My MIL Demanded I Give Back My Engagement Ring Because It ‘Belonged to Her Side of the Family’
When Adam proposed, I thought the vintage sapphire ring he gave me was a symbol of our future.
For six months, it was my constant reminder of our love—until Diane, his mother, claimed it was a family heirloom, insisting I return it.
Feeling pressured, I gave it back, but soon Adam and his father confronted Diane. She apologized for her actions, admitting she didn’t see me as part of the family. Adam reaffirmed the ring was mine, and he proposed again.
Diane eventually accepted me, and Peter, Adam’s father, even gave me a family photo album for our children. The ring was mine, not because I earned it, but because love made me part of their family
