I never figured this quite out, but when women wear rings on their various fingers, what does it mean? which finger for what? :s

Hmm i do not know.
Let me try:

Thumb-she likes beer
Forefinger-she likes coca-cola
Middle Finger-she likes apple pie
Ring Finger-she like rings
Little finger-she likes sleeping by open balcony


This is it. :D

I thought one (or more) on each finger meant she liked rings...

A certain ring on a woman's finger usually means "keep away". :D I wouldn't know what finger it's on though. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Well I can only answer for wedding rings, third finger on your left hand. It was believed that a vein ran directly from the third finger on the left hand to the heart. The vena amori or the vein of love. By wearing the ring on the third finger of the left hand, a married couple symbolically declares their eternal love for each other. Cute huh? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I should be able to answer that, since I own and wear 5 rings. but all I know is that you wear an engagement ring on the ring finger of your right hand and the wedding ring on the ring finger of your left. except I do remember my friend harping at me once because apparently you're not supposed to wear rings on your ring fingers unless you're married or engaged, cause so many people might get confused and think a 13 year old girl was married. ya, not here.

So which one is the vein that leads directly to divorce ? Cause it seems to be an awfully powerful vein. :D

Are you sure about that? AFAIK engagement rings are worn on the exact same finger as the wedding ring, third finger on the left hand that is. Then when you get another ring (wedding ring) you just slip that on the same finger.

Hmm johnny, I have no idea. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I'll have to get back to you on that... ;)
