Giving back a ring after 5 years of marriage?

My husband and I were engaged for a year, and married for 5. He cheated on me, and I am having a hard time staying in the marriage.We are considering separation, then divorce. My engagement ring was his grandmothers. He has not even mentioned wanting it back, we are still wearing our rings, but I feel I will be taking it off soon, should I give it back to him?

Being a divorced woman myself, I know that right now you have a million things running through your mind. I would suggest not making any rash decisions right now. Hold on to the ring and sort things out first. You can always give it back at a later time if you feel like you should.

Save it for your kids if you have any. If you don't then you should give it back since it's a family heirloom and you no longer will be part of the family.

Since the ring is his grandmother's ring~ yes I would indeed return it.

I think you should give it back to him if he wants it. It was his grandmothers therefore it should stay in HIS family.

i wouldnt even if he asked ,he said i do and promised you a forever,he cheated, not you. you dont owe him anything except good bye and always remember you deserve better!

He gave (not loaned) it to you. Maybe if you had broke up before you were married then you should give it back. But after wearing it that many years it is yours.

It belongs to you. He gave it to you. Pass it on to your child(ren).

If there are no kids to pass it down too then I would.

since it is his grandmother's, then it is a family heirloom and I believe it should be returned to his family

ONLY because it was his grand mother's. If he bought it I would say don't give it back..But because it's a family thing..I suggest you do the right thing and give it back...If you have children maybe your children can use..if NOT please give it back..

You shouldn't have to give it back to him. Remember he gave it to you. You don't return gifts after time do you. But if you feel ou don't want to keep it then by all means let him have it. After all he's the one that made the mistake.


DeAnna
He gave it to you it's yours, if you no longer want it you can sell it, or give it back.


☆Zestee☆
I wouldn't. It was given to you regardless of who it belonged to before.

It's up to you. He gave it to you. If you're not going to need/want it, then I would give it back just to be nice.


califababy25
No, the ring is yours, hes the one that mest up not you, so there for the ring is yours.

I think thats totally your decision. I don't think you are obligated to give it back. I don't think I would.


huckypeep2
I would because of his family connection to it and it will do you no good any ways.


lady_phoenix39
No. Put it away and keep it for your daughter if you have one.....and if you don't, put it in a box. He needs to understand that his behavior has serious consequences.
