Throwing Apples Was a Show of Affection
Throwing apples at your crush might seem really weird, so you wouldn’t want to try it. However, men in Ancient Greece used to throw apples at their loved ones to ask for the person’s hand in marriage. That’s a literal way to say, “You are the apple of my eye!”

Apples were also thrown at married couples to wish them a lifetime of prosperity. In today’s world, someone throwing apples at another person might be considered a hostile act. So, before you go ahead and emulate the ancient Greeks, make sure you know who you’re doing this to.
