If you have really refused the marriage proposal for offering dowry by the parents of the girl, I appreciate your vision. You have a great and real heart. You are not fool; rather you are wise.
But my dear friend, the money was shown by the parents of the girl; not by the girl herself. What was the wrong with the girl if she was otherwise she was good, marriageable and matching for you?
According to me, if the girl was otherwise acceptable, you should have married her refusing the dowry.
If without dowry you would have married the girl, your image at your in-laws house would have been very high. And your wife could have prouder of you.
