Don Ts For Wives Quotes

“Don't put showy qualities before honesty and uprightness in your husband.”
― Blanche Ebbutt, Don'ts for Wives

“Don't put on airs with your husband. If you can't act natural with him, you shouldn't have married him.
Don't expect your husband to be an angel. You would get very tired of him if he were.
Don't boast of your husband's money or birth or cleverness to your friends. It's nearly as bad as boasting your own.
Don't tell all your women friends of your husband's faults but--
Don't din his perfections into the ears of every woman you meet. Be satisfied to enjoy them.”
― Blanche Ebbutt, Don'ts for Wives

“Don't think that there is any satisfactory substitute for love between husband and wife. Respect and esteem make a good foundation, but they won't do alone.
Don't be surprised, if you have married for money, or position, or fame, that you get *only* money, or position, or fame; love can not be bought.”
― Blanche Ebbutt, Don'ts for Wives

“Don't try to model your husband on some other woman's husband. Let him be himself and make the best of him.”
― Blanche Ebbutt, Don'ts for Wives
