How can I keep my engagement ring after calling it off
Asked on Dec 01st, 2016 on Breach of Contract - Connecticut
More details to this question:
My ex fiancé gave me a ring and moved me out of state with the promise of marriage and stability and 2 years later changed his mind but told me to keep the ring in front of our friend, now I'm moving out and want to know if I can sell it to regain some of what I've lost such as apt and vehicle.

Regardless of who would get to keep the ring in the event of a break up, which can be a complicated question (particularly since you got the ring while residing in one state and broke up while residing in another), your ex unconditionally gave you the ring/waived any right to the ring AFTER the breakup. Therefore, the ring is yours to do with as you wish.
