Some husbands are like soldiers, they are either issuing commands to their wives, or action. Please don't turn your home to a military barrack. Marriage is created to be enjoyed and not to be endured.
What are you hiding from your spouse? Ensure there is total trust in your marriage, and trust is impossible without truth.
Half truth is a clean lie. Families built on lies end up in shambles. Be truthful about everything.
Instead of complaining about your spouse, channel the energy to develop your marriage. The easiest way to change your spouse and improve your marriage is; first, have a desire for change; and second, invest your marriage. Good marriage is not a myth, it is possible. But, it takes work.
To help you strengthen your marriage, we have compiled 3 important things to do.
1. Understand your differences
Nothing succeeds in the absence of understanding. Not even prayers! Many marriages end up in shambles because of simple lack of understanding.
Unfortunmately today, many husbands don't understand that what ladies really want is attention and affection, not neccessarily. And many wives don't know that what most men call love is respect and sex.
If you truly seek to enjoy your spouse, take time out to understand him/her. What does he like, what does she need, what makes her happy, what pleases him? What you don’t understand, you cannot appreciate. What you don’t appreciate, you cannot enjoy.

Dear Husband
-
Don’t try to make your wife talk like
you or act like you. She is coming into your life with new potentials. Seek to
understand and appreciate her peculiarities. Whatever you appreciate, will
appreciate in value.
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according
to knowledge. . . .
1 Peter 3:5-7 KJV
Dear Wife
- Stop complaining! You can’t complain about your husband
and understand him at the same time. Many couples are
suffering in silence because they don’t seek to understand one another. You are his missing rib, he needs you. Find out his
weaknesses and how you can strengthen him.
Don’t be like Job’s wife; nagging and
pushing your husband.
2. Companionship and Selflessness
Who is your best friend and who do you long to spend time with? Well, I hope it is not that beautiful secretary lady, or that funny colleague at work?
The meaning of companionship is oneness, and that is the purpose of marriage. Oneness means intimacy in the body, soul and spirit. Don't let any foreigner take the place of your spouse in your body, soul or spirit. Guard your thousghts jealously..
Selflessness means putting the desires of your spouse above your personal needs; seeking to satisfy rather than to be satisfied. There is nothing that is more comforting than knowing that your spouse will go out of his/her way to facilitate your success/happiness/comfort.
