  3.  @carultch  He would probably get it back in that case, except in Montana, where an engagement ring is an unconditional gift. If she was still married, their wedding wasn't legal, so....

  4. Nah, that's from back in the day when engagement rings weren't so ridiculously expensive. My mom's wasn't even a quarter carat. It's still uncommon in the UK to have big diamonds.

  7. In most states, it's the man's property until the wedding, in spite of all of these celebrities who keep the multi-million dollar ring after they dump their sucker boyfriends.

  8. Ikr? Where I live, it's a downpayment on a nice house. When I got married, I opted for the less expensive ring and we bought the house. We still live there, 26 years later.

  9. I have. A man was trying to sell a ring that he paid $7,000 for because the jewelry store wouldn't take it back. Diamonds are a sucker's bet. I say that as a woman. My engagement ring was a tourmaline.

  10. They can't usually take what you had prior to the marriage, nor what you inherit. Not even in California. Stop thinking that tv sitcom "law" is real, or that guys complaining on YouTube know what they're talking about.

  11. In most states, the ring is considered a conditional gift, so if there's no wedding, he gets the ring back.
