You probably are the most envied participant on VHTV right now, as quite a few of us seem to have a crush on your fiancée. The blush on her cheeks totally turns me on here, and don’t even get me started about her hair.
She reminds me a lot of the girl I was hopelessly in love with in my school years. (And of actress Rachel Weisz, who also reminds me of that one girl.) She lived a few doors down the road, and we took the same bus to school for many years. As we grew up, at some point I realized she was a girl, and a pretty one, too. Calling it a crush would be a massive understatement, by the end of our school time I was absolutely sick with love. Of course I never dared to confess my feelings to her.
I sometimes dream of her to this day. Last year I ran into her, shopping for groceries, for the first time in maybe twenty years. It was around christmas, she was visiting her family. I was thunderstruck, heart racing and all. I was lucky I was still able to speak coherently. I am happy to report that she aged well.
So, again, congratultions to the both of you. It makes me happy that, even in these most difficult of times for your country, you can find so much joy in your lives.
Not true. Here, an engagement ring and a wedding ring are completely separate from each other, and they do not change hands as you claim. You get engaged with one ring, and you get married with another new ring. The wedding ring then has the same shape and appearance for both the man and the woman.
Well no, here in the UK, the shape and appearance can be quite different. For example, one of them could contain a diamond (or any other stone(s)) and be rather ornate, whilst the other MIGHT be quite plain.
In Poland, some time ago, wedding rings had the same design regardless of gender. Today, they can come in various patterns and colors. Women often wear them with precious stones or embellishments. Men tend to opt for standard rings, but this isn’t mandatory. The engagement ring is traditionally worn on the ring finger of the right hand. This custom, originating from patriotic tradition after the January Uprising, distinguishes Poland from many Western countries, where it is worn on the left hand. After the wedding, the ring can be left on the right hand and worn together with the wedding ring, or switched to the left hand.
