Gentleman, so many times the woman who loves you will cover you but you are too proud to see it. When a woman loves, she grows patient in her nurturing ways and she will pull alot of strings to benefit you; but don’t take her for granted. Far too many women are going to bed hurt and crying silent tears as they wonder how to make their marriage work, don’t put her through that. Alot of women hide their tears from their man because they feel he doesn’t care and introducing an uncomfortable topic will destroy the marriage. So many wives feel unappreciated… Thank her for the many times she has been there for you, covered your weaknesses and tolerated your behaviour.
.. And ladies, even as you fight for your husband in secret, don’t forget about you. Being a loving wife doesn’t mean you be foolish and you stop loving yourself. Before you are a wife or a mother, you are an individual. Don’t forget you
