How to Be a Great Husband
This is the most challenging and rewarding things you'll ever do. A womanneeds to feel as though she is the love of your life.
 
Steps
1.Enjoy pleasing her. Women need to feel appreciated. Verbalappreciation goes a long way in making a woman feel valued. A wifelikes to know that you feel lucky to be married to her.2.Have as your goal for each small interaction of your day, to leaveher with a good feeling. Be supportive. Be considerate. Be kind. Berespectful at all times. Give her compliments about the way shelooks, if she did a good job at something, ANYTHING!! It will reallymake her feel good.3.Tell her you love her when you hang up the phone with her, leaveher, and generally as much as possible without being annoying orcheapening the phrase. You never know when your time is up soalways remember to make sure she knows how much you love her!4.Always greet your wife with a hug and kiss that says that you'rehappy to see her and do the same when you leave her to say youwill miss her.5.Find new ways to express your love other than with kisses and thewords "I love you." Tell her what you love about her, what makesher special, what you appreciate. This will help your love to grow aswell as hers.6.Be her greatest supporter. Be someone she knows that she canalways count on. Be there for her when she has had a long day.Listen to her with attentive eyes and ears. Back her up "100"percent! And always protect her, both physically and emotionally. If you have done something to hurt her, even if you didn't mean to,tell her you are sorry and show her affection. This must be sincere!There's nothing worse than an "I’m sorry that is put on or phony.7.Talk to her about things that interest you, too -- don't worry toomuch that she'll be bored -- she'll be thrilled that you want to shareyour hobbies with her. If possible, try to find an aspect of yourinterest that she can join in with (if she doesn't already). The effortsyou make to help her enjoy what you enjoy will pay off enormously!8.Understand that your personal relationship should be moreimportant to you than your other family members, work, friends etc.
 
She is your partner in all things. Treat her as such. If you're worriedabout looking independent in front of them, then talk with your wifeand set clear expectations about what decisions you can makewithout each other, and what decisions must absolutely bediscussed. But also, ask yourself why you feel you should lookindependent instead of married. It may not be hard to say "Let metalk this over with my other half".

'
Take out the Garbage! Don't make her nag you into doingyour share of the housework. Identify what your share is and then stick to it regularly. Don't wait for her to remind you.' 
This makes her feel like a nag, and it creates an adult/childrelationship. Show her she can count on you to get things handled,especially the more labor intensive things like mowing the lawn.Keep up the house in good repair. Generally, women like their homesto look nice, particularly from the outside.10.Don't show her even the mildest forms of contempt. Contempt ispoison in a relationship. You don't have to act like you like what shesaid or did, but do not take on an attitude of superiority, even subtlyin passing, such as momentary smirking, sighs of disgust or eye-rolling. Such gestures, though seemingly insignificant, deeply showa lack of support, respect and trust, especially over a period of time.The way you naturally act towards her should subtly validate her asa person, even when you do not understand or agree with her.Giving eye contact when she has something important to tell youshows respect; not giving eye contact shows disrespect and that youdon't care about her or what she has to say. This will destroy anyattempt to communicate well.
11.
Be honest! Nothing will destroy a relationship faster than dishonesty.Even if its a little lie, an attempt to conceal pieces of information,avoiding telling her everything or not telling her where you're goingor where you've been, it causes a disconnection. There can be nointimacy without complete honesty. You both feel it. It can utterlydestroy the validity of anything else you say or do for her because if you lie about other things, she will surely not believe you when yousay "I love you." So, don't lie.
Always
tell her the whole truth.12.Put the needs of the other person first. That might sound like adifficult thing to do, but you just have to do it. You certainly can't beselfish. If your man enough to make that special lady your wife thenyou better be ready to man up and really make her your numberone!
 
Tips
When she's upset, listen, listen, listen. Resist the urge to offer adviceunless she asks for it, and don't get defensive. Just listen, and show herthat you are trying to understand. If she is upset with you, don't just tryto give her a hug like nothing happened. If you approach her like youunderstand what she is saying, that you will try harder (really mean it),and that it will be alright she will be willing to accept your gesture moreeasily.
Husbands and Wives live together but make sure you spend enoughquality time together. This means laughing, talking, just having funtogether. Make her see that wherever you are you feel like home whenyou are with her.
Praise
your wife in public, but if you notice something you'd like tocriticize, please find a private moment. It is VERY important to womenabout how they look to other people. Do Not make her look like the "badguy" or that really anything is wrong with her (even if there is). Theappropriate time to discuss those matters is when it is just the two of you,not in front of people when she will be embarrassed. In public make sureeveryone around you knows she is your girl! Hold hands wheneverpossible, kiss, hug, a tap on the butt, etc. To her you are letting everyoneknow you're off the market.
Be aware that she may not perceive love the same way you do. QualityTime, Gifts, Physical Touch, Verbal Affirmation, and Acts of Service are thedifferent "Love Languages" you and your wife might have -- make sureyou find out what hers is, and speak her "love language"!
Show up at home with just a flower or two; this will brighten her day andyou will make her feel like she is the most important woman in the worldbecause you took the time out of your day to think about her and showher that you love her.
Discuss your values together and make sure that they are compatiblebefore doing something permanent.
Discuss your financial dreams together and research and plan to achievethem together.
Continue spending time with her alone and cherishing her.
Tell her you find her attractive and why.
Never compare her to other women and never ogle them in front of her. Infact if you're tempted, switch your thoughts to her immediately andremind yourself that
she
is the one you desire.
Make sure you continue to grow and change; you may also become abetter and more exciting person with each growth spurt you undergo.
