Q. Many years ago, I was engaged to someone who broke up with me prior to the vort. The ring had been bought and was given to me but was too big so it was left with the jeweler to resize. In reflecting why it is taking me so long to remarry, I was wondering if this situation requires a get.
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that if the ring was not given in front of “Eidim” or two designated proper witnesses and the accustomed traditional words recited when performing Kiddushin were not said, it would be obvious that no intention of an act of marriage was intended.
