The relationship between a husband and wife is a very sensitive affair. It has to be based on mutual trust, love and care as well understanding. Much effort goes into maintaining the relationship. Both the husband and wife have to make that extra effort to show their love for each other. Any kind of neglect on each other’s part could lead to a termination of the relationship or end up as relationship with no sparks.
* Keep you language G-ratedWhile it is true that bad language is not isolated to the men, most women appreciate a husband who is verbally respectful and has a command of the English (French or German) language. It has been said that when one must resort to foul language—male or female—it is because he/she lacks the intelligence to compose their words in any other fashion. Talk to her like you did on the day that you met her.
* Open her door and walk closest to the streetWhen you are taking your wife out on a date, polish up your social skills and open her car door, leave her at the curb if it is raining, and when the night is almost over and you suggest a midnight stroll, walk on the outside nearest to the cars. Chivalry is not dead, just dormant.
* Learn to danceYou will feel much more confident on the dance floor, rather than seated in a chair, while watching your wife cutting a rug with your best friend. Suggest a dance class with your wife and learn how to salsa, tango or ballroom dance. Anything is better than awkwardly watching from afar.
* Get rid of your outdated disco-dating clothesUnless you are a part of the mob or studying for the priesthood, the all black, monotone look from head to toe, including your hair and mustache is a little too harsh.
* White socks are goofy if not worn with confidenceYour old high school sport socks should be quickly replaced with clean, new dress socks to go with your corporate image. Don’t wait for your wife to throw them away, do it for her. P.S. Black dress socks with tennis shoes is another roadblock to impressing your wife with your stylish flair.
