How to be a fantastic housewife to your husband and make him feel cherished & loved
Taking good care of your husband as a housewife is so important! Not only does paying attention to your relationship strengthen your marriage, but making your husband happy is something that’s going to make you feel fabulous too. There’s nothing I love more than making my man feel loved and cherished, and it brings me great joy!
It goes without saying that healthy relationships are a two way street and your husband should be caring for you too, both emotionally and physically.
Whether you’re married or not, these tips can apply to anyone in any sort of relationship on how to make their partner feel cared for and cherished.
You’re probably thinking, well duh! The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Well this may not be entirely true, but it does make a man feel appreciated and loved to have a woman he loves cook for him. Prepare his favorite meals often and try to have something good for him on the table when he returns home from work. Bonus points if you’re wearing a cute vintage dress and apron while cooking for him. Extra bonus points if you make him a meal from a family recipe that he grew up with.
#2. Surprise him with meals
Men love to know you appreciate them and are thinking about them. Surprise him by bringing him a home-made lunch to work, slipping his favorite dessert or candy in his lunch or bring him a cup of his favorite coffee or tea. Pick up his favorite take-out for dinner when he arrives home or surprise him with a meal theme night of his favorite type of food.
Let him KNOW he’s appreciated! Be sincerely thankful and appreciative of all that he does for your family and let him know often. Thank him for all his hard work and compliment him on the things he’s good at. Tell him what an amazing father and husband he is and thank him for the blessings he brings to your life.
Take extra time in your day to dress up for your man in dresses you know he loves and appreciates. Pay a little more attention to your hair and makeup. Change your clothes daily and make sure you are fresh and showered. Valuing yourself, and taking care of yourself is so important and men appreciate a woman who takes time out of her day to look her best for him. There’s nothing better then coming home to a beautiful woman who adores you. Bonus points if he comes home to you in his favorite t-shirt or apron... and nothing else.
#5. Support his friendships
Give him time to himself to unwind and spend time with his friends. Support his friendships by offering hospitality to them and supporting their hobbies together. For example; On a Super Bowl night you can host gatherings with his friends and provide delicious snacks and drinks for them. Then hang back and give them space to spend quality time together.
Surprise him with a years worth of planned dates and spend quality time with him often. Plan at home date nights and watch movies or binge watch a TV series together. Take walks and hikes together and hold his hand or wrap your arm around his. Play board games together, or plan a surprise day that he would love. Make sure you unplug and put your phone down during your dates to give him your complete attention.
When he comes home from a long day at work, greet him at the door to take his jacket and belongings and be genuinely happy to see him. Surprise him with an unexpected passionate kiss, and offer him a drink or have a pot of coffee ready for him when he comes home. Depending on his line of work, you could also have a bath and fresh clothes ready for him to come home to.
Pray for your husband or partner every day! Believe in him and encourage him always, even when it may be difficult to do so. Make him a top priority in your prayers and in your days.
#9. Take care of his body
Let him know you care for him by cherishing his body as well as his mind. Surprise him with a nice shoulder or neck massage after work or on a car ride. Run your hands through his hair and stroke the sides of his face. Hold his hand in the car and massage his fingers and hands. Give him a head rub when he’s relaxing with you or massage his feet with oil or lotion and make him feel genuinely appreciated. Kiss him when he leaves for work and when he arrives home and never underestimate the power of a warm full body contact hug.
It goes without saying that one of the most attractive things to a man is taking excellent care of his family and children. Make the time to get to know his family as well and get along with them. Invite his family to your home often and encourage relationships with his family and friends. Surprise him with a framed family photo that he can use at his office or workplace.
#11. Create a morning routine
Get up earlier then your man so you can freshen up and look your best for him. Put on a pot of coffee and have it ready for when he wakes up. Set out his vitamins for him and consider surprising him with a gift like a monthly subscription to The Dollar Shave Club so his mornings go more smoothly as he heads to work. Greet him with a kiss and kind words when he wakes up and ask him if he needs help with anything. Pack a lunch for him and have a healthy breakfast for him that he can eat at home or take on the go if he’s in a rush.
#12. Create an evening routine
Make an evening ritual for the two of you that you’ll both come to look forward to and enjoy. Always go to bed together and wear things that you know he’ll enjoy. Read in bed together from one of his favorite books or a book you decide on together and read to him, or watch a TV show you both enjoy together before bed. Make your bed everyday and change the bedding often so it’s always fresh and inviting for you both. Set out cups of water on your bedtime table and any medications for the morning.
Let him know you’re thinking of him by sending him an encouraging text during his work day or a funny joke/meme to get him laughing. Slip a cute little note in his lunch or jacket pocket and write him a love letter for a special occasion. Make him a custom playlist for his drives to work and call him sometimes just to say hi and let him know he’s on your mind. Surprise him with a super sexy text (bonus for photos) during his work day and actually follow through when he gets home.
Let him know you genuinely trust him by asking for his advice and actually taking it. Ask him to teach you something he’s knowledgeable and good at and give him your complete attention. Allow yourself to be vulnerable and trust his leadership in your home. Believe in him and encourage him always. Be there for him and always listen to him, especially when he’s particularly stressed. He will appreciate it and feel like a true priority in your life.
Men absolutely love a woman that knows how to be thrifty and save money. Take the time to sit down and budget together as a couple and create a savings plan for a vacation together or something exciting you can both work towards. Shop frugally and live minimally to save your money and consider learning a new skill that will help you save money in your daily life.
#16. Take care of your home
Keep a clean, tidy and organized home! There is nothing worse then coming home after a long day to a mess or chaos. Make your home into an inviting, warm haven for you both, where you can relax and enjoy the time you have together. Create a cleaning and laundry schedule that works for you and make sure he always has fresh clean clothes for his workday.
Never compare your man to others and let him and others know how attractive he is to you. Slip in casual humble brags about him and build him up in front of other people. Tell your friends and family how amazing he is and how much you love him. This will make him feel so incredibly valued. Flirt with him often, both publicly and privately and display small affections. Do NOT overdo social media posts and tagging, a simple photo of the two of you every once in awhile will more than suffice. When a couple is truly happy and in love, they do not need to prove it to the world. Your friend and family circle is far more important.
You should be your man’s best friend. You are in a partnership and you should treat it that way! Help him work towards his goals and dreams, and always ask what you can do to make things easier or better for him. Get a gym membership and work out together to keep yourselves healthy and fit. Take care of things he might be dreading and help him with his household chores like yard work or garbage.
There is no better medicine then laughter and this is especially true in relationships. Try to find the humor and brighter side of any situation you’re in and laugh with your husband often. Share private jokes and get to know his sense of humor and what will bring a smile to his face. Send him things that you know would make him laugh or smile, and do things together that will encourage laughter and playfulness.
There is nothing more unappealing then someone who is fake or pretending to be something they’re not. Be YOURSELF, because he loves you and let him know you love him just the way he is too.
