Great article. My wife and I had a discussion last night that we have been married for almost eight years. We have dated since 2011. We are more in love and more secure with each other than ever. Slowly my wife has taken a greater role as leader of our marriage. We have improved our level of communication with a more direct style. She tells me exactly what she wants. I put her needs first and above my own. I love it because I don’t have to guess what she needs. When you feel secure in your marriage you can let go and enjoy the time you spend together. I personally am not looking at how she fulfills my needs but focused on how I can fulfill her needs and pleasing her. She will tell me remember to be more patient and don’t get frustrated. I strive to remember this because I want to be a better husband.
One thing I can say is to look for the good in the relationship and be grateful every day.
