The ring wants to be found

When my (now) wife and I were dating, we were enjoying a stroll in a small park on a footpath that went around an artificial pond in the park's center. At one point, I stopped and looked down, next to a tree by the side of the path. There was a huge mushroom on the ground, and something glinting beneath it. I picked it up, and it turned out to be a silver ring, made to look like a ribbon wound in the shape of a heart. Since I'm generally rather observant, I gave it to my (at the time) girlfriend and didn't give it much more thought. A few weeks later, she was working in her chemistry lab when a lab assistant noticed the ring and mentioned that it looked just like a ring she'd lost in that very park months earlier, and had gone back several times to look for it. Not only that, but she was only temporarily in the US, and had bought the ring in Singapore, and never expected to see it again.
