10 Things Men Want Their Wives To Know by server123: 7:51pm On Nov 17, 2012
1. Men would rather feel unloved than inadequateand disrespected.
Husbands need to know that their wives respect
them both privately and publicly. Men thrive when
they know that their wives trust them, admire them
and believe in them. Research indicated that men would
rather sense the loss of loving feelings from
their wives than to be disrespected by them.

2. A man’s anger is often a response to feeling disrespected by his wife.
When a husband becomes angry with his wife, he
may not come out and say, “You’re disrespecting
me!” But, there is a good likelihood that he is feeling
stung by something his wife has done which he considers disrespectful and humiliating.

3. Men are insecure.
Men are afraid that they aren’t cutting it in life – not
just at work, but at home, in their role as a husband.
They may never vocalize this, but inwardly, they are
secretly vulnerable. The antidote? Affirmation.
To men, affirmation from their wives is everything!
If they don’t receive this affirmation from their wives,
they’ll seek it elsewhere. When they receive regular
and genuine affirmation from their wives (not
flattery, by the way), they become much more secure
and confident in all areas of their lives.

4. Men feel the burden of being the provider for their family.
Intellectually, it doesn’t matter how much or little a man makes,
or whether or not his wife makes more
or less money in her career. Men simply bear the
emotional burden of providing for their family. It’s
not a burden they’ve chosen to bear. Men are simply
wired with this burden. As such, it is never far from
their minds and can result in the feeling of being trapped.
While wives cannot release their husbands
from this burden, they can relieve it through a
healthy dose of appreciation, encouragement and
support.

5. Men want more sex.
Everyone’s natural response to this is probably,
“Duh!” But, that response is probably for the wrong
reason. We primarily assume that men want more
sex with their wives due to their physical wiring
(their “needs”). But, surprisingly, research showed
that the reason men want more sex is because of
their strong need to be desired by their wives. Men
simply need to be wanted. Regular, fulfilling sex is
critical to a man’s sense of feeling loved and desired.

6. Sex means more than sex.
When men feel their wives desire them sexually, it
has a profound effect on the rest of their lives. It
gives them an increasing sense of confidence and
well-being that carries over into every other area of
his life. The flipside of this coin also carries a profoundly negative affect.
When a husband feels rejected sexually, he not only feels his wife is
rejecting him physically, but that she is somehow
rejecting his life as a husband, provider and man.
This is why making sex a priority in marriage is so
incredibly important!

7. Men struggle with visual temptation.
This means the vast majority of men respond to
visual images when it comes to women. And, this
doesn’t just mean the guys with wandering eyes.
Even the most godly husband cannot avoid noticing
a woman who dresses in a way that draws attention to her body.
Even if it is just a glance, these visual
images are stored away in the male brain as a sort of
“visual rolodex”; that will reappear without any
warning. Men can choose whether to dwell on these
images and memories or dismiss them, but they can’t
control when these images appear.

8. Men enjoy romance, but doubt their skills to be romantic.
True, many men appear to be unromantic clods, but it
doesn’t mean that they want to be that way! Men
want to be romantic, but they just doubt their ability
to pull it off. They are plagued by internal hesitations,
perceiving the risk of humiliation and failure as too
high. Wives can do a great deal to increase their
husbands’ confidence in their romantic skills through
encouragement and redefining what romance looks
like. For example, a wife may balk when her husband asks her to go along to the hardware store,
but it’s likely that he’s asking because he sees it as a time they can get away as a couple and hang out
together. What’s not romantic about that?

9. Men care about their wife’s appearance.
This isn’t saying that all men want their wives to look like the latest supermodel.
What men really want is to know that their wives are making an effort to take
care of themselves (and not letting themselves go)because it matters to them (the husbands!).
Husbands appreciate the efforts their wives make to maintain their attractiveness.

10. Men want their wives to know how much they love them.
This was the number one response of men.
Men aren’t confident in their ability to express this, but they love their wives dearly.
Men want to show how much they love their wives.

Have a happy family .... SOURCE
