7 expectations wives have towards their husbands to keep them happy, day in and day out.

Males are more concerned with passion and enjoyment in a relationship/marriage than their counterparts. In general, women are more emotional in relationships, whereas men are more concerned with keeping things light and entertaining. While passion is necessary to maintain a relationship, males are more emotionally affected by its absence. Sometimes, communication is broken and none of the spouse are willing to express themselves accordingly, and if they do, the other spouse tend to shut down and avoid conflict. It is not uncommon to have ONE of the two parties to wanting to discuss the challenges in the marriage, while the other will always think everything is going smoothly. The flight or flee attitude kicks in and without addressing the situation properly, the marriage can face worst problems long terms.

Understanding your spouse’s needs and how to meet them is one of the most crucial components of marriage.
But do you know what a woman, in particular, need in a marriage?

Fortunately, we’re here to assist couples who are having difficulty figuring it out.

For example, communication is critical, but how frequently should you communicate?

How should it appear? Even sex is essential, but how frequently should you make love?
Wives and husbands do not see eye to eye on everything and we tend to see why with the many memes circulating over the internet as to what women expect from their men in relationship. While men are simple creature and prefer a peaceful life with good food, lots of sex and a nurturing spouse, the list is somewhat short to make them happy. On the other hand, we look at the list of expectation from wives towards husbands and it is a long as the diameter of planet Earth. Why do we see such a large distinctions between genders related to expectations?

A fulfilling marriage for both partners is influenced by a number of things.Yet, we have some advice for couples who are confused how to satisfy their partner’s expectations in any aspect of their relationship. If you include these suggestions into your relationship, you will immediately notice that your wife is more satisfied and happier, and you will be pleased in your marriage as well.
Because everyone is unique, this list may not apply to all spouses.

Yet, after significant study, I am persuaded that the following “needs” represent the daily wishes of the majority of women.

What wives expects from their husbands.

1. To feel cared and loved with compassion.

A husband expresses his love for his wife by both his words and his deeds. A husband should tell his wife (at least once a day) that he loves her, but those words should be backed up with tenderness and thoughtfulness in his deeds.

2. To feel attractive to their spouse .

Whether a woman is dressed up to go out or wearing an old t-shirt around the home, she must feel beautiful in her husband’s eyes. A husband satisfies this demand by complimenting her, flirting with her, displaying tenderness, and having eyes solely for her.
A man can’t look at every lady walking by or on TV and then tell his wife he only has eyes for her.

3. To be hugged.

A woman’s yearning for physical intimacy is a constant longing. This can be satisfied by the spouse delivering a shoulder/back/foot massage at the conclusion of the day, as well as embraces and caresses throughout the day. Such touches satisfy both physical and emotional needs.

This includes sexual closeness, but women have a stronger desire for physical contact outside of the bedroom than males.

4. Emotional Validation.

Women prefer being validated than listened to. WE been thought that reflective listening is key for proper communication but what has more impact is validating her emotions and understand where they originate from. Understanding the non-verbal cues is crucial to better capture her moods and let her figure out the best solution. Sometimes, getting too involved can be detrimental to the relationship.

5. Being appreciated.

When a guy is considerate, he expresses love, care, gratitude, and respect for his wife. Appreciation isn’t only for romantic occasions; it’s a daily requirement and a necessary component of a healthy, happy marriage.

6. Being able to provide a safe environment for the family

Safe environment includes financial, as being the good provider, but also safe as feeling protected in case of major dilemma. Being the man of the house comes with great responsibilities. If you are not ready to provide for them in every aspect of relationship, it is important to determine if you are the right person for the job.

And FINALLY…. Well, it is not really final, as wives always want more and more from their spouses. It is important to find a good balance to what you can give and how much you can get back. Selflessness always work wonders but marriage is always a two way street.  

7. To be the best lover/lasting hours in bed, handyman, plumber, electrician, carpenter, roofer, landscaper, therapist/counselor, have 6 pack abs, be great step-dad, financial planner, tour guide, kind, nurturing etc………..

Sorry, i couldn’t find images for all of the attributes listed above.

So yes, this list may sound ludicrous when reading it but for many, these are the norms when it comes to expectations, and when these expectations are not meant, we face disappointments and when that happens, we get a very unhappy spouse.

Marriage or relationships are not easy, and keeping the passion is harder as you get older. Couples must understand that if they want to live in peace and serenity with each other, they must learn not to be expecting too much from the other, and allow themselves to compromise when things do not go their way. In marriage, “my way or the highway” will only take you to ONE major road: The divorce one.
