    You meant to use jilted (as in jilted lovers) - gilted means covered in a thin layer of gold… and if you wanted gilted you’d probably be better of using gilded which is a much more commonly used word for essentially the same connotation of richness.

      Logic dictates that “Jilted” means “covered in Jold”. Ergo, “jold” is a synonym for whatever causes “unfavored” or “fallen out of favor”

      “We have too much jold and should get a divorce”
