AIBU to want to keep my rings post split

[TenbyChristmas]

I've split with my husband in March, his decision, I'd've fought for my marriage til the death, however, he has asked for my engagement and wedding rings back. I refused, on the grounds that he was ending the marriage and not me. Furthermore, I adore them and though I don't wear them anymore I couldn't bear to part with them. They are both very valuable. (Combined about 4k) I occasionally do a Charlotte from sex and the city and wear them for a while at home.... But to me they are symbols of vows I took that I kept, richer poorer sickness health... I want to keep them. AIBU?

My friends SBXH left her for OW, days after the divorce was finalised he turned up on her doorstep with his hand out expecting her to hand over the engagement and wedding ring. When she refused he went mad, for weeks he hounded her night and day trying to get her to had the rungs over.

It turned out combined they are worth over 14k, he got her jeweller uncle to make the rings for less than a third of the value and was hoping to get his 'investment' back.

And even worse he wanted to engagement ring to give to the OW!

He actually tried to take my friend to the small claims court for the rings.

OP you keep hold of YOUR rings and tell your SBXH where to go.

Sorry I accidentally pressed post. I thought I stopped it in time.

I have a memory that they count as part of the estate if you divorce - so you would have to pay him the "divorce share" of the asset if you have a monetary settlement (i.e. often 50%). But the rings themselves are yours.

Alanna not in the uk you wouldn't they are classed as a personal gift

How unclassy do you need to be to ask for the engagement ring back? Have some dignity!
