Men are extremely independent they try to do the best they can to be the bread winner, support their wife's, work, and help with the kids the best they can. Most men like to think of themselves as macho or bad boy, but deep inside some of them are very sensitive, show their emotions, and likes to be nurtured just as much as women. Just because they are a man doesn't mean you can't show them how you appreciate them or how you feel about them. Men like to hear loving remarks just as much as us if not more. Here are a few things I feel will make the man happy and keep things sparking:

1. Boost his ego- Now most men won't admit this, but they do want to hear every now and then how much you love them, how much you love their body, and how hot they make you feel when you are around them. So when you see your man give a little squeeze at his biceps or even his butt and tell him honestly from the heart how strong of a man he is and how you can't keep your hands off of him. This might make him feel very studly, more confidence, and loved because you are paying tribute to his protective side or manly side.

2. Show him that you interested in his hobbies- If he enjoys football surprise him even if you don't care for the game that much without asking you. Grab a pillow, blanket, some popcorn, and sit and watch the game with him. You can even record the game for him if he isn't home from work yet. Maybe while watching the game during the commercials have him explain to you what the game is about if you're really not familiar with it. Grab his hand, massage his back, massage his neck or just plant a kiss on him during the commercials. Don't just sit there like a bump on a log and think to yourself OK when is this darn game gonna be over. Enjoy it you will be surprised sometimes how interested you will become, you might even end up liking it more than him. Your man enjoys what you do so why can't you enjoy what he does? This will benefit the two of you and bring you closer together.

This was a very wonderful article. I have been lucky enough to find someone who enjoys a lot of the same things that I do such as football and basketball. I don't watch them near as much as he does but it still gives us something to discuss the rest of the night.

hmmm, the feminist in me wants to scream "are you kidding?" but I guess its just that the some of the suggestions seem old fashioned. I aleady make dinner most nights but thats because I work at home so its easier for me to get it started, and I'm willing to swap a massage for a massage, but if he has a bad day at work he needs to leave it at work! I do believe in not bringing up past issues when in an argument. Sticking to the point may be hard to do but bringing up everything they've ever done wrong tends to make men shut down and you don't get anywhere. Whew, I still can't decide if I'm offended or not! That means this was a good article!

This is excellently written although I think both spouses should be equally appreciative of each other. Right now, with us as long as things get done and done well and we're grateful to each other, that works well for us. Great Article though!

Ok I am somewhat between this article and Myra - I have been happily married for nearly 25 years and we have never once considered seperation let alone divorce but I assure you if he had ever expected dinner on the table every night when he walked in we would have! With 5 kids, jobs, lessons, classes 10 acres,a home, elderly in laws, coaching, volunteering, church activities we still manage to eat as a family at least 5 nights a week and often all seven but it is a group effort! I appreciate the thought here but I am thinking as those 3 angles grow and the two of you are always going in multiple directions you will cherish date night and family dinners over having him fed and happy when he walks in! I'm guessing you are married to the type of guy who pitches in and appreciates all that you do :-)

My hubby will love this.

This is all fine and good if you are not also a woman that works outside the home! I agree with many of the points, but like anything else, you can go over the top with these! I think that these activities should go both ways....the husband/man should be the most important adult in the womans life and the woman/wife should be the most important adult in the mans life! Nicely written, though! :)

Thanks for the reminders! (Now some wives could use some treatment like that also! LOL!)

Uhhm Myra must be a miserable single woman who has been married and divorced 100 times LOL (that is the type of woman that makes my skin crawl)....... anyhoot :) I agree with this and if he is all for what you do for him - YAY! That is wonderful and a perfect example of a great marriage. WE MUST be traditional marriage practices from the 50's to make it work - am I right or am I right??? lol

OMG have his dinner ready when he walks in the door - what is this 1955? Listen to him - hell kiss his feet, we all know you're nobody wthout him is that it? You shouldn't be in a position you are worrying about his day, his mood, if he will will be upset or worring about what you can and can't say! That isn't a marriage it is a spoiled child and his mommy! YUCK
