A woman's attempt to sell her engagement ring has gone viral after her hilarious explanation for selling it. Although the reason she is selling it — because her disgusting fiancé slept with a prostitute, tried strangling her, and stole from his dementia-stricken father — wasn't the funny part, the way she told the story was. Lisa J Sconey posted her engagement ring on the Facebook group 'Rotherham Swap, Sell or Buy,' asking for £500, which equates to around $665. A fellow member of the group, Pam, asked her why she was selling it, which is when Lisa launched into the long-winded horror story of her repulsive ex-fiancé. Her blunt, heartbreaking, but hilarious way with words spoke to people's hearts, especially to Pam's. Pam launched a fundraiser titled: Raising £500 for the Lisa J Sconey. It has so far raised even more than that, and it's still going. Below is Lisa's crazy explanation.

Getting engaged is one of the most exciting moments in a person's life; a moment of love, commitment, and pure happiness. The engagement ring is the symbol of all these emotions, and so it has to be special. Some girls know exactly what type of ring they want and drop numerous hints, so their BF's can come prepared. Others have no idea, and so they get proposed to with a temporary ring and then choose one together, afterward. And sometimes, the guy has a family heirloom with which to propose. But what happens when the guy proposes with a ring that he already used to propose to his ex-girlfriend? Is it OK to recycle engagement rings, or is that totally weird? One Reddit user found herself in that exact position and wants to know if she's an a**hole for not wanting to accept the ring. The responses were mostly in her favor, but some people jumped in to defend her seemingly clueless fiance. Check out the debate below...
