Tidying up the lawn, taking out the trash, fixing broken items... whether it's arduous tasks or maintaining cleanliness, you prefer to handle them yourself. Even though you might not be as quick as a professional handyman, you still take care of them. You don't want to burden your beloved wife with more chores. All of these actions demonstrate that you are a responsible man.
7. Shower Your Wife with Compliments
Do you often compliment your wife when she wears a new outfit or tries a new hairstyle? Or when meeting friends, do you proudly talk about your wife, admiring her work ethic, how she handles a tough day, and her care for others? If you love your wife, you won't see compliments for her as wasteful. You want the world to know how amazing your wife is.
8. Always Seek Your Wife's Opinion
Every time you face difficult decisions, do you ask for your wife's opinion to hear her suggestions and advice? Because you understand each other well, she always provides thoughtful and insightful reasoning to help you. Her perception easily grasps the emotions of others. Therefore, every piece of advice she gives you is valuable and meaningful.
9. Practice Listening, Apologizing, and Making Changes
You enjoy running, and you always take pride in being a professional runner in front of others. A 5 km distance might be easy for you, but for someone else, it could be quite a long way. Your wife made a small suggestion about your habit of telling people, 'It's just 5 km.' And you realize, not everyone sees 5 km as insignificant. Your way of speaking may have unintentionally offended others, and you need to change this habit immediately.
10. Always Express Your Love to Her
Every day, you never forget to express your love to your wife: 'I love you very much,' 'I love you' with all sincerity from the heart. You want your wife to never doubt your feelings for her. As her better half, you need to always be sincere and strive to bring long-lasting happiness to your wife. Because she is the love of your life.
11. Support Her Pursuit of Dreams
Your wife loves painting. And on her birthday, you gave her a gift voucher from a studio nearby. You see, the gift for her is these tools, which will be incredibly wonderful. Because they can help her attend classes and pursue her dreams. Don't hesitate or discourage, just be willing to support your wife.
12. Don't Use Your Wife as an Emotional Dumping Ground
While it's true that men often carry more responsibilities, pressure, and heavier workloads than women, never unload all of that onto your partner. Modern women also work, face societal pressures, and sometimes even take on more responsibilities, including household chores. Don't let your personal struggles spill over into your home life, making the family atmosphere burdensome.
13. Loyalty and Trust in Your Wife
This is something both husbands and wives need to have. However, in today's era, men, especially those in office jobs, tend to have more extramarital affairs than women. To maintain family happiness, men should always appreciate the value of their family, their spouse, and absolutely refrain from infidelity. You may feel tempted or attracted despite being married, but always remember your boundaries and position.
The second thing husbands need to do is to trust. If you want your spouse to trust you, then you also need to trust them. Trusting each other is the only way to prolong family happiness.
14. Keep the Love Alive
Don't forget to keep the love alive with delicious meals, shopping trips, strolls in the city, or short getaways. Share your interests and desires with your partner, don't forget to express sincere gratitude and praise when receiving romance. This will make your partner happy and encourage them to maintain such gestures in the future. Sweet gestures, no matter how small, are the essential spice for a happy marriage.
15. Address Issues Gently and Avoid Using Violence
When unhappy about something, address the issue with your wife, expressing what bothers you, but refrain from implying criticism or blame. Criticism often attacks the other person, making them defensively withdraw rather than willingly join you in solving the problem.
Appreciate women, calmly resolve matters, and under no circumstances, resort to violence. This will kill both love and your family's happiness.
16. Value Your Wife's Family
If you want, even demand, your wife to respect and cherish your family, why not do the same for her family? Women will only love you more when you treat them well, but they will appreciate and value you a thousand times more when you treat her family with kindness, always showing respect to her parents and relatives. This demonstrates that you are a perfect husband, a good son-in-law, and a wonderful man!
