They only took 3 baths a year, so in April or May they would take a bath after winter was Over.
Now we all heard of June weddings, well from May to June they would Start to Smell a Little Funky, So to mask the Body Smell the women would Use Flowers to mask the SENT! while walking down the Il of Holy matrimony.
According to history, the diamond as an engagement ring began in 1477 with Maximillian of Austria and Mary of Burgundy. Max asked one of his councilors for advice in proposing to Mary. The councilor told him to give her a diamond. Max took the advice and proposed slipping a diamond ring on her third finger, left hand. Mar said, “yes” and a tradition was born.
I stand corrected, started in the 14?? when a Diamond was given as an Ingagment Ring.
When a larger portion of the population became able to afford rings with precious stones, engagement rings became highly symbolic, many including sets of stones with personal meanings. One popular model featured the birth stones of the engaged couple and each of their parents. The Victorian tradition of engagement rings included precious stones whose initials spelled out a message: Lapis lazuli, Opal, Vermarine, and Emerald for LOVE, for example. Other popular rings had gems spelled out Regards or Dearest. Some engagement rings during this era also contained compartments for a lock of the betrothed's hair.
The Diamond was not one! Only after a Prince gave one WHY?
Don`t believe every thing you fined on the Internet.
Your Wrong on both! first Diamonds had no Value until 1650 around. They wher Rocks found on Foot paths. Not even Classified as a Gem. Only Rock with no value! Why have 2 friends that are Gemologists, and both told me same Story. Try again.
Why do women carry flowers down the Il? why did the tradition Start?
For men Only the girls might have something to say about That.LOL
I saw someone that posted this on this Site
I think his looking for a YES Woman, Good luck.
Not true, had a friend that got a Mail in bride. took him for allot of $. Not counting by Canadian law if you sponsor someone your Financially responsible for 5yrs.
She moved out after one year, hes had to pay for rent+++++ and C.C. Bills.
Ever times she goes to new Apartment she puts his name does not pay no rent or electricity, then they go after him. he went to court got the C.Cards removed and company will not Issue her a Card under his Last name. but for her Living expenses he still IS responsible!
I think the Key is to get lucky and fined the right one or with same. And she could be in the USA Or anywhere else in the world.
Why do men give Diamond rings to Women? Or Sign of being Cheap?
My deepest Condolences Sir, must of been a Heavy, and Painful Lost, Especially after 40yrs.Guess she is your Soul Mate! and her Spirit lives through YOU.
Any man that can claim they been with someone for that amount of time, Is A Lucky Man Indeed.

Sorry for your Great Lost. Life sometimes is not Fair.
