As in your love lasting forever?
I've found that love shapes and changes you (most often for the
better, too), but, so far as the romantic aspect is concerned, can
often be fleeting. Be aware (not necessarily beware, however) if your
concept is different.

At least they aren't asking for information on flesh-removal wedding
bands. I know at least one couple who had that done and who have,
afaik, since divorced. Otoh, I've never heard either complain about
having taken those steps.
Still, perhaps implants of beads around the ring finger in place of
the traditional wedding band might be more prudent. Recently saw
'Apocalypto' (
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472043/ ) and the beading
seems kindasorta (by way of scarification?) in line with at least a
fraction of the OP's ("Maya, Aztec") intent. ('kindasorta a-fraction-
of'! How's THAT for spot-on?!)
Regardless, the bead implants would be reversibl... wait, so are
tattoos. Never mind! Go right ahead! Say no more!
Plus, I'm sure that your love shall last forever. I mean, statistics
clearly show... drat. Forget I said anything. Best wishes on your
quest. Thank you for posting.
