9 Secrets Men NEVER Tell Their Wives (and Why)

2. He doesn’t feel appreciated enough

One thing is very obvious after all the conversations therapists have with their patients: people do not feel appreciated enough in their marriages, which mostly leads to low self-esteem or even worse, depression. That’s why it is crucial to let your partner know how much you value their assistance or efforts for this reason.

And we all know that men express their affection in a different way because they are typically more action-oriented than women. To make you happy, your husband might order some food or take out the trash, which is just another way of saying “I love you” without saying it. To avoid any frustrating feelings that he might have, try to talk to him more often.

    Why do you not include the sane question to women? Why ? Because women have Been a 3rd no 4th rate in relationships behind on line games, I’ll do it later and Why are you bitching at me to do that???,, get your damn story straight. Things are not fair now and will NEVER be fair in relationships. Love??? It’s fake. It’s not real it’s bullshit! It sucks you in and then BAM! your the maid. Dude I hate your article!

    This site should of said you have to pay in the end to get your results. They made it sound like it was free. I feel, I wasted so much of my time already answering so many personal questions. I feel violated and wish I could take all my information back. In this economy my husband and I are lucky enough to pay our WiFi to go on the computer. I’m disappointed. Live and Learn!

    #8 It’s not a good idea to mention that “she will stand by him no matter what”. The subject has to be in a conversation before that is mentioned or the man will wonder why she said that! His confidence could be shattered.

    We live solely on Social Security, which makes paying our bills is a struggle. He does not use the computer and I fear that the time will come when he will have to take over out finances. I worry about this, but haven’t told him about it. We also have an adult child living with us in a small home, which adds stress for me.

    Why bother? The biggest secret in posts like this can be summed up in three words. WAIT FOR IT! WAIT FOR IT!!

    I don’t feel like reading 40 or 50 teaser paragraphs to find your answer. And in those paragraphs leading up to your answer is the same lead in repeated over and over again. Forget it.

    He’s afraid to tell his wife ( female ) that he prefers to wear Tunics ( Dresses & Skirts & Blouses ) because the wife will discriminate against him and throw him out of the house but it’s perfectly acceptable for her to wear Anything she wants. She also thinks he must be Gay which is not the case he just as Straight as she is. Women just like the Church and AMERICA Society looks down on the Men who prefer wearing Tunics ( Dresses, Skirts and Blouses ) because the clothes are more comfortable because of the openness of the dresses and skirts cool to wear. Most men have a mind block thinking that the dresses and skirts are Just for women which there not but are for both men and women.
    Who’s the fault the Psychologist the Church ( Deuteronomy 22-5 being misinterpreted ) Jesus will be coming back REVELATIONS 1-13 wearing a Tunic.
