How To Show The Woman You Married That You Love Her
by Angie Lewis
What have you done lately to show the woman you married that you love
her? Did you take her out to dinner? Maybe you bought her some
flowers or chocolates? A man likes to do these things for a woman
because it’s easy and fast. But is your wife really appreciating the
flowers and chocolates? In this article I have mentioned a few other
useful tricks you can do to show your wife that you love her.
1. Validate the woman you married
A woman needs her man to validate her feelings. I know sometimes
this is challenging for you to do, especially if you disagree with
something she needs your support on. There is a correct way to do
this without being offensive and hurting her feelings.
First of all be understanding of your wife’s feelings and then
collaborate her on her thoughts and ideas even if they differ from
yours. In essence, when you listen to your wife’s feelings, without
criticizing her, you have essentially given her the validation she
needs. Everyone needs validation from time to time; it makes them
feel useful and productive individuals.
By trying to be more understanding, essentially you will be
respecting the woman you married. Tell her how much you like her
decorating style, or how she manages the home, or the way she
dresses. Find the things about your wife you really like, be honest
and tell her the great things you love about her instead of keeping
those feelings inside.
Validation is a form of acceptance that you can give your wife. By
accepting her for the woman she is it will make her feel safe and
secure being your wife. A woman who feels safe and loved will
ultimately give more of her self to her man.
Ironically, a husband can validate his wife’s feelings better when
he takes the role of spiritual leader in the home. A man who feels
secure in his position is more likely to make his wife feel good
about who she is in the marriage. They work better together as a
team, accomplishing more for them selves and the marriage.
2. Be more Affectionate with your wife
Hold your wife’s hand while watching TV, taking a walk, or driving
in the car. Massage her back or feet without asking for anything in
return. Your wife likes to be touched and fussed over occasionally,
know when that time is by being attune to your wife’s feelings, and
paying special attention to your wife on those days.
3. Surprise your wife with something totally unexpected
Instead of golfing with your buddies on Saturday, take your wife to
a romantic outside lunch if it is summer or fireplace lunch in the
winter. Then take her to a romantic comedy matinee movie. If you
have the money to spend, book a hotel room for the night with a
Jacuzzi and enjoy the night together! Your wife will love all this.
Make her a homemade all-occasion card on the computer telling her
how important she is to you in your life. Make her feel special. Get
creative, draw her a picture, and spend time on creating this card,
she will love it that you took the time to make her a card rather
than simply buying one from the store. It is the simple things in
life that mean the most.
4. Give your wife the whole day off from cooking, children, and
house cleaning.
This isn’t too hard. On your day off do everything for her. Do all
the things she does for you. If you don’t know how to cook, order
pizza or Chinese food. Let your wife spend the day with her friends
shopping or going to lunch, etc. When she comes home give her a back
rub, take her shoes off, draw her a hot bubble bath and let her take
a long bath. When she comes out from her bath, light the candles,
caress her some more and just be there for her all the rest of the
evening. Be her loving, romantic and protecting man so she can be
the woman God made her to be for you.
5. Appreciate all that your wife does
All of the above will show your wife that you love her and
appreciate her for everything that she does. Being understanding of
your wife’s feelings and needs on a consistent basis will improve
the quality of your marriage a great deal. By taking the respective
roles that God has designed for each gender will greatly enhance the
happiness of your marriage. Be the man of the house so she can be
the lady of the house.
