How can I give him his ring back?

Tagged as: Breaking up, Teenage, The ex-factor<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (10 October 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 11 October 2007)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I broke up with my boyfriend, but he gave me his ring. I feel like this is his way of still being connected to me, but I know if we have that connection he's still hoping that we'll get back together. What do I say when I return the ring to him, to make it perfectly clear to him that there is no future for us? How can I say it without seeming rude?

Asexy agony auntHe may not have wanted it back because he didn't know what to do with it. Keeping it reminds him of the relationship. Giving it to another girl? Ick.

When you give it back, suggest he give it to his mother/sister. Tell him you don't plan to wear it again, ever, and since it's such a nice/pretty (whatever) ring you think someone should wear it. But that person won't ever be you.
