“The ring was given to you by the original owner. There’s no ambiguity in who is the rightful owner. This isn’t a question. It’s not a negotiable item. She gave it to you. Don’t listen to the advice of anyone telling you to let him have it. Most people who tell people to compromise with their absent/awful/selfish/narcissistic parents are either completely clueless as to what having a parent like that is actually like or… they do have parents like that and are emotionally compromised. Your life experience tells you your father is selfish, he will not put you as a priority and while he’s setting up a new family he doesn’t get to guilt you into giving him your property. I’d show up at Christmas Eve dinner with a ring pop wrapped as a present already labeled to his future fiancé. Enjoy dinner and the fireworks the next day. If he can’t remember your birthday… and he’s too embarrassed to ask to find out… he’s just a relative not your father. NTA”
