Engagement ring.

So, I got engaged 11.5 years ago when I was quite young. My husband and I didn’t have much money - so his mum gave us a ring. I’ve never liked it. I hate it more now I’m older. I’ve never worn it - it literally sits in my wardrobe not being worn. I want to sell it - my husband thinks that’s awful and it’s “his mums ring” so I can’t sell it to get something more me. Help!!

Can you take it to a jewellers to get it melted and remodelled? His mums ring but more "you"

Hmm... Could you just have a second one, and keep the first to pass on to a daughter?

Get a new ring and pass that one down?

Yeah can it be remodelled? Not great that you told your husband you hate it really....

I didn’t tell him I hate it. I said to him that it’s no “me” and it is a waste never getting worn.

Ah ok
Would he be ok with getting it remodelled?
