35 Proven Tips to Keep Your Husband Happy and Satisfied

35 ways of pleasing your husband! A few decades back, this was perhaps the most important lesson that a mother taught to her daughter. It was a crucial life lesson, considering how a woman’s life fettered just within the walls of her house.

But today, there is a lot more on a woman’s plate!

From handling a company to controlling a country, women today are ruling the world.

As such, the conversation of pleasing your husband has taken a back seat!

And this has jolted the institution of marriage that was solely cemented by the woman in the house. There is an astounding spurt in the incidences of divorces. Men have not evolved much, but women have sailed seas.

This has dug a pit so big that marriages are falling off the creek.

Blame it on the stress, incompatibility, and ego-centric attitudes from both or the lack of mutual respect, trust, and love. 

But let’s face the harsh reality. This reality is not going to take us anywhere!  

We need each other for procreation, survival, for love. That’s why even after failed marriages people don’t give up on love. They try to find it again and again and again!

That’s why I am sharing this blog with all married people or those in love who can try these simple tricks to make the relationship work.

But before that check this out!

According to social scientists, after 3 years of marriage, men slip into any of these categories:

• 6% cooperate with their wives on all or most of the matters concerning their wives.
• 30% cooperate with their wives on some matters concerning their wives.
• 40% cooperate with their wives on only certain matters concerning their wives.
• 20% approve of only a few matters concerning their wives
• 4 % disagree on every issue concerning their wives

It would be much easy for you to shape your life if you know exactly which category your husband falls in. 

Busting a big bubble

One of the biggest misconceptions we all grew up with is that – a good wife can change her husband’.

First thing, people resist change, no matter for good or bad!

Change of character, behavior, and conduct of a man is possible only when he is a kid. A grown-up man won’t walk according to your vices.

If you think he would change miraculously after the day of marriage then it’s nothing but an illusion!

When people change, they don’t change because someone asks them to change. They change because they want to change. You can just motivate or support them in their path to change. But it’s on them to take that decision. 

An alcoholic drops the bottle only when something in him changes, internally. He does not drop the bottle because someone is cranky about it!

Similar is the thing about a smoker or a womanizer. It’s an internal change that triggers from within.

So, the relationship would hit a hard rock if you try too hard to change him. Especially if you don’t know the tricks of this trade!

Don’t keep doing the same things

Once a merchant saw a little bump on one side of his favorite red carpet. He leveled it by trampling on the bump. But then the bump appeared in another part. He leveled that also by trampling there also but yet again the bump appeared at another part.

Irked on repeating the same exercise again and again he just pulled up the carpet only to find a snake provoked by his repeated thrashing, pouncing on him!

So do not blow a problem out of proportion. Just solve it.

Walk with your man

Be it a social event or a dinner date, be with your husband! Be present in your relationship.
