Never cheat on a welder! That's what this woman's ex-fiancé learned after she discovered that he had been cheating on her with one of his exes. In fact, that ex ended up becoming friends and roommates with the Redditor, but that's a different tangent. Shared bonding, I guess. Anyway, this woman shared on Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit that after calling off her engagement, her ex-fiancé would not stop whining about wanting his $190 Amazon-purchased engagement ring back.

After his incessant nagging, she finally decided to return her engagement ring, but with a bit of a surprise. She welded a cube, dropped the engagement ring inside it, and sealed it shut. Now, her ex-fiancé has the ring but he's unable to get it out. Apparently, he has been fretting about this fact still to this day, ten years later. Keep scrolling below for the full play-by-play.
