Thanks! Glad you enjoyed. I doubt that many people would have actually read these. LOL the ‘don’t marry a clown’ could apply today, unless of course you like clowns!

I wonder what people thought of these when they were reading them back then. The “don’t marry a clown” one is the only one I think somewhat holds up… 😅

This is one of my favourite posts I think 😀 Yes, if you take that out of context… it’s pretty funny!

Yes indeed, it was very strict. That’s great to hear about the humour, I think that must be right as even when bad things happen you can still laugh together. It’s a fun image I got from Pixabay. Thanks! 🙂

LOL I don’t know how many women would have actually read this advice but I hope they ignored it. Thanks!

Actually I’ve read somewhere that a study today suggests that humour is the best thing that keeps couples together for the long-term. But gotta love this old advice which I’m sure was the key to a perfect marriage. 😉 Btw I love that last image. 😀
