    I get that men’s sense of security comes from financial success but to say that it’s the women ,who are being physically and emotionally neglected and having to do all the chores and childcare etc…. ,that must just accept the situation and be more supportive and accepting of the situation is just completely one sided! Why must a women’s well-being have to suffer because a man has issues with the need for financial success?
    What about a woman’s needs? They’re not important? What a man wants and needs takes priority over a woman’s? I don’t think so!
    A partnership is 50/50. You support each other. A woman’s life is not less valuable than a man’s. Yes, a woman should support a man while he works and tries to make a success of himself but he also needs to support his woman by showing her affection and making some time for her and his kids. It’s all about COMPROMISE!
    Why must the woman arrange a surprise date? Why can’t the man do it? She doesn’t know when he has a moment in his busy schedule because he never has time for her.
    It doesn’t actually take that much to keep a woman happy, yet men always think it does. Just show your woman some attention a few times a week. Make her feel special and thought of. Kiss her, tell her you love her, ask her how she is. Tell her she’s beautiful. Initiate intimacy a couple of times a month . Make a her a coffee, take her out for a quick lunch where you can chat about other things rather than work. Have a laugh together.
    Just look into her eyes to let her know that you know she still exists.
    A woman will always give the world back to her man for the little things he does in return that make her feel special.
    We don’t appreciate feeling like mothers and servants to our husbands. Doing their laundry, food shopping, childcare, cooking and cleaning all the time whilst we ALSO work!
    No! Your advice about how men are feeling is right, but to expect women ,who are unhappy due to neglect, to be submissive and give the very things to her husband that he himself is starving her of, is just a joke.
    Any other man who comes along and shows a neglected wife some attention will risk losing her through an affair. And why not? Just as a man has a need for financial success to make him feel more of a man, a woman has need to feel beautiful, sexy, loved and desired. So why aren’t our husbands giving us what we need?
    Men need to compromise also if they want a happy and loyal wife. It is not a woman’s duty to sacrifice her happiness for a man. And a man shouldn’t expect her to. Wives are not servants. They are life PARTNERS.
    I love my husband and I appreciate all the hard work he’s doing. I really do! I even help him with his business and encourage him. I show him affection and make sure he has a good diet and so on.
    But there is a point when men start to just expect this from their wives all the time and exploit it. They don’t even think about what they could be doing for their wives to support them in their roles or to show their appreciation for their support. For women it becomes a thankless task and we become bored and tired and then resentful.
    Men quite easily become all too consumed with their needs only. They seem to lose the capacity to think beyond themselves and their work. Instead of expecting women to be submissive in order to make a man feel powerful , maybe it’s about time men started addressing their issues and insecurities also instead of just telling women to go and sort out theirs .
    A successful partnership is when partners work as a team together!

    If you are raising children, you need your spouse home an adequate amount of time because you need help and you need family time. You can’t say “wife, just make yourself more busy so you don’t notice his absence…” we ARE busy and we need him there to be with the family because in part, we are too busy. We want him there with us.

    These tips are sexist and wife blaming. The fact of the matter is if the husband is a workaholic, that is selfish behavior, and can sometimes lead to emotional abuse. I’m saying this as a mental health counselor. Under no circumstance is it the wife’s responsibility to convince her husband that they are worth it. If you are going through this, this is what you should do:
    Step 1: Respectfully and lovingly express your concerns to your husband, and ask for what you need. Step 2: If step 1 doesn’t work, you should reach out to his male friend or relative to sternly (with love) give him advice, to wake him up. This is for him to see that if he doesn’t change his behavior l, he’s going to lose his family.
    Step 3: If that doesn’t work, then marriage counseling must begin.
    Your spouse should always be the most important person in your life, then kids, then work, then social life, etc.

      I needed this advice ten years ago. My husband’s priorities: Work, Social life, Wife, and kids. One day after years of being hyper focus I told him to change his priorities, or I’ll change our relationship. We are still fine-tuning priorities, but at least they are in the correct order. Thank you.

      @HappilyCommitted  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would recommend communicating that need in a way that he will understand. Often time, we fall into a pattern of "nagging" our partners which results in them detaching even more. If you feel you have tried everything and they still refuses to invest time in the relationship, I would recommend taking a step back a re-evaluating.

    My husband is a workaholic. I also earn well so I just go on holiday with my friends instead if he’s too busy. I feel he is ambitious because he doesn’t want me to out earn him. He’s freelance and I’m working for big tech. Our relationship is sad though because we’re not doing couple things. His fault for being a boring shit. What about the man changing his own negative mindset? What if he can’t be successful because the woman is able to earn more? Shouldn’t he accept his role as the homemaker?

      @Dunmer Doomer I have but the answers are not answers he give answers like if you don't want me to hold the car just say so or if you call and I don't pick up right away that means I'm cheating I'm not your little kid... you know answers which are not answers but yet phone is with him 24/7 as though he is afraid to put it down. We do not go out as much, we have not been sexually active for 3 to 4 months etc.. The only reason why I leave room for benefit of the doubt is just because if I do call he does answer majority of the time and 90% of the time he tells me where he is going. So do I think he is sleeping around NO do I think he is talking to someone else YES

    My husband rarely at home not because he want to be workaholic and he knows I get lonely at home alone. It just his work place demand him to overwork.
    Sometimes I feel bad for complaining about such thing as many people are jobless because of corona, but not allowed to take his days off is ridiculous. He is a human, even machine can get over heated if get overworked. He even get into an argument with his manager once because being forced to work at his supposedly day off.
