I don't actually know the answer, but my guess is that the guy should get it back.

I can see reasons for the girl keeping the ring, but it doesn't seem right to me.

I thought only crack fiends and compulsive gamblers pawned things. Couldn't you have gotten a lot more for it on eBay or by putting a classified in the paper?

Yes but I wanted the cash right away. The other two options require more work and they wouldn've taken too long.

From a legal standpoint he gets the ring.

Depends on the State this occurs in.

what legal standpoint is that?

[/ QUOTE ]

Gift in Anticipation of Marriage/ Breach of said condition. Recognized in some states but not all.

Also, its not that simple, as the fact that the guy cheated may itself be a breach of the condition, thus not allowing him to get the ring back.

Probably the fact that he can document his claim to ownership with a receipt and she cannot.

To me this is irrelevant. If I broke off the engagement or if she did I wouldn't want it back. What the hell are you going to do with the thing? Selling it would involve more pain, and I am probably too damn lazy to get around to doing it. I would rather walk out on a high note and not argue about silly crap like who owns the ring.

If you spent thousands of dollars on a ring, and the girl broke off the engagement, you wouldn't want the ring back to recoup some of that money? Assume that you've followed whatever the rule is and spent 3 months salary on the ring (I think thats what you're supposed to spend, although it could be 6).

a guy and a girl are engaged for 8 months as part of a 4 1/2 year relationship.

the guy cheats on the girl and it appears that the relationship will no longer continue due the the wishes of the girl, the guy wants to work things out.

from a non legal standpoint, is the girl entitled to keep the ring if the guy wants it back or should she return it to the guy?

[/ QUOTE ]


why would she want it?
