I to not tend toward nagging or insulting my husband, and love to hear him share his heart, but as I was reading this I realized that lately my responses lean toward "friendly criticism" when what he needs is listening ear. Thank you, for this post. It has opened my eyes to an area I had not recognized in myself.<br />New follower, and I will be looking forward to reading more. <br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mysnugglybugs.com">Ours+His+Mine=Nine!</a>"Andiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01648991172318084001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-49842286223899453412011-06-25T05:40:55.761-07:002011-06-25T05:40:55.761-07:00Maxabella~

She wants her way and will do whatever she needs to to get it. I am a very strong woman in my beliefs and convictions, so there is a difference in what I am talking about in this post. So I am not exactly sure where you disagree with me!Always Learninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15764938913852283082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-79726765925855705312011-06-25T03:29:39.081-07:002011-06-25T03:29:39.081-07:00Whoa, Lori.

I like to read as deep as I can into your posts - because I know that superficially you and I would seem vastly different, but at heart we are much the same.<br /><br />Today, I take this: I am loyal to my man. I don't talk about him behind his back and I don't try to change the way he is. We work together to make a home - we share tasks equally and wholeheartedly. I wouldn't criticise the way he spends his down-time and he doesn't criticise the way I spend mine. But BOTH of us have to earn that downtime. Together. And, believe me, my man cherishes this strong woman with all his heart!!! xMaxabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15761220164069379437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-57530186431656406522011-06-24T21:01:31.972-07:002011-06-24T21:01:31.972-07:00It's always, always, always right to live our ...It's always, always, always right to live our lives not according to what our culture dictates but according to the word of our Lord Jesus.<br /><br />I pray the Lord will join me to a wife that I can love as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her.Christian's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14370682040763157860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-31878903652487447052011-06-24T10:22:42.004-07:002011-06-24T10:22:42.004-07:00Followed you on GFC from the Finding New Friends W...Followed you on GFC from the Finding New Friends Weekend Hop! Please follow me at www.twiceblessedlife.com :)<br /><br />I think the main obstacle for most women is the lack of reciprocity. Some husbands, unfortunately, will take everything you give them, but won't have a clue regarding returning the favor. And women are too long-suffering - they steam over it until it boils over and then WHAMMO!! let the poor guy have it with both barrels!<br /><br />I recommend "Laugh Your Way To A Better Marriage" by Mark Gungor. He's a Christian counselor and it's his DVD of his two day workshop for couples. He shows men and women how to confront their own flaws, yet to understand how their partner's mind works, and how to practice the reciprocity. He's extremely funny, and my own husband didn't have a problem watching it with me - unlike how he received my shrieking at him :) The DVD worked much better for BOTH of us to get what we want out of the relationship.ShinyIndigohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835407877170566776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-32745660487701275952011-06-24T09:59:21.504-07:002011-06-24T09:59:21.504-07:00Wonderful post!

My husband and I try not to get on each others cases about our choice of tv shows, hobbies, etc. I accept that he likes to watch the history channel and spend summer days at the beach (which I don't enjoy). He accepts that I love watching reality tv and watches the kids so I can enjoy a weekend shopping trip with my girlfriends. Luckily there are tv shows and hobbies that we both enjoy together. Wives should support their husband's interest. As husbands should do the same. That makes a happy marriage!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-36457301896846591662011-06-23T09:42:19.514-07:002011-06-23T09:42:19.514-07:00Great post!Great post!Lisa Weidknechthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06564377503507171734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8046083858777525940.post-34930478550103260872011-06-23T09:28:04.489-07:002011-06-23T09:28:04.489-07:00Such great advice.

Sometimes we look at the TV viewing as an insult...give him a blessing instead and take him a glass of tea to drink while he watches...then you will get a blessing in return!! I was taught that marriage does not take place on a romantic balcony, but on a spiritual battlefield...confirming what you said!!Pam @ over50feeling40https://www.blogger.com/profile/15271159201006142602noreply@blogger.com
