Of all these “well meaning” advice, not very many people have addressed or advised me on how to be a better husband for my wife.

Much of the advice has been around the whole idea of my wife having to make sure that I am well fed.

On my wedding night someone said “we know she makes cake but it’s not just cake you will eat”

It’s amazing the burden placed on women to sustain a relationship and keep their husbands alive while very little is expected of husbands.

Not one person has even done the patriarchal balance of asking me to make sure she is taken care of financially (because broke boy).

All that said, the men that I know that are married have been a shining light of how not to be a husband. I’ll just not follow their lead.

If you have any advice on how my wife can be a better wife… Hold it. But if you know how I can be a better husband to her, speak up.

For as long as we’ve been together, strangers would strike up conversation and start pleading with her to make sure that she “keeps me”.

Without knowing anything about us or her. They assume that I’m so valuable, that she must bend and contort to please me…

Women are always given this spiel. Cos men are children to work on a love for reward basis allegedly… Even though that’s been proven false

To conclude! Here are reasons why I’m the one who is blessed and lucky. https://t.co/AYgEZFWe9J
