Hawk it?
Toss it over a bridge?
Hide it at the back of your underwear drawer?
Save it for your kids?
Melt it down?
Have it remade?
 
I'm giving the diamond to my daughter when she turns 16, and the band to my son.

Why would you do that?

it's a symbol of his promise to you, unless it is your family heirloom, you give it back.


If you're the one who breaks it off, you give back the ring that was a symbol of the vow. If you weren't, spoils of war, baby.

Hmm...now I don't believe this. It was a gift...yes it was a symbol of a vow....BUT as a gift, I would think that it belongs to the person whose finger it has been attached to for years.


Broken engagements...yeah I can understand giving it back.
Broken marriages, though...

I had four of them but, I've lost two. Still wear the current one!:D

Question? If you have only been married three times...what were you doing with FOUR wedding rings?
 
Mine I still have in my jewelry box.

I keep it in a section with other "scrap gold" (one bracelet, two necklaces, and two other rings, etc) that I'll eventually have melted down one day into either a nugget or something.

As far as "sentimental value" goes.......it left when the judge gavelled the bench. lol

One wife bought me two!!:p

I think she wanted to stress the point I was married to her!!:D
 
I have two weddings bands from my ex husband...the one we married with, then the one we bought when we could afford more than 30 bucks and a marriage license!

I will be giving them to my children. Although they don't mean anything to me now, I did love their father at the time, very much. I hope they will cherish the bands for that reason.

Gave mine to goodwill, then threw away the receipt they give to use as a tax write-off.

Hopefully, it'll bring someone else more luck than I had with it.

Did she give hers back as well? and what did you/she do with them after they were given back?

No, she still wears her enagement. wedding and eternity rings sometimes, which I find both amusing and wierd.

Then again, I have great taste. They're lovely rings.

That is a little odd.

Did it cost you twice as much to lose her, too? ;)

Almost I had to fight that divorce in two states!! Fortunately I won and she ended up with less than I offered for an out of court settlement. She shouldn't have gotten greedy!!

My mum has started a new family tradition, she took the diamond from her mother's engagement ring and put it next to her diamond (same type and everything) so when she gives it to me to go and get me a wife, i'll stick another diamond on it.. etc etc.

Given that the divorce was her idea, yeah, it's a little strange.

But hey, she's a Montreal grrl and like I said, they're nice rings.
 
I hurled it off the deck of the USS Saipan in Norfolk basin...and before some says that was stupid you don't him....he had the nerve to want it to give to his new homewrecking whore OOPS I meant to say he wanted it to give to his next wife since he paid 5,000 for the set....I told him he wants it so bad swim for it,also to add the insult to injury she was my supposed best friend and they "hated" each other :rolleyes: damn I hate admitting I was young and stupid once but I guess we all were :nana:
Can you imagine if rivers and basins were drained the rings they would proably find :nana:
