Man Calls Off Wedding After His Fiancee Refused To Accept An Engagement Ring Formerly Owned By His Ex
When you have a good relationship, usually, the next step is to solidify things by proposing marriage to your partner. There are several things to consider when taking this step, including picking the right engagement ring.
Engagement rings are a symbol of love and commitment. That’s why people go to many lengths to ensure they get suitable rings for their partners.
With civilization and the evolution of fashion, there are multiple choices available for people to choose from. They have to consider the preferences of their partner and their financial capabilities.
Some people, however, are lucky because they don’t have to think about the ring to give their partner, as they have a family heirloom for that exact purpose. We found a man on Reddit who didn’t have to worry about the ring to give to his partner.
He decided to give his girlfriend a ring he had given his ex. Unfortunately, things didn’t go according to plan, so we have this story to share!
His fiancé, who had shared the original story on the AITA subreddit, shared that they had broken up afterward, as he didn’t like that she had put it up on Reddit.
She also revealed that he had gotten into a new relationship a month later. You already know Redditors sure had a lot to say on this matter.
