I have been quite astonished by the level of feedback from a previous article that I wrote, what makes a poor husband? So much so that I thought I would write a follow up, this time on a more positive footing, describing what it takes to become a good husband. I just hope that the feedback continues to be positive enjoy the read.
I treat being in a relationship as being in a game, a game that I want to win. To become victorious I need to get into the mind of my opponent (my wife). What is she thinking? What does she want? What does she need?
Understanding
When a woman is feeling down she likes to have a shoulder to cry on. As a husband we need to provide this shoulder and not just say to our wife:
"Pull yourself together; stop feeling so sorry for yourself."
She does not particularly require any advice from you just someone to listen to her.
By confirming that you support her and will always love her should do the trick.
Kindness
There is no need to buy your wife a huge present every week, to be generally kind costs nothing. Show some consideration, open the door for her, give her a cuddle in bed, tell her you love her and tell her what a great mum she is.
Honest
Be honest to your wife, do not cheat on her as let's face it you would not want her to be unfaithful to you.
There is no relationship without trust, therefore ensure that your wife is in no doubt that you are one hundred percent hers.
Think
When purchasing a present for your wife you need to use your imagination. Do not just buy her the same perfume each and every year; think about what she really wants. What would blow her mind away and make her realise what a top man you really are? Some top of the range shoes perhaps?

Hi Steve, being a woman, I just had to check this out- loved it. My husband does all of the above and it works. Thanks for encouraging men to step up to the plate. As for viewing marriage as a game, I'm all for it as long as it is a fun-fast paced game. But if its a game of chess- well, then we would have some problems :-)Thanks Theresa, it certainly is not chess, however I actually like a game of chess - what does that say about me?
I guess this is proof that we are all different and there is a perfect match for each of us :-) I am sure your wife thinks you are an amazing chess player :-) God bless you and yours and Happy New Year!I am an average chess player but hopefully a good husband! Happy New Year to you and to all the other readers of this article. Steve
