Ladies, have you ever thought to yourself, “Man, I wish I knew what he was thinking” or “What does he talk about with his friends?” Then you need to go visit Reddit. It’s like the male stream of consciousness and it is absolutely fascinating.
Well, I take a look on there every once in a while and around Valentine’s Day there was a conversation going on about what guys would like for the holiday of love. There were some obvious jokes about sexual activities and steak (true story: March 14th is Steak & BJ Day according to dudes… just so you know), but then I came across this little gem:
I honestly wondered how many of our husbands could have written this.
How many husbands just need a thank you?
How many men in our lives do their very best to make us happy and we treat their efforts as trivial or, worse, demand more?
It’s easy to pretend our husbands don’t have feelings. That they are indifferent and cold. But it’s not true, ladies! And it’s not fair.
Do you really think your husband woke up today thinking, “How can I make her mad? How can I let her down? How can I ignore her and her needs?”
I don’t think so, either.
If hasn’t been beaten up too much, he probably woke up wanting to make you happy. He woke up wanting to be your hero. He wants his contributions to your family to be seen, not taken for granted.
Look at your husband today and say thank you. Say thank you for the big and small ways that he makes your family a priority. Say thank you and let him know that who he is and how he serves you and your family matters.
Look at your husband today and take time to truly see him.
Discussion: Wives, what are you going to say thank you for today? Husbands, what do you wish your wife would acknowledge? Anyone got any special plans this March 14th?
