Men interpret nagging as one of two things: she either doesn't trust me or she doesn't respect me. To a man, disrespect is basically his woman not loving him. Love & respect are the same to him. If he has lost her respect, he has lost her love & might as well withdraw from her. 2-It's not easy for men to understand this aspect of female nature (being oriented to criticising, analysing, judging, and finding fault in a spouse). It seems self-defeating, i.e. a way to sabotage the relationship and therefore one's own well-being and happiness.

Thread for aspiring homemakers:

1 - Before I came home, and I knew I wanted to be a housewife, I would sketch out a schedule of an ideal day at home, w/ time allotted to all the important things I wanted to do there: cooking, cleaning, organizing, sewing. I wrote it all out.. 2 - It made me happy just seeing it all on paper.
I titled these dream schedules: "My Goals and My Ideal Day” I suggest you do this. Whatever you come up with will help to guide in what you are doing now to prepare and what you are going to do at home now and in the future.

Happily married men have wives who stroke their egos and give them their warm approval. And in return, these men practically worship their wives. They want to give them the world. Women in general have been taught to believe that a man's ego is a weakness and immaturity, but, in fact, a man has a normal need to feel respected and good about himself. His ego needs protecting in the same way a woman's heart needs protecting and it's a wife's job to do that.

Some things I did before the internet came on the scene and started taking up so much of my time:

*Renting videos was exciting whether it was from the library (like you do now) or a video store. *We spent hours crafting from our stashes of odds and ends and made homemade candles, potpourri and glycerin soaps,

*my friends and I made floral wreaths for the seasons and arrangements for the table.

*We talked on actual phones instead of messenger or texting.

Remember, your husband married you because of who you are so don’t forget to hold onto and keep those lovely qualities that attracted him to you to begin with. Of course, we should grow and mature and change, but in some sense you need to stay that girl he fell in love with. 1/3 What are some things my husband liked about me? I'll go along w/ just about any adventure he comes up with. I do my best to go places/do things w/him. I take care of the domestic details at home like cooking & housekeeping. I’m affectionate,loving, submissive & not too crazy. 2/

Wife lesson:

Pay attention to your husband because men are straightforward about their needs when they think their woman is receptive. But if he has been disrespected in the past, he may be uncommunicative. Even when you ask him, he may be unwilling to risk your reaction. 1/ A good place to start is to think of things he has asked you to do in the past that you were unwilling to do. Now do those things. Stop talking so much and start to observe your husband and you will know how to realize his desires. 2/

#LoveYourHusband

Some things I do to keep the good vibes going in my marriage and make sure my husband feels loved and appreciated.

//Thread// I am always sexually available and enthusiastic. I consider this to be a simple duty of marriage (1 Corinthians 7: 2-5)

"That they [the older women] may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands…" ~ Titus 2:3

"Female piety is to love her husband." - Socrates A Christian woman should be a husband-lover.

What does that mean?

This word in the original Greek describes a woman who is delightfully fond of her man and shows it. A husband- loving woman shows concern for her man and cares for his needs.

I am always sexually available to my husband. That's my number one priority as a wife. Obviously there are times when it's not appropriate to have sex ,but these are much more bearable for both of us because we do not withhold from each other when it is within our power to give. I would say this is, after our mutual faith in God, the number one reason we are happily married after 37 years.

Marriage tip:

Share your thoughts, concerns and ideas with modesty, reserve, and the greatest respect...

...not demanding or commanding that your husband do certain things.

The “boss babe” approach will destroy the attraction and affection your husband has for you. Only communicate in a calm, logical way and do not throw things or yell. It may be that you will have to take a day and pray about the situation before talking. Any kind of physical violence is NOT communicating; it is an attack; punishment. 2/3

It's so easy for us, dear sisters, to pick up on the attitudes of the rebellious feminists. We see these attitudes now even in the teachings of prominent female Bible teachers & so-called Christian authors.

Let's be careful who we listen to: make sure they line up w/ scripture. I have found myself lately falling into a complainy spirit with my husband lately and I realize that I have also been reading some popular female Christian writers. Has it helped my marriage? Not one bit.

Thread. "The Good Wife's Guide", 1955. I cannot take credit for this masterpiece, but I think it is some of the best marriage advice I've seen. #TheGoodWife Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready on time. This lets him know that you've been thinking about him & are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they get home & the prospect of a good meal is part of the warm welcome needed.

A woman who says she loves her husband but refuses to serve him, is a hypocrite. Love is service. Too many women serve their children, friends, even their pets but will not make their husbands a sandwich, will not pick up his socks, will not give him sex when tired or busy... 1/3 ...too busy to reach out to our husband's family and friends with hospitality. We give him the cold shoulder or worse nag him when he fails to live up to our expectations. If we love our man, we will try to please him. Serving is the outward expression of love. 2/3
