I've still got my engagement ring. Although its a trigger for me, I haven't been able to part with it until now. For years its been sitting in a box at the back of my wardrobe. Now its time to let it go. I don't want to sell it, I want something good to come from it. Its probably not worth much but one small good deed in this world is better than none. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas? I could just donate it to a charity or give it away but I'd prefer something a bit more unique.
 
I don't know if you have kids, and I am not a sufferer, but I gave my engagement ring to my son in law who then used the stone from it and another ring fro a previous boyfriend of mine to fashion an engagement ring for her. I don't know if repurposing would be in the cards, but just a suggestion. Good luck. Every door door you close opens another door ahead!
 
Mine sit in my jewelry box. 2 of them. They were both bought at Kay's so IF I ever get married I can trade them in for a new ring.

If I'm not engaged or in a relationship when I finish school in 6 years I'm going to trade them in and buy myself a nice pair of diamond earrings.

If trading them in wasn't an option I'd pawn them and buy Christmas presents for the needy kids off the trees at the mall.
 
Wife 1, she could not stop dating, so I sold the ring and went to an adult club.

Wife 2, after 15 years she broke a promise that was the foundation to our realtionship. She kept the ring and shifted it to the other hand, 2 oz of 24ct gold and sphaire and diamonds, at cost it was 2k, I designed it and a friend did the work for free.

Current relationship, to be determined....

My ptsd is new, my feelings, not so much....
