What to do in a situation if you lost your engagement ring

An engagement ring is a piece of jewelry that a man presents to a girl on the day of engagement. If the girl accepts the ring, the engagement is considered to have taken place, and the participants of the action acquire the status of bride and groom.

Alas, it is not uncommon for rings to be lost. This happens both because of a mistake with the size, when the ring is a little too big, and because of the long period of wear. Often between the engagement and the wedding can be more than one year. Or maybe the wedding has already passed and the ring was lost afterward?

We understand that you are upset. What should we do?

What do the omens say about losing an engagement ring?

The loss of an engagement ring in all cultures is interpreted as a bad omen. It is believed that if the ring is lost before the wedding:

• one of the lovers has frivolous intentions;
• the groom has fallen in love with another woman;
• the girl is not ready for marriage;
• the wedding may not take place.

The loss of the engagement ring after the wedding may bode well for a speedy divorce. But, of course, these are just omens. To believe in them or not – a personal matter. But we advise you to believe your second half, not the mystical heritage of distant times.

What to do if there was a loss of an engagement ring

For starters, it’s worth calming down and remembering where and when you last saw the ring.

• Go back to the place where you could potentially have lost the ring and look for it.
• Check places where you might have put the ring “on automatic”: jewelry box, shelf in the bathroom, countertop near the sink in the kitchen (if you are used to removing the ring when cooking).

If it is not possible to find the loss, together with the groom decide how to proceed. Do not be afraid to say about the loss: believe me, compared to all the vicissitudes of life this – just an unpleasant little thing. We are sure that your chosen one is a sensible and mature man who will realize that the engagement ring is just a thing. And its loss should not affect your relationship in any way.
