Social Dilemma: Can I Ask For A Family Heirloom Ring Back After A Divorce?

Today's 98.3 TRY Social Dilemma came from Jack and it's about divorce and jewelry. Here's the email: Hi Jaime. Sadly my wife and I recently got divorced after 23 years of marriage. It wasn't my choice, it was hers, but I went along with it and it was all fairly amicable. We had no children We have just one problem. I gave her a ring for our 10th anniversary that was a family heirloom. It means a lot to my family, and I would like to make sure it gets passed down in MY family and not hers. I would like the ring back. However, she's making a stink about it saying it was a gift. I understand that, and have even offered to pay her for it or buy her another ring, but she is still holding firm on not giving it back. Who do you think is right here? Don't you think the ring should come back to MY family. It means nothing to her other than a gift, but to my family it's generations of memories. Help me out. Thanks ~ Jack. This is tough. It was a gift so I believe legally, it's hers to keep. But I think if I were her, I would give it back. He's right...it's a family heirloom. And he's offering to pay for it. I'm not sure why she's refusing but I think it would be nice if she would let go of it. That's my take anyway. What do you think? Let's help Jack out and let me know on the TRY Facebook page.
