The uploader expressed her heartfelt sentiments about the engagement ring she received from her boyfriend, valued at P299. She expressed her disappointment in receiving a cheap ring from a popular online shopping website.

Recently, the Facebook page “COGAN Lakwatsero” shared a statement of the alleged man behind the P299 engagement ring issue. The post elicited comments from the internet users.
The guy clarified that it was an ‘engagement ring’ and not a wedding ring. He explained that he was the breadwinner of their family and still had responsibilities, such as supporting his sibling’s education.
He further explained that he could buy an expensive ring but chose to prioritize his responsibilities, reiterating that love doesn’t have a price and he wasn’t born into a rich family.
The man did not expect his partner’s reactions regarding the engagement ring and admitted that he was hurt by those who were judging him. His world fell apart due to the issue.
The issue served as a realization for him to break up with his current girlfriend and cancel their wedding plans. He will start moving on, even though it is painful.
