Relationships are one of the most precious blessings given to us in our lifetimes. Through this connection with the woman you love, you receive a sense of completion, a sense of purpose and pride. All and all, you become a more enriched individual. The Sun appears to be brighter than before, your steps are filled with mission and the knowledge that someone loves you exhorts you to keep pushing forward. These are just a few of the wonderful blessings a woman gives her man. But, let us consider what the role of a husband should be in a woman’s life. I have pondered and pondered over this question. One morning, while taking an early walk in the park, an answer to this question rushed past me like birds leaving for the winter. I flew home and wrote down my thoughts before they left me. I wrote, “A husband’s role is to be the stage on which his woman shines.” Naturally, the next question I asked was “How?”

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • To be in a relationship
  • Love for your spouse

Step1
Be the provider of her dreams. Talk with your wife and get to know her. Find out what her childhood dreams were and write them down. Discover the places she desires to travel to and make plans. If she has a dream of opening her own business, then meet with financial advisors in order to start an investment portfolio that could finance her work. Be the provider of her dreams.
Step2
Never let a day pass without expressing your love for her. Before you fall asleep, turn to her and whisper your affections. If she chooses to stay at home, send her flowers from the office. If she is a professional, visit her and take her to launch. If she is crying, hold her and do not speak. Never let a day pass without expressing you love for her.
Step3
Be her resource. In the pursuit of her dream, continually ask her what she needs. Strive to be that resourceful person she requires to advance her life’s desire. Never say to her, “We can not afford it.” Say, “I will work on how we can afford it.” If what she needs cannot be found, sit down with her and come up with another plan that will achieve the same result. Be her resource.
Step4
Show off your wife. Take her out on a date every couple of weeks. Take her to the opera, the theatre, the fanciest restaurant in town. Introduce her as “your wife” with pride. Announce your love socially. When you speak about your wife, say only positive things about her. Whenever someone says something negative about your wife, be the man that will defend his life’s passion. Be the fool, be different and show off your wife.
Step5
Be a listener. Speak when given the invitation. Learn when she needs to hear your counsel and when she requires only your presence. Be the listener she can speak to.
