BOSTON (Reuters) -- Are diamonds really forever?
An anonymous gift-giver left a $15,000 diamond engagement ring to the owner of an unlocked car in western Massachusetts with a typed note hinting at a broken heart.
"Merry Christmas. Thank you for leaving your car door unlocked. Instead of stealing your car I gave you a present. Hopefully this will land in the hands of someone you love, for my love is gone now. Merry Christmas to you," the note said.
The three-diamond ring with a white-gold band appeared on the seat of the man's car at a train station in Westborough, about 30 miles west of Boston, on December 7, police said. Four days later, the man reported it to police.
"This appears to be random," said Westborough Police Lt. Paul Donnelly. "I think there was a search for a car that was unlocked."
The 37-year-old man decided to keep the ring after a jeweler appraised its value at $15,000, police said.

That's kind of sad, actually....the giver must have been devistated to have just given something like that away.![]()
This is exactly why I don't lock doors.
"Merry Christmas. Thank you for leaving your car door unlocked. Instead of stealing your car I gave you a present. Hopefully this will land in the hands of someone you love, for my love is gone now. Merry Christmas to you," the note said.
Been there.
Know how he feels.
"Though the diamond was left on the passenger's side, the handgun under the driver's seat was suspeciously missing. Random brain matter found several hundred feet away appears to be unrelated."
Cmon, maybe he should've thought about it more before he asked. He probably only knew her for a few months and thought she was the one. Perfect example of when one person loves the other one a lot more than the other. Dumbass.
awww that is sadPoor thing. Its no fun being heart broken..especially around the holidays.
I wonder if the man is gonna sell it or what. I don't think I'd sell the ring if I were to have found it like that.
I wonder if he's still alive???
Thats what I was thinking...this poor sap is probably hanging and swinging from the shower rod someplace now.
who the giver?? wow, thats a good question. I sure hope he is. How sad![]()
Man, with a $15,000 ring it's not hard to buy love. That guy must have been a real loser.
How do u know the girl jsut rejected him? It doesn't tell u the whole story...
How do I know she rejected him? Uh, because he gave the ring away....![]()
He could have caught her cheating
or She could have died....
I'll keep my money on that he was a loser, who probably asked the first girl he slept with to marry him...![]()
^Hmm, I sense bitterness. Recalling personal experiences?![]()
he could have had another 'true' love by that night if he knew how to talk.![]()
just kidding!!!!! :p

yes, I have been in that same situation.
I can empathize with that guy
sometimes you should never ask a question you don't know the answer to.
Hmmm, no. I just don't feel bad for a guy that's too stupid to know she'd say no. If she did die, then he has bad timing.![]()
Give me a ring or something dude. It'll make you feel better!
That was my thought. I read this and didn't think this guy had been rejected. I thought the person who gave away the ring was mourning someone.
If you get dumped you sell the ring and spend the $15G on booze and hookers.
