Be Supportive By Helping Him<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This myth might be the biggest homewrecker on the list.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because every wife wants to be helpful to her husband, but most of us don\u2019t realize that making helpful suggestions in wife language translates into criticism and disrespect in husband language.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of helping him solve his problem, consider reflecting back to him that he\u2019s smart and capable.<\/p>\n<p>Your faith in him means more than your tips on what to do ever could.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Find_Out_What_He_Wants\"><\/span>4. Find Out What He Wants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Of course you want your husband to be happy too, but here\u2019s the twist I never realized until after I had already driven my relationship into a ditch: the way to make your husband happy is to let him make you happy.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, <a href=\"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/make-your-marriage-happier\/\">make yourself happy<\/a> and appreciate him. Let him know how happy he makes you.<\/p>\n<p>Asking him what he wants so you can do it for him will never, ever be as magical as letting him be your hero.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Ask_How_He_Feels\"><\/span>5. Ask How He Feels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>My husband hates this one. He doesn\u2019t want to talk about how he feels.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve asked him before and he says, \u201cHungry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes he says, \u201cWith my hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because I\u2019m asking him about my area of expertise\u2014not his. So it would be like asking my husband about something girly\u2014like eyeliner or strapless bras.<\/p>\n<p>Women are emotionally brilliant, so that\u2019s our department.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of asking him how he feels, ask him what he thinks and ask yourself how you feel.<\/p>\n<p>That way, you\u2019re both sticking to your strengths.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Be_Willing_to_Compromise\"><\/span>6. Be Willing to Compromise<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I haven\u2019t compromised in my marriage for nearly two decades. Neither has my husband.<\/p>\n<p>How is that possible?<\/p>\n<p>Because we stick to our strengths. I\u2019m focused on my feelings and desires\u2014the seat of feminine power\u2014and he\u2019s focused on what he thinks is best.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it\u2019s impossible to have a conflict where one of us is wrong and one is right because we\u2019re not even in the same realm.<\/p>\n<p>Today I wanted to throw out the old phone that was crackling. He thought we should keep it because that phone is the partner of the other phone that works fine, and they\u2019re on the same system.<\/p>\n<p>After he told me his thinking, I wanted to keep the phone too.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, his thinking influenced me, and then my desire changed.<\/p>\n<p>We didn\u2019t come to a compromise because we didn\u2019t need one. We negotiated in our areas of strength and came to agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, I was the one who was influenced this time, but sometimes my desires influence his thinking and we reach agreement that way.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Be_Available_When_He_Is\"><\/span>7. Be Available When He Is<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s nothing wrong with being available when he is\u2014unless it means you\u2019re missing the fun class you wanted to take, or the girl\u2019s trip or the run you had planned.<\/p>\n<p>Doing the things that bring you joy are more important than rearranging your schedule to be home when he gets home.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll be way more attractive if you\u2019re filled up and happy when he sees you than if you\u2019re always there, waiting for him to make you happy.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Help_Him_by_Reminding_Him\"><\/span>8. Help Him by Reminding Him<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Want to make sure he remembers to get his oil changed? To pick up the kids? To drop off the mail or the dry cleaning?<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t have time to track his responsibilities because you\u2019re way too busy doing fun things, ideally.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s okay, because he\u2019s got it anyway. He can remind himself.<\/p>\n<p>He may exercise his right to be wrong at times, which can be a bummer, but hey&#8211;I can\u2019t even prevent myself from exercising my own right to be wrong at times.<\/p>\n<p>Reminding him to do things\u2014especially more than once\u2014will hurt the intimacy and take up the energy you need for important things&#8211;like laughing at pictures of recipe fails on Pinterest.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Its_Your_Job_to_Make_Him_Happy\"><\/span>9. It\u2019s Your Job to Make Him Happy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Okay, so this one could be true, but ONLY if you make him happy by letting him make you happy.<\/p>\n<p>In that case, you have this one just right.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as he feels successful making you happy again, he will be happier and more confident, too.<\/p>\n<p>For greater connection, playfulness and passion, the way to behave with your husband is like a woman who knows what she wants and gives that to herself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maybe your husband seems distant or cold.

I'm Laura. New York Times Bestselling Author I was the perfect wife--until I actually got married. When I tried to tell my husband how to be more romantic, more ambitious, and tidier, he avoided me. I dragged him to marriage counseling and nearly divorced him. I then started talking to women who had what I wanted in their marriages and that\u2019s when I got my miracle. The man who wooed me returned. I wrote a few books about what I learned and accidentally started a worldwide movement of women who practice The Six Intimacy Skills\u2122 that lead to having amazing, vibrant relationships. The thing I\u2019m most proud of is my playful, passionate relationship with my hilarious husband John\u2013who has been dressing himself since before I was born.","sameAs":["https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lauradoyle.org\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lauramdoyle\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/lauramdoyle\/","https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/intimacyskills\/","https:\/\/x.com\/lauramdoyle","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/lauradoyleauthor"],"url":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/author\/stmonday\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8051"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8051\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8051"},{"taxonomy":"app","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lauradoyle.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/app?post=8051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
