Today, my girlfriend of three weeks found the engagement ring I tried to give to my ex. She started crying and said yes. FML
The story behind this is that when I proposed to my ex, and she said no, I was devastated. I hadn't really gotten over her, but my family set me up and I went out with her to humor them. We had a nice night and had gone out several times since.
As for the ring, the materials were worth about $4000 and I spent over 2 weeks smelting and hand designing it. I spent so much time on it, that it didn't feel right to sell it.
Also, I have made the decision never to see her again. So yes, I ran.
