Today, my boyfriend and I went shopping for an engagement ring. We ended up breaking up in the process. FML

"Do you like this diamond?" "I was thinking of getting moissanite instead." "YOU'RE A MONSTER. IT'S OVER!" Something like that?

Need more information before I can come to a conclusion.

Not everyone does that. Mature couples can pick out the ring together. He can pick it up later and surprise her when he wants to

The whole diamond ring thing is a scam by DeBeers to sell diamonds

Discussion of marriage and shopping for an engagement ring to break up is a sharp turn. Some elaboration would be nice.

who goes to pick out their own engagement ring?

Among others, most people in Sweden. I'm from Belgium so it was weird for me, but I went to pick out an engagement ring with my bf. It's not that weird.

You just contradicted yourself.

Think of it as a positive, Op. Better now than later.

Try calling him and working it out? Something like that can put a lot of stress on someone.
