20 Things Wives Want to Hear From Their Husbands
20 Things Wives Want to Hear From Their Husbands
As you may recall, I wrote a post entitled 10 Things Men Want to Hear From Their Wives. I figured it’s only fair to post about the affirmation that women want from their husbands. We all know that men and women crave different things when it comes to love. Â As you will see from my list below, women thrive from hearing words of affirmation – they need to hear that they are loved for what they do and who they are as an individual and in their role as a couple.
20 things wives want to hear from their husbands:Â
- You are beautiful.
- You look amazing.
- You have my full attention.
- I cherish/admire you.
- I’m sorry.
- You make me a better man.
- Thanks for all you do.
- I need you.
- I love you more every day.
- What a great meal!
- I’ll always be faithful to you.
- I’m glad I married you.
- You are a great mom.
- I’ll watch the kids.
- Let’s go for a walk/watch a movie/cuddle.
- What can I do to help you?
- I miss you when we are apart.
- I’m sorry you had a difficult/stressful day.
- I like spending time with you.
- I’m proud to be your husband.
What would you add to this list? Which is most important to you?
I did the dishes. That’s the top of my list. He does great with most of the other things, but “I did the dishes” is my favorite.
I agree with that one. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
Hmm. Good list … I’m not married but I like when it when my boyfriend says “I enjoyed spending time with you today,” and I say that to him too – we both know we enjoyed the time together, but it’s nice to hear it too :).
Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of life and the often hectic environment of being a parent it is easy to forget how important it is to say some nice things to your spouse often. Thanks for the reminder.
You are welcome.
These are great ones! Number 7 is high on my list!
Great read. Thanks for posting up the other version of your post! Thanks!
I love surprises so that I would add; I have a surprise for you. Your husband is good with that one. ;). I would also add you’re smart or talented. I love hearing that one. I HATE having to beg for help, so I love, how can I help you?
Great list! I espeically love the “I’m sorry one”. I would love to hear “Honey, I did the laundry.” Possible? I dunno…… LOL
Thanks for visiting.
I’m glad I married you is the best for me. I love the words but actions are the best.
Actions speak louder than words 🙂
I’ll watch the kids, haha. o love hearing those words!!
I’m sure you do! Thanks for visiting.
I’m just going to casually email this to my husband… :p haha he’s actually pretty good about these things. He may not say it like that, word for word, but he’s awesome at knowing when I need time with him or when I’m stressed and need a break from work or cleaning or whatever it may be. He’s not, however, a very lovey dovey kind of guy haha so it’s challenging to get him to say those cheesy types of things. But I know he means it so that’s all that matters.
Thanks for visiting and commenting. Sounds like you have a great guy!
Such a great list. My favorite is “What can I help you with?”
That’s an important one!
Yes this all of this! I just sent this post to my husband 🙂
Hope your hubby takes it to heart!
Every single one is important!!
Totally true. Words of Affirmation is my second place love language (and it’s barely beat out by Quality Time) and I love hearing exactly these things!
