[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Homes in this area are expensive. You won’t be able to find homes for under $1 million in most areas. [/quote]

OP here. I spent most of my life living frugal to share for big investments like a house, wedding, and kids. I was raised middle class. My parents lived below their means, and taught my brother and I the importance of saving money and living within your means. I love comfortably but I save 90% of what I make.

We are looking in Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church, etc., and I know that we will need to spend money to get a house we want. We talked about a 3-4bd house with a nice yard. Now she says we need a 5-6 bd house. [/quote]

I love people like you Op. You did the right thing saving money and clearly you understand money. Now you are engaged to someone who has values that are the opposite of yours. It sounds like she grew up thinking this way and now that you are engaged she thinks she owns you and is letting you see who she truly is. Marriage only makes these situations worse. The expectations from each partner become just more.[/quote]
