Wife appreciation day

Mother's day, Father's Day, Friendship Day and......so many more. In this world of social media, these celebrations are gaining more and more popularity. We never had such celebration as we were growing up. We valued relationship each day. Today morning I read one blog on momspresso and I came to know of this new thing.... today is Wife appreciation day and husbands are supposed to appreciate their wives on this day for all that they do for the family. Where is it going to end?? I find such things insane or maybe I am wrong.. Don't you need to appreciate your spouse every now and then?? Or will you wait for a specific day to do so?? How many of you appreciate your wife?? Did you know about this day?

I wouldn't pay any attention to this. Husbands usually have to fork out for Mother's Day and that's enough. Like you, I like consideration and kindness every day, not just on a couple of special days each year.

@arunima25 That's true. There seems to be a day for everything.

I find that the whole world is going insane over these celebrations and especially social media promotes it like a viral. This day is still new to most but soon it might pick up popularity and a business model. We already have Valentine Day to express our love to our spouses and partners.

Maybe it is because the husband should give the wife a special day, where the wife will not work chores at home, but just be treated special and have dinner outside with the husband and family. Though, he may have given her an expression of love everyday, then maybe this day will be made so special since this is a Wife Appreciation Day. We don't have this kind of day here though.

I have not heard it so far. It was mentioned in one of the blogs that I randomly read. Wives can be treated special like that on several days.

I agree that there are too many days for celebration and appreciation. My husband appreciates me every day of the year as I appreciate him. No need to set aside a day for this.

We have the same principle in our marriage. That makes a marriage strong. Stay blessed.

I figured Mother's Day covered that. But maybe not because not all mothers are wives, and not all wives are mothers. Wives should be appreciated every day, not just one day a year. Maybe that's why I'm divorced and now a widow.

I feel everyone human should be appreciated for their efforts. Be it a wife, mother, sister, brother, father, colleague.........one deserves to be appreciated and we do not have to wait for a special day to do so.

Sincerely we are going to become robots with such celebrations. Relationships can not be significant for once a year.

so there will be lots of chauvenists saying 'yesterday was appreciation day - now get the dinner on' appreciation should be every day 365 a year

I hope you will appreciate your wife quite often when you have one. You need not wait for a day to do so.

My husband and I do not need a day to show appreciation for each other. We do it practically every day.

sounds hilarious, the wife day! Soon, everyday would be a day for something or someone which the stores could benefit themselves.

Everything is being commercialized. Definitely stores benefit a lot from these.

Of course, spouse should get appreciation everyday. But, hardly people care for it. So this day has been introduced so that people don't forget to appreciate their wife and give special attention to them at least one day.

Like we go gaga over women on Women's Day but their plight in real society continues.

I am not married. But I think the appreciation should be mutual. Just my thought.
