Why would a woman keep an engagement ring if they don't love you anymore?

If she broke off the engagement she should give you the ring back. If you want it back badly tell her if she doesn't return it you will sue her for breach of promise and emotional pain more than the ring is worth~

From what I understand of the engagement ring laws are that she is allowed to keep it because it was a gift to her. To my way of thinking, though, it represented a promise between the two of you, and when the promise wasn't fulfilled, the ring should go back to you. Seems the decent thing to do, unless of course, she paid for it.

Sounds like some miscommunication about the ring. You told her to keep it, she wanted to give it back, but then didn't. Maybe she thought you still wanted her to keep it. If you think you want it back, just ask her what her intentions are about the ring. I wouldn't read anything into it (that she still cares, that she's greedy, etc.) until you hear her response. I feel bad for you. Hope it works out however it's meant to be.

i have heard of trash the gown, yet no longer trash the hoop. i presumed it develop into classic to positioned on your e-ring alongside your wedding ceremony ring? it truly is what I plan on doing. i'd under no circumstances opt for to trash the hoop. My engagement ring is amazingly particular to me, and it would properly be worn commonplace - 24/7, in case you want. contained in the top, it is your selection, yet i do not extremely understand why. Trashing the hoop would provide you with far fewer pictures than trash the gown, and the images are not very nearly as straight forward to get... a minimum of a wedding ceremony gown would properly be wiped clean or repaired, yet in case you opt for that ring back, you're going to ought to do a touch serious digging.

According to you, she kept the ring because you told her to keep it. She is the one who asked if you wanted it back.

"Etiquette" states that if the marriage doesn't go through, the guy gets the ring back. If you get married, she gets to keep the rings.

It sounds like she isn't into you. You should move on.

Did you ever asked her what it was that you said that bothered her? That's communicating. She did ask you if you wanted the ring back. Since you said no, she might as well keep it. Maybe it does mean something to her, or she can always pawn it.

It is pretty selfish of her to keep the ring. Read the link I've attached. At the bottom of the page there is a section to addresses this issue. Good luck.

They keep it because they can pawn/sell it.

I know someone whose fiance dumped her (ring came first though) and she used the money from the ring to come down here to FL for a visit.

She's supposed to return the ring if she breaks off the engagement. You should accept it back regardless of her reason.
