If your query is
is it true that if I gift a nosestud, it will be taken as an amorous proposal?

My answer is NO.
Two of my friends and me got a nosestud as a gift from the same person. He had 6 or 7 of them of the same kind. It was an artificial one and not gold anyway.

I wore it only one day and just kept it aside later. Its too big for my face. Thats all. I did not check with my friends on this. They are in Mumbai.

When you mentioned this thread, I was wondering if it was the same old thread where we all shared views about getting a piercing or not.

As far back as I could remember I always wanted to pierce my nose, but there was always incidents that swayed me from doing so:

1) My Amma thinking it was too old-fashioned to do so, actually she use to always despair where she got such a country bumpkin from because I liked long skirts, had waist-long hair, and couldn't wait to wear a saree...she forbade me more or less and I use to tease her that If I got a high average, got into uni, graduated, I would get my nose pierced.

2) I found out the reason behind my mom's distaste with nose stud was because of my grandma, who only go to know she was getting married when they took her to get her nose pierced, a very headstrong woman I can only imagine how angry she must felt to have her nose pierced against her wishes!

3) The whole fiasco I went through with my ear piercings...I have three piercings in both my ears...first one I got an infection, second one I got done at a drug mart and it was not even, third time's the charm I guess! So yes I have Holy Ears

4) I didn't like the punk/bad girl image nose studs got associated with when it became a trend here again where not just Indian girls were getting their nose pierced.

5) I am a big baby when it comes to pain

AND I have asthma/allergies.

And to answer your Q after all this preamble...I don't know about nose studs...but jewellery in general is seen as a "step forward" sign.

What if you succeeded with more than one?

Remember, different women like different nose studs!

And what if they all like the same one?

Its a Gamble, Give it to the one you like the most.

Nosestuds? I personally find nose rings to be much sexier... especially on a slightly dusky girl with Long Hair who wears enough bangles to start a shop in Pondy Bazaar, with a British Accent... Effin A!

Hi dev,
Yes I could open a new thread with that title.......but then, that'd be work fit for someone who has more time than they could handle on their hands!

Yeah you laughed, didnt you? :P

Hi Guys! I lost my freedom because of the nose stud !! (again!)
An ex colleague of mine is a nice lady whom I know for the past 4 yrs. She is a nice girl, a divorcee, who had an unfortunate marriage, forced into it by her parents, which lasted for just about two weeks.
Once when she visited my home, impulsively I gifted her a single stone diamond nose stud? She said "what for? Today is not my birth day." I replied "Just like that. I thought it would look nice on you" Then I realised her nose was not pierced.
That weekend she came home again. She had pierced her nose and was wearing that nose stud.
She said "Why didn't you propose to me directly ? Why did you have to do like this". "Like what?" I asked mildly pleasantly surprised. "Like presenting me a diamond nose stud". I was terribly confused. I liked her a lot. But marriage proposal was not in my mind. Impulsively I asked, "Well, what is your answer?" She laughed loudly. "Ofcourse YES!. You are surely dumb. Can't you see I have pierced my nose and is wearing your nose stud?"
I got married 5 weeks ago !!! I have got answer to my query ! But what a way to find the answer !!
