Promise ring?

So for Xmas, my ex got me a necklace, earring and ring set that he had ordered to my house from JCP. The day it got to my house he was with me and let me open it. It got to my house the day after xmas. I opened it and was excited and just put it on and said thank-you and everything. We broke up and he’s now telling me he wants his ring back because its a promise ring. Im new to this whole promise ring stuff but wasn’t he supposed to say “ babe this ring is a promise of our love “ blah blah or something? I literally thought it was just a Christmas gift.
