Poem
Before I even start, this is for some women, not all. If it don’t apply, let it fly, but if the shoe fit, don’t be mad. People, people, people, why has society implanted in the mind of women/wives that they are the only ones should be happy and as long as the “wife” is happy, that’s all that matters? We’ve all heard this saying, “Happy Wife, Happy Life.” Now to be fair, there are some men whose happiness only comes from just knowing their wife is happy and they’re ok with that, but there are also some men who are stressed the f out behind this saying. When it comes to “Happy Wife, Happy Life,” I beg to differ. It should be Happy Spouse, Happy House, because both spouses should be happy. NEWS FLASH - Sorry to tell you wives, but when yall both got married to each other, both of yall said “I Do.” You said I do, well then do. “I do” mean, I do care about my husband’s feelings. I do care about his well-being, I do care about his happiness, just as he cares about mine. If the husband can go out his way to make sure his wife is happy, shouldn’t she do the same? Then again, what is “Happy?” Does that mean he has to buy her material gifts to “make sure” she is happy? Ok, so he buys you a new car, are you happy and if so, how long does that happiness last before you start bickering and complaining about something, anything, nothing? And if it’s nothing, you gon turn it into something. Women listen, there are times when you want your man home, but when he’s there all you do is nag and complain. If he’s “playing the game,” you got a problem with that, if he’s watching sports or relaxing, you got a problem with that, if he wants sex, you got a problem with that. You tired, you don’t feel like it and when you do, it's like, “c’mon shoot” with an attitude, like you are doing it just to shut him up. Where is the intimacy, the passion, the turn up and turn on for him? How many times is he supposed to hear you’re tired? Trust me, he tired of just hearing you tired. Please understand, it was something about YOU that he loved that’s why he married YOU and something about HIM that you loved, yall need to figure it out. I’m sure if it was like this before yall got married, yall wouldn’t even be married. Communicate, talk about it, find out what’s wrong and fix it. Men really do want to be home, they really do, but sometimes you women just gotta Chill. Away from the job and all the foolishness and issues of the world, your home should be a place of Peace. Your home should be your safe haven where the both of you can relax, unwind and just enjoy each other, not stress each other out. To the wives - Two people said, “I do.” So stop thinking it’s all about you. It’s not all about you, it’s all about two. Ask yourself, what do you as a wife think it will take to make you happy and keep you happy? Discuss your feelings with your husband. And then ask yourself, what real efforts are you putting forth to assure your husband is happy, truly happy? Now keep him happy. To the husbands - Continue to do what it takes to keep your wife happy, but also know, your happiness is just as important. Moral of the story - Make sure you have a Happy spouse and keep your home a Happy house.
