Why won't my boyfriend give me a promise ring?
My boyfriend and I will have been dating for one year, next month. I told him my idea for our one year anniversary would be to exchange promise rings. He was firmly against this and said he didn't want to do anything like that. We are in love and he has told me that I am the one he wants and he couldn't picture his future without me in it. He had been gone with the military for seven months and returned just last month. I waited for him the whole time. Don't you think I've proved myself worthy enough for a promise ring?
My ex boyfriend wants the stuff he bought me back?
So i gave him some of the stuff back like a decoration for my room and a like mac eyeshadows I never use and he STILL won't leave me alone. I dont want to have to make it into some big legal thing with a restraining order and stuff but he's STILL infront of my house :/
If you break up with your boyfriend and he gave you a promise ring, do you give the ring back?
if he asked for it, return it & even if he hadn't, still return it. when my ex broke up with me, just 2 weeks prior, he ha bought me a diamond necklace. i returned it to him immediately because it was a representation of us being together (and not the money he paid for or the fact that it was flashy) & since it was over, there was no need to hold on to it. so just return it & move on. :)
What should I do with the promise ring my ex boyfriend gave me?
My boyfriend gave me a promise ring for our one year anniversary (actually he gave it to me at 9 months because he was leaving for school soon). When he gave me the ring he promised that he would always be there for me, to stay true, to always love me and to marry me one day. Everything was great then, but after a year and 3 months, I broke up with him. He went to school and changed so much, and it was just kind of like my love for him just slid away. I wasn't happy anymore either, and I didn't want to fake my way through a relationship just to make him happy when it was hurting me. But anyways! It's been 3 months since we broke up and he already has a new girl friend. What should I do with the promise ring he gave me? It's really pretty - silver with a ruby and two small diamonds. People say it looks like an engagement ring- but just with a ruby. Should I keep it? And if I keep it can I wear it, just to wear it? Or should I just put it away somewhere? Or should I give it back?
Help! Boyfriend gave me ex's promise ring!?
After 2 years my boyfriend recently gave me a promise ring. to promise to me he will soon ask for my hand in marriage. The ring however has history. It is from one of his old relationships. His ex had bought him this ring And given it to him when he asked her to marry him. she gave him this promise ring in return for him to wear. It has been years since they split up, and now he has given the ring to me as his promise to me to one day ask me to marry him. When I asked why he reused this ring he said he wanted to give me a promise ring nut couldn't afford to buy me my own and thought since he has no feelings for the past he could reuse the ring to promise a future with me. This should be a happy moment but somehow I feel confused about the ring. Is it bad luck to reuse a promise ring from his ex? Is it wrong of me to wear this ring she once bought him? I am getting bad feedback when ppl ask me where he got me this ring. Is it tacky or cheap of him? I can't help but think he didn't consider my feelings. Am I wrong or over reacting? when I wear the ring I feel let down that this is not how i imagined he would give me my first ring. knowing a women his past bought it for him. What should I do? I think it's wrong to start our promise this way. I think I deserved better then this but he doesn't understand.
My boyfriend gave me a promise ring, but i wanted to break up. now what?
We have been together just over a year and a half. I have been considering ending the relationship as we have very little in common and dont see eye to eye on hardly anything. At the beginning he was just a date and it was fine, i wasn't attracted to him but that too didn't really matter to me. Now we have gotten to know each other and I care very much about him and wish we had been friends. I have tried to break up with him a few times, but he always wants to know specifically why I want to break up. I've tried to tell him its just that we have differences but he wont accept it. I have been careful not to tell him i am not attracted to him, as this would upset him a great deal, but what else can i do? I dont want to lead him on, but i dont want to hurt him either. I am so stuck here! If anyone has some good ideas please share them, thanks.
If my boyfriend gets me a promise ring, should i get him something in return?
Promise rings are just extra bling for your finger. (Right one, not the left though). The left ring finger is supposedly where a blood vessle goes directly to the heart, which is what pumps blood throughout your body. If it lasts, hold out for an engagement ring, which will go on the left finger.
If your ex asks you to return the jewelry that was bought for you during your relationship, are you obligated to return it?
If it is a family heirloom or an engagement ring it needs to be returned. Those should not be kept by a woman under any circumstances if she breaks up with the guy.Equally I think if a woman asks for expensive jewellery then it should be returned. However that for me is more a personal choice in how I believe people behave.Explanations;Heirlooms - they never really belong to anyone they are merely kept for the next generation. To keep a mans ring that has been passed down in his family is not to deny him but to deny his future children. That needs to go back to him so he can continue to pass it down. It doesn’t belong to you or him but to his future generations. Hence that has to go back. It would be highly crass behaviour to keep it. It is also theft from children not yet born. Who does that? You would have to be a pretty awful person to do that. So don’t.Engagement rings - These signify a contract to marry. If you do not marry then you have broken the contract. It is only right that this goes back if the agreement to marry is not carried through. The same way an employer no longer pays your wages when you quit if you turn the man down then you also remove the ring and give it back. An engagement ring is a symbol of love and that love is no longer there so give it back and move on.Jewellery that has been asked for - Again this is a bit crass to ask for it and you should never expect another person to buy you things just because you want them. So if you are a woman who tells their men “I want diamonds” well those diamonds should go back to him when you break up. This is because the jewellery is brought under the presumption that you will be staying together. Again as in the case of the engagement ring its a form of contract and you should not expect to keep the benefits if you don’t keep the man…However if it is a gift that is given without prompt or request then no. The gift was given to you and as such belongs to you. It is no different to them buying you flowers or an item of clothing. So in that case its OK to keep it and it should not be returned.
My ex boyfriend gave me gifts. Now, he is so bitter that he wants all the clothes & stuff that he gave me back. Is he right? He wants to go to my house to get all of it back.
I’ve had this happen a few times, and generally I gave the requested items back. I didn’t have to, and they were legally mine, but for the most part, I just didn’t want the reminders of my ex, nor did I want the things my ex gave me if it meant contributing to greater acrimony between us.Usually, I just don’t want anything from them that badly. I also usually don’t let people give me many gifts, so the items involved are frequently fairly minor, so it’s not that important to keep them.An exception, with my most previous ex, was the engagement ring. I gave that back because I decided that if he was tacky enough to ask, he could have it.In my opinion, it said more about him than me.
