My Stepson's Fiance Strokes Me for a Bigger Diamond - Jennifer White

My step-son is engaged to a maintenance girl. I warned him about her when they were dating, but he pretty much ignored my advice and asked her to marry him. She's the kind of girl who only wears name brand clothes, has more shoes than she could wear in a lifetime, and is going to end up breaking the poor boy's bank if he's not careful. It was no surprise when she accepted his proposal, but rejected the puny little diamond ring her offered her. When she showed up at my house the other day, while I was conveniently all alone, I knew something was up. She told me that the ring he bought her was too small for a girl like her, and if she were to wear that it would make my step-son look like a cheapskate. I can't show that ring to my friends, she said, it'll be embarrassing for him!
