A woman has taken to social media to share how she accidentally came across her future engagement ring – but she hates it so much she can’t imagine herself wearing it
A woman has divided opinions after revealing how she hates her engagement ring so much that she doesn’t want to wear it. She explained how she accidentally came across her future engagement ring when putting away her passport – and couldn’t help but to look inside the box.
Taking to Reddit, she said: “I don’t wear rings or jewellery other than small earrings because of my job. I even have to take my earrings out for my hobbies. My boyfriend has been bringing up our future for a while and last fall November or December he sent me off to a jeweller to get sized.
“I guessed he was giving me his mum’s ring (not excited for multiple reasons) but thought, ‘Oh the sentiment is sweet’. His dad upgraded her ring and unfortunately he passed away a couple years ago and she stopped wearing her original engagement ring.
“I honestly couldn’t remember what her ring looked like. He was sad I ‘ruined’ his surprise.” But as soon as she saw the ring, her ‘heart sank’ as she struggled to come to terms with having to wear it forever.
