6 Ways You’re Unknowingly Destroying Your Husband

1. Not Being Happy With What He Can Provide.

A lot of women find it difficult to accept it if their husbands cannot meet their various needs. Basic or luxury. Some women these days find it difficult to appreciate what their husbands can provide, if it does not meet all their demands and wishes. They constantly feel bad about the one wish that their husbands could not fulfil. They keep on complaining about it to their husbands and keep making them feel bad about it.

If you are one of these women, you are slowly destroying your husbands self worth in his own mind. He will feel devalued and unimportant. Slowly it can lead to confidence erosion and affect him at his work life. If you keep on feeding a thought of his failure to provide, into his mind every day, He may permanently change into a person he with low confidence and self esteem.

Although it is okay to sometimes genuinely show your concerns, make sure you do not get into a habit of blaming him for things that you both couldn’t afford.

Instead tell him how to manage whatever you people have, learn to increase your combined effort to meet your demands. It is a group effort. And if you just concentrate on his failure to earn more you should also think about your failures to save whatever little you could.

2. Constantly Focusing On The Negatives

Women are usually have very simple demands, and when your partner even fails to understand them you tend to feel really frustrated. We know it can be natural. But constantly focusing on his negatives and telling him on his face every single day will only lead to a suffocating marriage. Sure we understand he forgot to mend the pipes again or even forgot to pay the electricity bills. But tell yourself that who doesn’t forget? Try to evaluate and remember his positives more. Remind yourself of the last good thing he did. It doesn’t have to be grand. A simple something. Make yourself realise his good points too. For a happy marriage, your state of mind is really important.Constant nagging can badly damage and your marriage. It can be the start of destroying your husband. Try to focus on your strong points as a couple. Always remember men love to come back to a happy women.

3. Putting Him Far Down On Priority

One of the most unknowing ways you’re unknowingly destroying your husband is by making him a very low priority in your life. You may do it intentionally or not. But women who cannot find time for the man in their life will surely fail as a partner.

We, women, have to single handedly manage the entire house and kids. We understand that it can be a real pain to take time out of the busy life and motherhood. You also may have careers that demand time, probably even friends and family that need constant support from you. But, all through this if you are leaving behind your most important partner then you are making it hard on your own self.

Every partner deserves his wife/husbands attention, there is a reasons we are called life partners right?

Whenever there is a fight, no matter how much you would want it to but you withhold sex. When you keep on doing this it will slowly wear him out and he will become okay with it. Slowly he won’t even come after trying to make you happy after a fight.

The road is only downhill from here, Sex should never be used as a tool. It is a great way to bond with your husband, emotional and spiritually. It is something that should be kept out a fight always.

Do not behave cold and disinterested after a fight. Makeup soon and if he convinces you try and become happy quick. He will appreciate you more and you can have a better married life.

If you expect them to pick up on your hints and deliver exactly what you hope then you are sure destroying your husband and marriage. It is very easy to feel disappointed when our expectation aren’t met. We know the pain. But do not put the burden of understanding your unclear messages on them. It is not in their DNA and no matter how well you teach them they can always potentially forget everything. This is one of the things that destroy a marriage, stay away from this road.

6. Taking No Effort

It can start with you feeling comfortable wearing pajamas all day, slowly you don’t want to take a bath, and later you even stop caring about looking pretty. It is not just about the appearance bit. A lot of women stop making efforts in so many regards. You don’t want to learn sharing the TV even once, you complain you just don’t want to watch his game even when he seems so excited about it. Or even about your day out. It is just grocery stops or mandatory social events.
