Tina: Tell him that you are flattered that he is interested in you, but that you don't like him.Jessie: But I do like him, just not in a boyfriend way.Tina: Well tell him that.Say that you want to be friends with him, but that you don't want to be his GF.Jessie: It will hurt his feelings to hear that.Tina: I knowLong thought to have a vein going directly to the heart, the third finger of the left hand has been universally adopted as the ideal place for the wedding

ring.The actual origin of the ring itself is thought to have

originated in ancient Egypt.戒指-長期以來人們認為左手的無名指有一根血管與心臟直接相通，人們普遍認為它是佩帶結婚戒指最理想的地方。戒指本身的真正來歷被認為是起源于古埃及。

Initially made of hemp or vine, the ring could be replaced whenever it wore out.The Romans later adopted the custom and began the tradition that continues today.Iron was used to symbolize the strength of the couples bond.In the fifteenth century, the British elevated the symbol by replacing iron with gold.Its lasting qualities of strength, beauty and purity have resulted in a custom that has remained unchanged for centuries.最初的戒指是用大麻或者藤蔓來做成的，當它戴破了之后人們就會換另一個。后來羅馬人采用了這種習俗并開始了沿襲至今日的傳統。過去鐵被用來象征著夫婦間堅韌的紐帶。在十五世紀，英國人用金子取代鐵，使其象征意義更為珍貴。金子的硬度、美麗與純度經久不衰，使之成為數世紀以來保持不變的習俗。

CakeYou don't have to dig very deeply to recognize this custom as a symbol of male dominance.In ancient Greece and Rome, women were considered as the property of their husbands like their houses or livestock!

面紗-你無須深究就可以發現這個習俗是男性統治的一個標志。在古希臘和古羅馬，婦女被認為和房子或者家畜一樣是丈夫的財產!

Usually covered from head to foot, it was accepted that only her husband had the right to see her unveiled.The lifting of the veil by the groom makes it clear that he is in the position of authority.It's amazing that this custom has been accepted by the liberal generation of today.More recently, it is often considered unlucky for the groom to see the bride prior the ceremony and the veil was considered the means of avoiding bad luck.通常婦女要從頭遮到腳，只有她的丈夫有權利看到她揭開面紗之后的樣子。新郎掀開蓋

頭的做法，清楚地表明了他站在權力的位置上。令人驚訝的是，這個習俗也被現在自由主義一代所接受。最近，通常來說人們認為新郎在舉行儀式之前看到新娘是不吉利的，而且面紗被認為是避免惡運的方法。

Valentine's day 情人節

Every February, across the country, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of Saint Valentine.But who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this holiday?

每年的二月，糖果、鮮花和禮物跨越國界以圣·瓦淪丁的名義在情人間相互傳遞著。可是這個神秘的圣徒是誰呢?而且，我們為什么慶祝這個節日?

The history of Valentine's Day--and its patron saint--is very mysterious.But we do know that February has long been a month of romance.Saint Valentine's Day, as we know it today, comes from both Christian and ancient Roman tradition.情人節的歷史-以及它的守護神-非常神秘。不過我們確實知道二月成為浪漫之月已經很久了。正如我們今天所知道的，圣·瓦淪丁節起源于基督教和古羅馬的傳統。

So, who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient rite? One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome.When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young, single men--his crop of potential soldiers.那么，誰是圣·瓦淪丁?他又是怎么和這個古代習俗發生聯系的呢?一種傳說主張瓦淪丁是一個修士，三世紀期間在羅馬傳道。當君主克勞迪亞斯二世認定單身男子比那些有妻子和家庭的男子做士兵更好時，他傳令年輕、單身男子-那些可能成為他的士兵的人-不能結婚。

Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret.When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.Other stories suggest that Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons where they were often beaten and tortured.瓦淪丁意識到這項法令是不道義的，他挑戰克勞迪亞斯并繼續秘密地為年輕情人們舉行婚禮。當瓦淪丁的行為被發覺了之后，克勞迪亞斯下令將他處死。其它的故事提出瓦淪丁被處死可能是因為他企圖幫助基督徒逃離嚴酷的羅馬監獄。在那里，他們經常遭到拷打和折磨。

According to one legend, Valentine actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself.While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl--who may have been his jailor's daughter--who visited him during his confinement.Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'From your Valentine,' an expression that is still in use today.根據一種傳說，瓦淪丁實際上自己發出了第一個“情人節”問候。有人相信瓦淪丁在監獄的時候和來探望他的一個年輕女孩相戀了，女孩可能是典獄長的女兒。臨死前，據說他給她寫了一封信，落款是“From your Valentine ”，這個表達方式今天還被使用。

Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is unclear, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure.It's no surprise that by the Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most

popular saints in England and France.盡管瓦淪丁傳說背后的真實性不確定，但是故事的確強調了他是一個有同情心的、英雄式的，以及最重要的是他是一個浪漫的人物。到中世紀的時候，瓦淪丁成為英格蘭和法國最受歡迎的圣徒之一也就不奇怪了。

But in Japan, Saint Valentine's Day is slightly different: The only ones doing the giving are females, and they usually send a gift of chocolates to their love interests.但是在日本，圣·瓦淪丁節有點不同：送禮物的只是女孩，而且她們通常根據戀人的喜好送巧克力做禮物。

This unique custom seems to have its roots in a campaign that a Japanese chocolate manufacturer started in 1958, promoting St.Valentine's Day as “the day women confess their love to a man with a gift of chocolate.” The manufacturer sold heart-shaped chocolates at a department store in Tokyo.Only five were sold that first year, but this “Valentine Sale” became more and more popular with each passing year, and the custom of females sending chocolates to males on Saint Valentine's Day gradually took root.這個獨特的習俗似乎源于一家日本巧克力生產商于1958年將圣·瓦淪丁節宣傳為“女人用巧克力做為禮物向她所愛的人表白愛意的日子。”的推廣活動。生產商在東京的一家百貨商店賣心型巧克力。第一年只賣出了五塊，不過這個“情人節銷售”逐年變得越來越受歡迎，而且在圣·瓦淪丁節女性給男性送巧克力的習俗也慢慢生根。

Today, chocolates are frequently given to members of one's own family.Gift giving on Saint Valentine's Day has also become quite common among school friends and colleagues at work.現在，人們經常給自己的家人送巧克力。同學和同事之間在圣·瓦淪丁節送禮物也變得相當普遍。

What's more, in Japan Saint Valentine's Day is followed up a month later by “White Day,” on March 14.This is the day when the men who received chocolates from women on Saint Valentine's Day give gifts like candy in return.This is also a custom unique to Japan, introduced and promoted by a Japanese confectionery company.But, perhaps because its history is still short, White Day is not yet as popular as St.Valentine's Day.此外，在日本圣·瓦淪丁節一個月之后的3月14日隨之而來的是“白色情人節”。這是圣·瓦淪丁節時從女士那里收到巧克力的男士回贈如糖果等禮物的日子。這也是日本的一個獨特習俗，由日本的糖果公司發起并推廣。不過，也許是由于它的歷史還短的緣故，白色情人節還不如圣·瓦淪丁節那么普遍。
