Do I have to return gifts to my boyfriend after our breakup?

Question

Do I have to return gifts to my boyfriend after our breakup?



Answer

Only an engagement ring. (In NY)



Answer

A gift is distinct from a loan or investment. If it was truly a gift, it is complete upon acceptance of the item and is not conditional. As Mr. Nager points out, an engagement ring must be returned because it is conditioned upon a marriage.
