So I work with this girl--shes nice and we get along, but she is very immature. She cheats on her boyfriend of 2 years constantly, with guys who she thinks have a lot of money, I guess in hopes that they will buy her something...I have no idea. She was crushed when the guy she most recently cheated (who told her that he is an investment banker with jp morgan..but lied) with flat-out rejected her. So she talks all the time about how she can''t stand her boyfriend and wants to break up. Then I started talking about my plans with my bf--who I do not cheat on and love dearly. And suddenly, she wants to marry her bf! She kept cheating on him but also started pressuring him to buy her a ring and really took all of the fun out of the whole process (for both of them). She told him that if he couldn''t buy her a 2 carat solitare (which was always her *dream* ring) that she didn''t even want a diamond. He couldn''t afford that, so she said that she would settle for a gold scroll ring (I do think she convinced him that she would love the thing). She is suddenly demanding that she be engaged before Christmas (which incidently is around when it will happen for my bf and I). Well she found out recently that her bf had not even ordered the gold scroll ring yet and that it was not available bc it''s no longer in production. So now, out of the blue, she wants an emerald cut, 3 stone ring.... JUST LIKE MINE.
I know that I should be flattered by all of this, but its really sad to watch. Her bf has no idea that she cheats on him and always talks about breaking up with him. She was upset that he didnt propose last week and said "oh well...i was looking forward to having a new piece of jewelry"...and what''s worse is that she has asked me to be in her wedding. Her flippant attitude about marraige makes me feel like she is trivializing the HUGELY important, life-changing decision that my bf and I have made together.
