Meet her at the door, ask about her day, pick up flowers on the way home. Ten concrete everyday actions that make a wife bloom next to you.
How does a man show attention to his wife?
A man transforms the world around him — and his relationship with a woman — through his attention.
There are very concrete ways to develop it:
- Ask in the evening, “How was your day?” and listen carefully, without getting distracted by your phone and without drifting off into your own thoughts
- When your wife comes home, go out to meet her, kiss her, take whatever she is carrying and help her out of her coat
- When you are watching a film in the evening, you can ask, “Would you like some tea?” And then make it
- If your wife is doing any kind of housework and you have the time, you can offer to help
- If your wife has gone out shopping and you are free, you can call to find out where she is and walk or drive out to meet her and carry things
- When you are buying yourself something nice to eat, you can call her and ask whether to get some for her too
- If she is not home and you notice some mess or unwashed dishes, you can take care of it
- When your wife asks you for something, you can write it down and try to do it without needing 150 reminders from her
- When we walk past a flower shop, we can go in and buy a bouquet
- Regularly transfer her pocket money for whatever she wants, without her having to ask
In reality there are a great many ways to make the woman you love happy. All it takes is wanting to. The moment you make it your goal to direct part of your attention toward your wife, she will bloom next to you.
Some men might say, “My wife is a very difficult person, she frays my nerves and does my head in all the time. She doesn’t deserve that kind of treatment from me.”
I have a very simple idea for you: try being attentive and tender toward her for at least one month and see what happens to her. There is a very good chance that the “angry, high-strung woman” will turn into a tender, loving, caring wife — and a home you actually want to come back to.
Ladies, do you agree that a man’s attention can change everything in a relationship?

Texts give you understanding, but your situation is always more specific than any text. Fifty minutes is usually enough to see where the problem actually starts.
