]
