The Ring of Truth

It seems that a number of women in Britain are discovering that the engagement rings they have been given are fakes. The frauds come to light after a break up. The woman takes her ring to a pawn shop, only to discover it's not a real diamond. One pawn broker chain, Money Shop, is offering free diamond ring tests, until next Wednesday, as a Valentine's Day promotion. This says a lot about the level of romance and honesty being put forth by a number of British men. In one case, a woman thought the ring her former fiance had given her had cost £4,500. When she took it to a pawn shop, she was only offered £250. Every diamond ring I have ever given a fiancee has been real. Once again, women who pass me up do so at their peril.
