I support this. If you can't afford a roof over your head, you're in no position to be proposing marriage. The way it looks, you're putting the responsibility of that roof on your partner, and that's not cool. Key note, when I say afford, I don't inherently mean own. I rented a room in a house for years before moving in my with my wife, but the point was that I paid for my own shelter. If I couldn't afford that much, I would never have asked her to marry me.

Is there a reason for throwing it out the window? In my culture a tooth is put under the pillow for the tooth fairy to come and take in exchange for money or a trinket. Would be interesting to know about any others, too!

bury the upper teeth and throw the lower teeth to the roof so that new teeth can grow healthy (that's what my parents said, no fairies involved)

In Romania it's similar to the Chinese one. We throw the tooth on window in hope a crow will catch ot or pick it up and bring one of steel

That's the second new thing I've learnt about China today

i put it in my tooth box because coincidentally the blankets were changed when my tooth was under the pillow and my tooth got thrown out. twice.
