How to Be a Great Husband ~ Making Your Wife Feel Loved
PUSHING THE RIGHT BUTTON
The Button Not to Push
An angry wife to her husband on the phone: Where the hell are you?
Husband: Darling, you remember the jewelery shop where we saw the diamond necklace you totally fell in love with? I didn’t have money then and said,” Baby, it’ll be yours one day?”
Wife (Smiling and blushing): Yes, I remember that honey.
Husband: I’m in the bar next to the shop.
Pushing the Right Button
Make Time for Your Wife
If you’re like me, you can get so self-absorbed in your work you don’t have time for your wife. “Not having time” is just an excuse. I don’t know about you, but when I really want to I can make the time. If you are a loving and caring husband, ask yourself if you have seriously tried to find time for your wife?
Be honest. Yes, work is important and the pace of life can get hectic but with a little bit of planning I know we can make time for our wives. Your wife will love it if you make the effort and take her out for a night on the town or just spending the time with her in the way that makes her feel loved.
Know Your Wife Physical Needs
I don’t have to tell you this is important. Get to know what she really likes. Take the time to talk with her to find out. If you’re wife is shy, give her some time to open up and for you to fully understand them. You wouldn’t feel good knowing she isn’t loving it just as much as you are! Also respect her wishes and don’t force something upon her she’s uncomfortable with.
Don’t be guilty of taking your wife and marriage for granted. Like anything we value we have to be intentional about making your wife feel loved. Take time to learn her love language and begin loving her in the language that speaks to her heart.
