I've been married for 7 years and cannot imagine a life without my husband, so when this 60-year-old widow in our next story clung to the last remaining memory of her late husband–his simple gold band wedding ring–I truly get it. So when her entitled daughter-in-law somehow thought that something so meaningful could just be tossed around from hand to hand, she was firmly in the right to deny her request.
Wedding rings are special. Not only do they represent a love that transcends time and space, but they are deeply personal. Usually, when you inherit an heirloom wedding ring from some deceased family member, it's because they're long gone (from some great-great grandma, perhaps) and that deep connection with the ring has passed away with them. This is why it's entirely reasonable that the mother-in-law in this next story, who was widowed at a young age, refused to part with such a meaningful artifact: Her late husband's wedding band.
Read on for all the details of the daughter-in-law who disrespected a woman's 35-year-long marriage by demanding an early inheritance in the form of her late father-in-law's wedding band. By the way, she had never even met the man, so I'd say she has zero claim to that ring.
