Fulfilling your husband’s needs does not mean you’re inferior to him. It means you love him and want to make him happy. Are you doing that?
The key to a successful relationship is unselfish acts. If you can put your husband’s needs above yours, you are on the right track. Having the desire to fulfill your husband’s needs is in no way submitting yourself to an inferior role as a wife. But if you truly adore your spouse, then you want to make him satisfied, and these five tips make men happy — simple as that.
Every man’s needs are different; however, every man has the same basic needs. While each man is unique, these needs are what most men feel on average.
Recreational companionship
Each husband and wife are a classic example of a couple with hardly anything in common, especially when it comes to hobbies. They enjoy doing their own things separately — which can be good in a marriage, but is NOT ENOUGH. But when we spend time together doing what he likes, it’s often a win-win situation. Spending the evening playing playstation with my husband was never something I would have chosen, but I ended up having a great time. In fact, it was one of the best dates I have ever been on. Show your husband you care about his stuff by showing some interest in his hobbies. He may even return the favor and spend the day doing what you want to do! Imagine your husband taking you out shopping.
Sexual fulfillment
This can be a tricky subject, but it’s an important one. Every husband and wife must learn to never treat intimacy like a game — to never withhold it as punishment. Doing so only aggravates feelings of negativity and resentment. Intimacy should bring couples together better than anything, and if it’s important to your husband, it needs to be important to you. Whether or not marital intimacy is special depends on the attitude and effort of those involved.
Admiration
In every relationship, your husband is doing his part, working his ass off — whether that’s having a career, going to school, helping children with their homework, etc. Most of his actions may go unnoticed. For example, my husband works 8-10 hours a day, then spends his evenings working on his laptop. You may not physically see how much your husband does for your family every day, which can make his efforts easier to forget — out of sight, out of mind. Remember, as often as possible, show and tell your husband how much you love and appreciate all he does for you.
Domestic support
Domestic support involves the creation of a peaceful and well-managed home environment. You and your husband may share household work and other home responsibilities equally, or your husband may need you to handle these responsibilities more often if he is busy handling others. Again, in a healthy relationship, your husband should be doing his part. If this is the case, fulfill hubby’s needs by cooking meals he loves, washing dishes (you can use a dishwasher), keeping your home clean(get a maid, dear) , etc.
An attractive spouse
In long term marriages, it is usual wives can get familiar and comfortable with their husbands — which is great. Like staying in pajamas all day, how relaxed it is, especially for parenting mums. Some days are like that, and that’s OK, but don’t let this type of thing become a habit. Put effort into looking attractive to your husband. If you don’t see your husband until he walks in the door 30 seconds before he comes home, schedule a few minutes before he arrives to freshen yourself up. Start doing this and you’ll notice a positive difference in your husband’s mood when he comes home. Bonus: it will make you feel great, too.
Doing these five tips to fulfill your husband’s needs is a great way to enrich your marriage. Whether a marriage is in trouble or not, when wives fulfill their husband’s needs, the marriage becomes stronger.
