Re: HELP !!!!!

NYS law is that if the ring was given on valentines day, her birthday or Christmas
she does not have to return the ring to the man no matter who did the breaking up or for what reason. Any other date the ring belongs to the man.

Re: HELP !!!!!

Do you mean returning as in getting it back from the party he gave it to? Did he call it off?

Oops - previous post was wrong ...New York law makes clear that the male retains the right to the ring at the termination of the engagement

I'd also like to add that it depends on state law, but an engagement ring is considered a conditional gift given in contemplation of marriage. When the marriage contract does not occur, the conditions of the gift have not been met and the ring should be returned.
