He Broke Up With His Fiancée And Sold Her Engagement Ring But Now That They're Back Together She's Furious About What Happened To Her Ring

A 28-year-old man was in a relationship with his 27-year-old fiancée named Lauren for 3 years before things got ugly.

Last October, he purchased a very pricey engagement ring for Lauren, got down on one knee, and asked for her hand in marriage.

"Things were going well until there were some twists and turns in our professional lives and we postponed the wedding," he explained.

"This all caused a lot of fights. Two days before Christmas she gave me the ring back and we broke up."

One week after he and Lauren split, they decided to reconcile, though they didn't jump back into being engaged to one another.

They continued to maintain their relationship during January, even though things were not exactly right between them.

They didn't talk to one another a lot, and he was convinced that there was no way of really making things work long-term with Lauren.

So, he sold Lauren's engagement ring, since he thought it was all pointless.

"I decided to sell the ring, I didn't see the need to keep it to remind me of something that didn't work out and I could use the money to buy something useful," he said.

"In February things settled between us and we are getting back on track. On the 14th, I planned a romantic dinner and we exchanged gifts."

"The next day, Lauren said she felt a little disappointed that she didn't get her engagement ring back. I said that I had already sold the ring 3 weeks ago and that caused a big fight."

Lauren was furious with him for selling her engagement ring, and she genuinely believed that he was going to give it back to her at some point.

She even went so far as to accuse him of being a jerk for selling her engagement ring without even asking her first.

He didn't think that he had to ask Lauren about it at all since she was the one who returned the ring to him in the first place, so it was his property.

Additionally, he knows he is not going to be marrying Lauren anytime soon, so he thought he was in the clear to sell her ring.

He has discussed this tricky situation with several of his friends, but many of them think that he jumped the gun selling Lauren's ring.
