Can't I just punch myself in the face to demonstrate my love and call it a proposal instead?

Use that money to improve the honeymoon instead of an artificially expensive rock?

No, because the wealth and status on display is exactly the point for some women. Especially with social media it becomes a competition to get the most. It's honestly not that far from how some men really like to show off their expensive car as a sign of success.
