If you're silly enough to let her keep it, then more fool you.Originally posted by Unix View PostI always thought the receiver of the engagement ring kept the ring if it broke off?

But the more cunning lady would simply sell it ... not her underwear draw, I mean the ring. She could probably rent the draw to MF but that is a whole 'nother court case.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostPay MF to retrieve it next time he's rifling through her underwear drawer.Comment

So if you follow etiquette you do not get the ring back and you are fool. If she does not follow etiquette (or does not know/agree with that) then you do not get the ring back which means you are a fool.
How do get the ring back if she does not offer it?
You could overpower her and take it in which case you have the ring and are not a fool but surely you would be arrested for theft?Comment
