How to make your husband feel loved

I made a big list of marriage topics a while back, and this was one of them: how to make your husband feel loved. I’m sure I’ll do a wife version soon, too, so don’t worry.

Marriage is a beautiful bond between two individuals who love and cherish each other. However, it takes a lot of effort and understanding to keep the relationship going strong, especially when it comes to making your partner feel loved and appreciated. For women, expressing love can come naturally, but for men, it’s not always easy. So, what makes a man feel loved by his wife in their marriage? Let’s find out!

Respect

Respect is crucial in any relationship, and it’s no different in a marriage. Men value respect as it makes them feel appreciated and acknowledged for who they are. As a wife, you can show respect by being attentive, listening to his opinions, and valuing his contributions in the marriage.

Physical Intimacy

Physical intimacy is essential in a marriage as it creates a deep emotional connection between partners. Men tend to feel more loved and appreciated when they are physically close to their partners. This doesn’t just mean sex, but rather small gestures like holding hands, cuddling, and even hugging. These simple gestures go a long way in showing your husband that you love and appreciate him.

Compliments

Everyone likes to be complimented, and men are no exception. Compliments make men feel good about themselves and boost their self-confidence. As a wife, it’s essential to compliment your husband on his accomplishments, physical appearance, and even on the small things he does around the house. These compliments will make him feel appreciated and loved.

Time

Spending time together is an important aspect of any marriage. Men feel loved when their wives make time for them, whether it’s watching a movie together, going on a date night, or just talking about their day. Spending quality time together helps to strengthen the emotional bond between partners and makes them feel loved and appreciated.

Acts of Service

This is a big one in my marriage. Acts of service are a way of showing your husband that you love and care for him. Men feel loved when their wives do things for them, such as cooking their favorite meal, doing their laundry, or even cleaning up after them. These small gestures make them feel loved and appreciated. When this is applied both ways, that is HUGE. My wife’s biggest love language, is Acts of Service.

Trust

Trust is the foundation of any relationship, and it’s no different in a marriage. Men feel loved when their wives trust them and have faith in their abilities. As a wife, it’s important to trust your husband and show him that you have confidence in his decisions.

Communication

Communication is key in any marriage. (I wrote a few posts on this topic) Men feel loved when their wives communicate with them openly and honestly. As a wife, it’s essential to listen to your husband’s concerns, share your own thoughts and feelings, and work together to find solutions to any problems that arise.

To wrap this one up, there are several ways to make a man feel loved by his wife in their marriage. It’s essential to show respect, physical intimacy, give compliments, spend quality time together, do acts of service, trust, and communicate openly and honestly. These small gestures go a long way in creating a deep emotional connection between partners and keeping the love alive in the marriage.

Blessings!
