Love and Warfare: Who Keeps the Engagement Ring in the Event of a Breakup?

They say love is eternal, but sometimes it just doesn't last. Each year, thousands of engaged couples across the United States decide to end their engagement. After the confusion and chaos of the breakup subsides, the question often becomes "What happens to the engagement ring?". An engagement ring is often representative of many weeks of the future groom's income and therefore a valuable and sought after item by both parties. Lucky, the courts in both New York and New Jersey have made it clear what the law dictates in this difficult situation.
