While men say that women are the most complicated, they aren’t completely true. Men are equally complicated but in their own ways. A lot of fights that occur among couples are due to the fact that it’s not very easy for men and women to understand each other’s perspective. We all want to be in a healthy and happy relationship, but we often fail to focus on the little things that matter.
Knowing your man isn’t limited to knowing his favorite football team or what he likes to eat the most. Men aren’t as vocal as women when it comes to communication. Which is why you need to shrewdly observe things to understand your man better. Here are the seven most important things that women need to know about their husband:
1. It’s Okay If He’s Not A Talker
Your man might not talk as much as you do. He may also not discuss everything that’s happening in his life without some asking from your side. However, he is a keen observer and he will remember things that you did and said in great detail. Men who aren’t great talkers are often great listeners and if you are the talkative one, he’s just perfect for you.
2. Beware Of His Ego
Men and their ego – something you need to be very careful while dealing with. Sometimes, men get fed up of their own ego and they want a break from it. They love to be in a place where they don’t have to hold up their ego and can be vulnerable – you are that place. They open up in front of you and remove their mask of ego because they trust you. This is why it is extremely important that you don’t hurt his ego.
3. Be The Fun Partner
Most women tend to get a little “parenty” on their man which is very bad for the relationship. He may find your nagging and controlling cute in the beginning. But he is definitely going to get sick of your constant interrogation pretty soon. It’s better that you suggest things like an equal partner than direct him to do things or advise him like his mother. He needs someone with whom he can have fun and be best friends with. If he loves to play video games, try playing it with him! You never know if you would be an awesome gamer or not.
4. He’s Not Soap-Opera Hero
Don’t set standards and limitations for your love life after watching soap operas and romcoms. Your partner may not be as romantic as the actors in them. But his love is true. There may be a lot of men who are expressive and romantic but not everyone is like that. While some have their way with the ladies there are others who are sweet and caring without even letting you know how much they’re working for it. Your man loves you in his own unconventional ways, and if you love him, you need to accept it and not compare him with other people.
5. He Doesn’t Like To Be Forced Into Things
Nobody likes to be forced into things and your man definitely hates it. Even if it’s something as small as forcing him to watch your favorite movie, it may annoy him. You can try and convince him but don’t push it.
6. He Wants His Guy Gang
Let him know that you are totally okay with him being the way he is. Give him some space so that he can hang out with his guy buddies. It doesn’t always have to be a couple thing; sometimes it can be a little bit about himself and he enjoys that.
7. Don’t Doubt His Love
Some women keep doubting if their partner loves them or not – don’t be that woman. If he makes an effort to be with you, he loves you. No matter how imperfect you think you are, he loves you because he respects and adores you.
Don’t worry if you haven’t explored and understood your husband completely because a lifetime of togetherness is not enough to understand a person fully. However, we hope that this article helps you look at things a bit differently and you get the rewards of it!
