Days Long Ago~~Fan Language

The Victorian Fan Language
If a lady held her fan to her lips, it begged for a kiss.
Dropping the fan meant friendship only.
Drawing the fan across the face meant an apology.
The fan placed near the heart signaled YOU HAVE WON MY LOVE!
Hide eye's behind an open fan~~I Love You~~.
Opening and closing the fan several times meant You are Cruel.
Fanning slowly meant I am married.
Fanning quickly meant I am engaged.
Twirling the fain in the left hand meant You are being watched!

I like this idea for today..........I know its long gone......but what fun they had communicating without saying a word...........which sometimes is better anyway.
