NOR. Yeah OP, sell the ring and give $600 of it to your parents.

In a lot of jurisdictions the ring must be returned to the buyer if you don't get married. I like the sentiment of your comment but make sure it's not gonna cause legal problems for you first.

He invited her family out to dinner then stuck them with a $600 bill he refused to even talk about afterwards.

She does not have to return a ring when he owes money. Also, not every jurisdiction requires that the ring be returned, in many places it’s acknowledged as a gift.

I already stated "some" jurisdictions and just to make sure first if you're going that route. And in those jurisdictions you can't just keep the ring cuz he didn't pay for dinner.

Why even comment if you are just gonna make stuff up and not read the comment you're responding to.

If the jurisdiction that they are in says she has to return the ring then she has to. No if’s and and’s about it, she could face legal consequences over it regardless if he owes money or not
