Does this make me materialistic?
My husband and I got married a year and a half ago and I still have never gotten a wedding band. I wear my engagement ring every day and I just want a little band to go along with it. I sent my husband a picture of the one I want last year, kind of dropping a very obvious hint. A few months later it was on sale, so he agreed to go ahead and get it, but then something came up and that money needed to go to something else.
We were both sitting together on our phones yesterday and I was scrolling through Facebook. A friend of mine got engaged and posted a picture of her ring, so it reminded me that I still want my wedding band. I asked my husband, just super casually, like in a playful manner, "so when do I get my ring?". His response, "why do you have to be so materialistic?".

Uuuhh...? It's not like I'm being bitchy about it or anything. I'm not acting like a snob at all. I just kind of want my wedding band that we had talked about getting. It's not even an expensive ring and it's not like we can't afford it either. Nothing is holding us back from being able to get it other than him not going to get it.

* Some of y'all need to read my post again lol. We CAN afford it! No problem there! ☺
*another few clarifications real quick. It's not that I didn't want my ring until I saw my friend's engagement. I have been wanting a ring since we got married. It's not like it's on my mind 24/7 though. When I said her post reminded me, it reminded me to bring it up to my husband because he was right there and we hadn't really discussed it since our plan to get it fell through. And yes, we can afford it now with no issues. All our bills are paid, we have money set aside for all necessities, and plenty of money left over that can buy the ring. When something came up that prevented us from buying the ring before, it took every penny we had left over. After everything was paid, we had the $300 for the ring and some extra money left for whatever. Then something big came up and all that money had to go towards that. And that was several months ago. We are more than fine now.
