If you broke up. Should you give the ring back or not ?


Question: I broke up w/ my g/f, and she said that she will give me back the ring. Is it wrong to ask for it back since I still owe over $3,000 on it ? Or should she pay for it ? or keep it ?
Answers: Yes she should. If she doesnt return it. sue her or make her pay the bill. if you talk to her and she says she going to give it make. make her. if not sue her.
You should totally get it back, and probably get rid of it again, because I don't think it would be a good idea to give it to your next lucky lady.
Take it back, pawn it, pay off the outstanding amount.
She should definitely give it back. And if she doesn't, send her the bill.
The ring is a gift and she doesn't have to give it back legally. Consider yourself lucky if she does give it back and you can still return it or get part of your money back. What ever you do don't keep it and give it to another woman.
Pawn it off.
The correct action would depend on who broke up with who.
If she broke up with you, she is morally obligated to return the ring. If you broke up with her, she can keep it. If it was mutual, well I would think that she would give it back as she took part in the decision too.
And if it turns out that you broke up with her and she keeps it, it's still your responsibility to pay the bill bub, sorry.
you've given it so just leave it with her...let her keep it and have memory from you..
Yikes, if I were the girlfriend, I'd definitely give the ring back. Why would she want a keepsake of a failed relationship? Ick. I don't think it's rude of you to ask, either.
I don't think its wrong at all. You paid for it and it was a gift. good luck.. try to explain to her that you still owe on it.
why would you wanna keep it if it reminds you of your previous love? get rid off ot and get ready for a new experience
depends on how much it is worth
No it sounds like you should get the ring back and hope you can return it $3,000 is a lot to be paying when you 2 are not an item anymore OR give her the choice of paying it off of course then you have to hope she does pay it off it's your credit after all Good Luck
Hmm- I feel it depends on the relationship- and how you guys are ending it. If you are upset.. and feel like she is wrong, or vice versa.. then I say yes. Or- if you no longer want anything to do with her-- or vice versa- I say yes.

If-- you guys are going to be just on a break .. or just upset right now .. etc.etc.. Then-- hold off on giving the ring back. BUt Like I said- It depends on the relationship, and also on how you guys are right now..

If you are going to take it back- sell it- pawn it or something- but nothing is tackier than giving someone else .. someone ELSE's ring..

If you dont want anything to do with eachother-- OR-- you just want to be friends and not have any additional ties..then just take it back, get your $$ back, and buy yourself something to make YOU happy.. afterall- breaking up is a hard process to go through.
to be fair i think you should
Yes, she should give the ring back since your relationship is over.
Yes get the ring back. It was an engagement ring right? You gave the ring on promise of marriage. Marriage didn't take place, contract not fulfilled, you get ring back. Legally anyway.
get it back from her and get your money back for it if u can,
if you broke up with her than no you should not ask for it back but since you owe on it i would tell her you owe on it and make some kind of agreement
do you want to who broke up with who were they sweet or not and why did you brake up just think of that and if the outcome is positive than give it bake if it's negative than keep it, just only wear it on special occasions to show that you're now available.
Depending on who called off the wedding, the bride may or may not want to give back the engagement ring. However, the classiest move in this situation would be to return the ring to the groom, if he is the one who bought it and presented it to the bride. Keeping the ring would only bring back bad memories of a wedding that never happened. However, if it was a joint purchase or if you would like to know what your legal right is to the ring, consult a state attorney with your situation. If she wants to keep the ring she should pay you the remaining $3000.00 and whatever payments you have already made.
GET IT BACK!! Especially if you still owe money on it!! There are some places like Kay's that will do a return/exchange and you can get something for yourself
If the ring was just a gift, she is not obligated to return it. If it was an engagement ring, that is a different story. An engagement ring is a part of a contract and if you were to sue for it's return, you would most likely be granted judgement.
It's not wrong to ask for it back in any circumstance especially if you are still making payments on it, she may be liable for future payments. BTW get any agreement you may come to in writing.
GET IT BACK-
the law actually says that who ever broke the relationship, does not get to keep the ring.Since you still owe money on the money you should definitely take her to court for it.
You should diffently get the ring back and then sell it. No woman would want a ring that was given to another woman plus there that bad karma associated with the ring.
I would keep the ring.
Legally she does not have to give the ring back.

And because you broke up with her she should be allowed to keep it (morally). You can ask her though what she is planning on doing with it - if she plans to pawn it ask for it back kindly while explaining how you still owe on the ring. If she is planning on turning the ring into a necklace or earrings - then let it go and let her keep it.

Unfortunately the ball is really in her court because you broke up with her. And not only that you're going off of morals not a law.

Good luck!
An engagement ring is a legal contract to get married. If you are not getting married she owes it back to you. If it is not an engagement ring and was given as a gift, well in legal court you are screwed. Hopefully she is nice enough to give it back if you ask.
I always gave mine back to them because I didn't want them having any ammo on me
If you went to a court of law and asked the judge the same question you would be told you get the ring back unless she wants to pay for it. If the wedding is off the ring goes back simple as that.
