Its a law that the ring is given in contract to marrage. If the marrage does not take place, then the contract was not fulfilled and the ring goes back to the buyer. I still have the first ring. If Mom would keep her mouth shut I would have given her the first ring.
We also just bought her a Honda 250 and she is learning how to ride. She loves it
Ouch! The old ring? Don't do it. Bad ju-ju.

That is an excellent sign. Likely a keeper! (Think years and years and years with the same person). If you can't resolve quickly, you are in for a rough ride.
