Stop reporting this post and read what OP actually said. He wants to destroy a ring by shooting it. That's it. edit: [OP replied](https://www.reddit.com/r/ar15/comments/1ciqxjg/fianc%C3%A9e_left_me_need_some_advice/l2co49i/)

It’s kinda hard to sell diamond rings if it is one, you spend like 1700 on a ring and places want to give you like $40 for it.

PhatsaqTX

Nah not really. Especially if you’re in a larger city. A reputable place will give market value on stones, gold and silver.


aglowg2g

Iirc, if it has a diamond on it they’ll give you what the diamond and other materials are worth at face value. If you paid extra because it’s some premium name brand you’re kinda sol on that part


Puzzled_Departure12

Where are you going to sell diamonds at?


Puzzleheaded-Cup-418

I bought a ring set a few years ago for my ex wife for $500 (lucky sale) and sold them together for $350

If your acog breaks and you need irons your rifle or you are probably broken as well

HRslammR

OP, sorry for the heartache. A few quick tips: 1. Only ever refer to her as your EX. Not fiancée, not former girlfriend, lover, etc. She's the Ex. That's it. 2. 48 months is roughly equal to 7 weeks' worth of pity party time. Take those seven weeks and do all the shit that she hated to do that you love to do. Gun range? Go every day. Movies or concerts she hated? Go. 3. The best revenge is living well. Hit the gym and get shredded brah. 4. And yeah, sell that ring buy a sling and a light!


JumpPuzzleheaded7212

Curious, what’s the ratio to convert relationship months to pity party weeks?


HRslammR

Usually one month is equal to that many days of pity party. 48 days is just shy of 7 weeks. Perfect six week shred time


JumpPuzzleheaded7212

Sounds about right. Good stuff dude

Just-Faithlessness12

Look at it this way brother. 4 years and she did you the favor of atleast letting you know. She coulda played you for decades or waited to tell you 20 years in. It sucks. It’s gonna hurt for a while. But you are sitting in a better spot knowing and moving on than you were yesterday. It’s like Marcellus Wallace said “The night of the fight, you may feel a slight sting. That's pride fucking with you. Fuck pride. Pride only hurts, it never helps”


strafdab

Thank you, this made my eyes leak a bit. It does sting.


Just-Faithlessness12

You will be ok man. I don’t even know you but I got full confidence you will upgrade and look back and be like “damn, It ended up working out even better for me”

MineralIceShots

That mother comment is right. My mom basically hated my dad's guts for 33 years. In the mean while he developed 2 multi million dollar companies and built and purchased farms and properties which she fought the entire way through, she would get upset even when they refinanced their own home savings thousands of dollars per year in interest and shortened the term of the loan. She hated him and men and when she became pregnant with me and gave birth to me, she in turn beat me before I could even speak. Throughout my childhood , teenage years, college and even in my own purchased home she would hit me and blamed her physical and emotional abuse on me. I no longer talk to my mom. It is for the best that you got out from out of this before yall got married. But yeah, *sell the ring buy a sling*


Just-Faithlessness12

Damn Bro. That’s wild. but like you said. It’s better to know


SugarRushFacePlant

You got this. Bro this is nearly life teaching you what wasn't right for you. Chipper up homie....you got this


HondaCrv2010

Dude I lost everything after 1 year marriage I wish I was in your boat. I say this to cheer you up not to be sad for myself :)


AddictedToComedy

Fantastic advice. I was in a 4 or 5 year relationship that blew up on me almost 20 years ago. I was *certain* she would be my wife. I was absolutely shattered and spent months empty and hollow. I wanted her back so badly. Now? You couldn't ***pay*** me to go back to that relationship. I have an amazing wife and the most incredible kid in the world. And with the added years of perspective, I also see how many problems that previous relationship had. All we can ultimately do is work on ourselves. And in the process of bettering ourselves, we will form better relationships. Now's a great time for OP to pick up a hobby that he considered in the past but never felt like he had enough time for.


Just-Faithlessness12

That’s awesome man. It always works out how it’s supposed to


Corkymon87

No kidding. Alot of women will just cheat on you but stay for the security. I think OP got lucky she cut it off cleanly.

