She excitedly accepted and started admiring the ring. That was when the woman noticed something was amiss. According to her confession, her man had engraved her name on the ornament.
Beside her name was her boyfriend’s family name and that set off her alarms. She narrated:
“I handed him back the ring in front of everyone and told him it was beautiful but he had no right to assign me his name. I was not to be his property.”
The lady said she had hoped that her man would have asked for her opinion before making such a decision without consulting her.
