Fhemmmy: It's a gift but you can't say a wedding ring is a gift It's more of a gift or a present, it's a bond/covenant between the both of them When that bond/covenant is broken, the ring should be returned. |

mama-gee: If that is your theory, that means when a man and a woman divorce, they will have to return the rings? Now to who? Say the woman bought both rings, cos the man paid for the wedding gown, and other stuff and when they got to the store to buy the ring, the used the credit card of the woman. Now they are are divorced, who do they return the rings to? |

Fhemmmy: If they are both divorced, then they should throw their rings away or keep it if they like it. Either of the couple may choose to keep their because of its gemstones, it still doesn't change the fact that the bond between both of them is broken. |

@ fhlemmy, and d rest of NL in d house, i am of the opinion that the lady returns the ring. cos when the ring remains with her and in the nearest future she experiences difficulty in family chanlenging situations like child bearing, misunderstanding between she and the other family members husband inclusive. she will be reminded that she has in her posssession a property of another man.( THE RING). the significant of this is that, when she was proposed to, a god called cupid has registered the union and if eventually it breaks up, that particular ring which was used to tie the knot to an extent must be return so that the woman will have herself free from any bondage and have a happy married life. remember, a RING is not like any other gift, its has words enclosed in it thats why it is round and have no end nor begining. |

Ajiwire: Na wa oh. So u mean if the ring is not returned, there are some spiritual effects? Can you prove this? |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by Fhemmmy: 11:12pm On Nov 24, 2009 |
mama-gee: Like u said, the bond btw them has been broken, but the gift of the ring cant be denied, and i am so convinced that the lady shd keep the ring, cos she never put her hands into the wallet of the man to force her to buy the ring, he bought of his own will cos he wanna marry the woman, so it is a gift to the lady and she shd keep it foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr |

Fhemmy I have to agree with Mama-gee and Michellin. An engagement ring is more than a gift. It’s a symbol of a promise. If the promise is broken, then the ring has lost is significant, it is only proper it be returned to the giver. In the case of divorce couples, it’s usually unnecessary to return the ring because in this case the ring is not a promise but a broken covenant. None of the couple is expected to still be wearing the ring or use it to consummate another relationship, neither would they want to sell it, because of it’s significant. So divorced couples only keep the ring as a reminder of broken covenant or they just throw it away |

Don’t also forget in engagement it’s only the man that gives out a ring, but in marriage they exchange rings. |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by Fhemmmy: 1:26am On Nov 25, 2009 |
OAM4J: Ok, for agreeing sake, what would happen, if the woman was the one that gave the money that was used in buying the ring |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by OAM4J: 1:37am On Nov 25, 2009 |
^^^Which one now, the engagement or the wedding ring? |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by Fhemmmy: 1:47am On Nov 25, 2009 |
the engagement ring |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by OAM4J: 2:03am On Nov 25, 2009 |
It is very wrong for a woman to buy herself the engagement ring…in my world men proposes marriage with an engagement ring. I have no respect/regard to a ring you buy for yourself because I propose to you. But since she bought it she can keep it, after all she bought/gave it to herself, so she owns it. Since the guy never gave it, he cannot collect it back. |

Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by imurboss: 3:49pm On Nov 25, 2009 |
the man should have the ring back since it didn't serve the original purpose it was meant to fulfill i.e sealing the relationship,i think it would keep giving the lady bad memories of that particular event so no point keeping it! |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by Fhemmmy: 4:57pm On Nov 25, 2009 |
chaircover: I never knew u cld be that mean oh. The ring was bought as a symbol and intent to be married and once the intent is broken, why giving it back, it is still a gift, whichever way you look at it. |
Re: Broken Engagement: Who Should Get The Ring? by Nobody: 6:55pm On Nov 25, 2009 |
If you don't want to marry the man then what exactly do you want to do with his engagement ring? keep wearing it till you marry someone else? or sell it ?( that's rather tacky and desperate). Even if he says you should keep it you'll have to give it out or something. |
