Wives are good

. . . at being a wife. Married women are good at pretending they are not tired, not sad, not bored, not angry, not enjoying things. Once a woman gets married or tied up with the "marital" status, they play a good role of protecting their family. They also protect the status of each member of their family. Married women are very versatile and committed to what they have promised. These are things good things I have thought of that once a woman becomes married, they become like this. What do you say about this? Am I wrong? Or I am blinded by the fact that I am new in the married world? Happy Valentine's Day every one!

I would like to think that I am a good wife to my husband. I do and have done everything that I know I should just to make my husband happy and proud of me as well. But also, I have to admit that I am not perfect. And sometimes, when a wife seems to be getting cold with the relationship, the husband should be alarmed and try to know what is really wrong and help solve the problem in order to save the marriage. Unfortunately, some husbands , because if being tied up for so long, just think that their wives will always be okay no matter what. Wives could make themselves a martyr, but not all the time. To become a good wife, the husband should also do his part to become a good partner.

Welcome to the Married world! I agree with you.. most of the married women are like what you have just mentioned.. but unfortunately some are not. Some are not very good in keeping quiet when they're tired, not sad, not bored, not angry, not enjoying things. Well some are not just good at pretending, especially when they already have kids and doesn't have a good relationship with their husbands... Not treated well by their men. They're so stress out they cannot see the beauty of married life anymore.. A woman really changes especially when she being tied with the one she really loves, when she's being given the responsibility of a wife..

I think both husband and girls play great role in married life. I think it is good to get married and understand the partner and to love the partner and then it will be successful marriage.

Married women are in a position where they are expected to be the best she can be. She is expected to be a good wife and a mother to her children. Career women who juggles their jobs with being a mother and a wife as well is at a stage in their life where they are expected to do a lot of things and to do these things with all their heart. This is a very hard thing to do. I am a career woman, a newly wed and a mother. It is very hard to manage time for work, for my husband and for my child. I always want the best for my family and sometimes I really get frustrated with the outcomes of the decisions I have been doing in my life. Though frustrated, I have to put a brave face, because my family especially and child is depending on me. All I can do is to pray that God gives me the courage, the strength and the guidance to be able to be the best wife and mother I could be.

i was like this when I was married, but I'm not married any longer and am still like this. As a parent I protect my family who happens to be my daughters.

Hi leateagee, I am sure all girls are good and want to protect their family and have a good married life. I think same is true with husbands too. The guys change too when they marry and have to take hugh responsibility of family and everything. So it is true for both. Husbands can be tired but still take out wife and kids for dinner if promised before.

Wives are good so states your heading! Well I hope so and indeed wives are supposed to be good. I can safely say that not all but most wives are good for there are also those who are not good. Anyway, I think once we become a wife we should be a good wife indeed. The Bible says in Proverbs 18:22 that "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.' Just imagine that Proverb written by King Soloman, the wisest man who ever lived. It is a big shame if you are a wife but did not live to that expectation of that great King. So a woman should do everything to make herself a good wife to his husband and a good mother to his children. That is is her duty and obligation not only to family but first and foremost to God.

It must be a cultural thing. I certainly don't plan to give up who I am once my boyfriend and I wed. If I'm sad or angry, he's going to know it--just as he does now. Why should I put on an act? What does the relationship gain from me lying about my feelings? What do I gain from lying about my feelings? Just because a woman gets married doesn't mean that she morphs into the "good little wife"--a subservient little creature who swallows down all of her emotions so as to keep Husband happy. No self-respecting woman would do that.

I think the character of the wives reflect to her family. There's a saying that goes "a happy mother makes happy children, a happy wife makes a happy husband". Of course the responsibility of the husband is still attached to it, a wife can't be happy is she is not happy with her husband, and the husband must be a good husband to make her wife happy, I hope you guys get my point. If the wife is really happy or just pretending to be one, you can see that in her family.

Women are are more hard working than men in the house. From garden, kitchen and house keeping, I can say how tireless they seem from AM to PM.
