My girlfriend threw away the box with the engagement ring right after I proposed to her, saying the diamond was too small, and that it was CHEAP and UGLY.

I felt broken and helpless in that moment. I had worked SO hard to afford it, and I genuinely loved the minimalist design. But her reaction crushed me.

I picked up the ring and left. Today, she’s been calling me constantly, saying she was just nervous. But honestly, I’m not interested anymore.
