After Mama Delly posted this, I went through the comments and realized just how many women are exhausted—not necessarily because their husbands don’t provide, but because some men think providing money is all a woman needs.
Then I came across this comment from Mama Angela Bisong, and honestly, I think every married man should read it. If a man truly understands these things and puts them into practice, I believe his marriage has a much better chance of thriving.
Thank you, Mama Angela Bisong, for putting this into words. ❤️
She said:
- Don’t just provide for the house, be present in the house. Put your phone down and listen.
- Small appreciation goes far. Say thank you for the food, the cleaning, the kids.
- Sometimes we don’t need a solution, we just need you to listen and say, ‘I understand.’
- Your mood controls the whole house. If you’re upset, communicate, don’t just keep silent and make everyone tense.
* Praise your wife in front of others. Defend her in front of your family.
* Don’t only touch us when you want intimacy. Hug us, hold our hands, be romantic without an agenda.
- Help without being asked. Seeing the work and doing it is love.
- Be transparent. No secret chats or friendships that you have to hide from your wife.
- Don’t compare us to other women, your mother, or social media wives.
- Take care of your health and share your worries. We want to be your partner, not just your responsibility.”
Wives what can you add to this advice?
