sabel777 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Real short story. My ex-fiance left me over two months ago. Since then I have written her letters, and tried to call her, but she has not responded...we have not talked since the breakup. However, she still has the engagement ring. Does it mean anything if she keeps the ring? Why would she keep the ring? Should I ask for it back? (The ring is significant to me because it is a symbol of my love for her.) Any insight, especially from a women, would be greatly appreciated. If you want more details I will provide.
suzanne2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Personally, I think she should give the ring back. I lived through a broken engagement and gave the ring back. It meant a promise and that promise was broken so I thought that it was only right to give the ring back. Same girls don't. I have a friend who kept the ring. If you want it back, then I think you sould ask for it back.
donnamaybe Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 She should give the ring back. She now has it NOT for the reason it was intended.
Geishawhelk Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I believe it is also a point of law (in most states) that the ring is yours ands that you are entitled, legally, to retrieve it. But check with a legal rep., before senidng her a registered letter asking, formally, that she return the ring.
samspade Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 She accepted the ring under the pretense that she would marry you. Since that is off the table, the ring is not hers to keep. You should politely ask for it back, and if she refuses, consider legal means if the ring means a lot/cost a lot. Consult a lawyer beforehand as Geisha suggested. Why would she keep the ring? Because she is low-quality. Doesn't sound like someone you would want to marry!