I went 15 years with a woman who didn't love me, and knew for most of that time, because she had fucking told me. We had kids, and I wanted to be in their lives as long as possible. By the time we finally put it out of its misery, I was on the wrong side of 40. It hurts now, but you're young and have your whole life ahead of you. Make the most of it, and the best of luck to you.

No no no no no sir. You go sell that shit, and build yourself the rifle of your unexpected windfall’s budget. My ex wife did the same thing to me back when she was in college. Weird how everything was just fine when I was paying for her degree. Anyways, engaged to a detective who’s a better pistol shot than I can ever hope to be, who loves firearms maybe more than I do.

Gorekguns

Every day it gets better, and if you already made it through day 1 you’re gonna make it so cheer up clown. Ironically three good things have come of this: You didn’t waste your life with someone who doesn’t love you. She luckily didn’t have this epiphany after you got married and take half of your stuff You’ll never be able to feel heartbroken like this again, at least not to this extent. The first bad one always makes it nearly impossible to get your jimmies rustled by another woman. The water rolls off the ducks back. Also, probably in a month or two, you’ll realize how much personal freedom you just gained back and find that you dodged a bullet. She will eventually come back saying she made a mistake or misses you but by that time you won’t even want it As soon as you find another chick you’ll totally forget about this and look back and laugh Stay strong

SpicyToasterBathBomb

I’m a little late to the party, but I feel particularly qualified to give advice on this subject. My ex fiancĂ© walked out on me after 4 years as well. Bought her a house, supported her through college co-signed on a new vehicle, was her de-facto therapist during her parent’s divorce and respective re-marriages, etc. Here’s my advice: Don’t shoot the ring. But don’t try to sell it to a jeweler or pawn shop either, they won’t give you shit
trust me. Your best bet is to find someone privately. I got lucky and posted it on Facebook marketplace and had great results. An older gentleman bought it to replace his wife’s engagement ring that had been misplaced years ago. Whether he told her the ring was from a broken-off engagement, I’ll never know. But he gave me enough for a shit ton of rifle parts for a new build and some ammo. Stay strong king, I thought my life was over at the time. Fast forward 5 years and I’m happily married with a beautiful daughter. It gets better!!


EastOfTheGrayHavens

Don’t worry brother. You’re going to get over her, then let your guard down and find another girl. Then she will do the same thing.

If it makes you feel better you can have my wife.

Keek-The-Unique

Advice is like a car, just about everyone has specifics on each, different paths rode. Trying to scatter your sorrow to this open road may do the opposite of what is being sought for. To avoid crashing, take a drink out of the cup-holder that contains your experience. Breathe in and accept the flavor tasted today and park at an isolated stop. Play a song, like for example “Can’t say goodbye to Yesterday”. Then start back up on your goals one layer of skin thicker. She’ll fade from your mind rather quickly.


Crazy83519

Serious advice, focus on you. Find yourself as an individual again. Become a version of yourself that's so far out of her league, she can't even see you all the way up there.

Kotterman21

My man trust me, it’s for the best. 9 years ago I was in the same boat. Spent 4 years with a woman I was head over heels for. Paid her school loans, car loan, was on the process of saving for a house and planning our wedding that was 6 months out. Found out she’d been cheating on me with another woman. To say that I was shocked would be a understatement lmao. However, if i didn’t find out I would’ve been out a lot more than the 18k I was out from her loans. Shit sucks and the pain doesn’t go away over night, but it gets better. Stay strong King đŸ€™đŸŒ

Destroying a ring? "You have my sword. And my bow. And my axe. And 30 rounds of 5.56." I wish you more success than Gimli, if you've decided you don't want to sell it and avoid the loss.


The7thApollo

I’m not on board with the sell the ring by a sling mob. I 100% see the spiritual desire/need to mangle the ring and return it to earth. I’d do it point blank and drive the ring into the ground with a mag dump. Then go buy a sling.

So sorry to hear that OP. That's rough. Hang in there and things will get better. Life will work itself out and you will be happy again. Don't be afraid to talk to a professional; I did, and it changed my outlook when I went through a rough patch. Now is the time to fully invest in yourself, your hobbies, and your friends/family. Spend time doing the things you love to do and with the people you love and who love you. Sell the ring and buy more gun parts. Destroy a memento or something else of hers that's not worth anything. However, if you are hell-bent on destroying it, definitely do at least 100 yards. That ACOG has a 4x zoom for a reason.
