Relationship I Have No Clue What I Did...need Advice.

I have known mine for 2 years. The last convo I had w/him...I asked him a question about his younger brother. That is all...nothing else! I just asked if his younger brother since he is 24 years old would want a gf how would he handle that if he still lives at home w/his parents. He thought it was inappropriate of me asking him that...n I think I might have pressed it only cause he told me stories about how shy his brother is and how he tried helping him get a girl...just that one question I have been shut out of his life.
At first I was angry, that why do I need to walk on eggshells for him, when he doesn't have a filter in his mouth and he can say whatever he wants about me and my family and he can give his opinion on matters and I asked him one question. I am now blacklisted. He hasn't return my calls, texts since last Sunday. It's like he is punishing me...he has my father's ring. I have asked back for it since we are done. I sent him texts repeatedly and left him voicemail...I have no idea what to do. If he wants out, than tell me and give me the my dead dad's ring and I will move on w/my life. Not a word. Not a single word. So I called his father, left him a vm, send him a text asking him to please speak to his son and return my dad's ring. That was 4 days after dead silence. He called him me upset that I reached out to his dad. I told him well I did call him, text him if he blocked me I understand if he is done, return what is mine and I will leave. He said we are done since I contacted his family and told them our business. I understand he is upset and I will leave...again he hangs up and now again he has me blocked...not a word. I have been sending him message after 3 days of dead silence, to please return what is mine so I can move forward w/my life. He knows why I gave him the ring, he knows under what speculation that since we were together...I wanted him to have what means everything to me. He knew if we ended things to return the ring. If he ended it let me know and let me know when will he be returning the ring. Why won't he let me know? He chose to shut me out, he chose to not return my calls or text and since he is done, return what is mine so we can both move on...and not leave me in a limbo. I messed up...yes I understand by calling his parents but he left me no choice. Please someone help me w/this. He has told me many, many times how he will destroy the one thing I had of my dad's. He told me many times how he would throw it away in a river somewhere, how he would take a sledge hammer and destroy it. What do I do? It's been 4 days since he told me its over but not a word on my dad's ring. Please help!
 
He told me many times how he would throw it away in a river somewhere, how he would take a sledge hammer and destroy it.

I dont know if anyone can answer it but this shows possibly his intentions, he has the ring, can hold it over your head, he knows you wont fully leave so as long as he has the ring, he knows its hurting you and panicking you. If it were me, Id do everything inside of me, without telling him, to be ok without the ring, to be able to know you're dad is in your heart with you without the ring and though it means everything to you, what if you lost it on day, you would be upset but you'd move on. And tell him he can keep the ring, you dont care and are moving on with your life. Take that power back from him and he may do a switch up now that he doesnt have that power over you any more but he may or may not give it back so thats why i said be ok without it.

Im sorry he is doing this! It sounds like a power move to me. Something to hurt you with and its a shitty move. :hug:
 
@Daisy0712, wait, so you gave him the ring with the intent of getting it back, even tho...
Thank you for your advice I gave him the ring when he was here in my state, but he had to move back home due to his father's health and some other legal reasons. When he told me that he can't prolly come out to see me, I said fine...just return the ring and he would be like so you want me out of your life? I guess I will destroy the ring or throw it away. So he is keeping it over my head, knowing what it means to me. He meant the world to me its why I gave it to him and I thought we would last but we didn't.
 
Thank you so much Lostforgottensoul! I appreciate your advice...GREATLY! Yeah he is holding it over my head...I need to just let him go...n consider it gone. I am sorry I gave it to him but I gave it to him under good intentions. I am just really sad that someone can abuse someone's love in that sense, he knows what it means to me, he knows I loved my father that I lost and he is losing his own father to sickness...I thought he would understand. Thank you for reading my post...from the bottom of my heart.
 
So he is keeping it over my head, knowing what it means to me.

Yes he is which is why you must be ok mentally if you never get it back. Lesson learned, dont give it away unless he marries you or something but at the moment you cant let him have that power. Once he looses the power, he may give it up and just return it but if he doesnt then you need to be ok mentally. Theres not a lot you can do legally as you gave it to him. Possession is 9 10ths of the law but you gave it to him and without something written saying he would give it back if you broke up, there is no proof that you didnt just give it to him to keep, forever, regardless thus why you need to be ok without it.
 
Thank you for reading my post...from the bottom of my heart.

You're welcome. Its a shitty ass move but either hurting you or danggling a carrot in front of you keeping you strung along so you cant fully move on is what he wants. He may return it after you release it but you need to be ok mentally if he doesnt.

Take care of you.
 
I agree, never give a gift if you want it back one day.

That's not a "gift" in the true sense.

Gifts should be given freely without conditions.
