Superstitions — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 15:10:27 +0000

If you break a mirror you’ll have 7 years of bad luck.

You can avoid the bad luck if you take the shards of glass and other pieces outside and bury them in moonlight.

If an undisturbed mirror suddenly falls and breaks, there will soon be a death.

Never give a Russian woman an even number of flowers. Even numbers are for the dead. Always give odd numbers. When you order a dozen, or two dozen roses, for her, ask them to throw in an extra one for good luck.

Never give yellow flowers to a Russian woman. It signifies infidelity and may mean that your relationship will not last.

Never give a watch as a gift to a Russian woman. Time is running out on your relationship.

Never give a knife as a gift, or take a coin back for it in return so that the knife has been sold and not given. If given as a gift it will cut the relationship.
