Being a good wife to your husband can help
your marriage be stronger, and the relationship work better. Also being a
good wife will inspire your husband to be a good husband. The following
are five ways to be a good wife to your husband:
1. Be supportive. If your husband hates
his job, and wants to go back to school, or change career paths, a good
wife would help them talk it out, help them weigh the pros and cons,
and determine which option is the best for them, their family, their
financial situation, etc. at the time. Then, she is going to support
whatever he decides, even if it makes life a little harder for a time.
2. Be helpful. A good wife helps her husband, not just in the obvious ways, like doing laundry, or running errands, but helps him like himself, helps him advance in his career, helps him feel accepted, etc. Whatever things he needs help with, she is by is side, willing to help where she can. If he is working late at the office to meet a deadline, she brings him dinner, or sorts files for him, or at the very least doesn't care that he did not take the trash out, or take his turn doing dishes.
3. Minimize criticisms. A good wife is going to minimize the number of criticisms she verbalizes, and thinks. While no one is perfect, a good wife is not going to rag on her husband, and constantly tells him what is wrong with him. Of course, on occasion a constructive criticism that helps their marriage improve, or their advance his career etc. but any and all criticisms are well thought out and tactfully delivered.
4. Maximize compliments. A good wife is going to maximize the number of compliments she delves out on a daily basis. She is going to compliment his looks, smarts, prowess, etc. A good wife is going to help her husband feel good about himself, and in doing so, he becomes a better person. If you compliment him when he dresses well, he will make bigger efforts to do so.
5. Take an interest in him and his interests. A good wife is going to do what she can to enjoy the things her husband enjoys doing. This means if he wants to spend his Saturday watching football, she is going to make some hot wings, and treats, and learn some of the lingo so that she can be part of that with him. It does not matter what his interest is, and whether or not it appeals to her personally, because she loves him, and is interested in him, she is going to take an interest in the things he likes.
Good wives do not always have to have a clean house, or be dressed perfectly with their pearls on and a smile in place. A good wife just has to help their husband feel loved, appreciated, important, and help them reach their potential.
