The Old Money Guide To Marriage Quotes

“You continue to learn, grow, and change as an active and conscious choice. It makes you a better person. It also makes you a better partner. You and your spouse must be in agreement with this one big understanding, or one of you will grow and one of you won’t, and someone will be left behind, regardless of how much you have in common at the start of your marriage.”
― Byron Tully, The Old Money Guide To Marriage

“If a man can’t or won’t take ‘No’ for an answer, cause him as much physical pain as possible by kicking him in the genitals and scratching his face. His skin under your fingernails gives you DNA evidence and will make it difficult for anyone to believe anything was consensual. It will also require your assailant to answer very uncomfortable questions from friends over the following days. Get to a safe place as quickly as possible. Call the police and file charges. Never, under any circumstances, speak to or date that person again.”

“The thing I want to tell you is this: some of your friends and dating partners are idiots. Most of them, in fact, may be, especially those who propose sex on the first date, drinking and driving, or rationalizations for abuse. So don’t listen to them.”

“To be clear, how you behave and how you allow other people to behave while dating will provide you and the world a fresh, clear picture of what you really think of yourself and how much you value yourself. The watchwords here are respect, courtesy, boundaries, and structure.”
