What Pleases Your Wife?
Why do you need to know? Hey, think about it!
If you really knew what pleases your wife, and she's not all that happy with you, why aren't you doing those things? Or, if you are doing what you think pleases her, and she's still not happy - are you sure you really know?
Every marriage has good things in it, and it can be helpful to remember these at times of stress.
You and your wife married because ...? Okay, why did you wed? Maybe you couldn't help but be delighted by her, or her by you. Or maybe circumstances forced your hand.
By now you probably have some idea what your wife likes. Maybe it would be helpful for you to list for yourself the things you know she enjoys, and the things that you believe give her satisfaction from being married to you.
There are plusses and minuses about every human endeavour, including marriage, and it helps us keep things in perspective when we recall and recognise the good, along with the bad.
Your wife may have things that she would complain of - they're next on our list - xxxx but do start reminding yourself of the things you understand give her pleasure, support or satisfaction, from being with you.
We do not recommend presents, flowers, theatre tickets and so on - unless your wife has specifically complained about their absence. Reminders of her importance to you, by attending to the things she identies to you as most important to her - these are going to be your best bet, aren't they?
