How would you define a good wife?

Question

This question is addressed especially to Christian guys.

Answer 1

Your wife, should be your best friend and lover. The mother of your children, the one true person that you can always rely on. The person you share your inner most secrets, dreams and fears with. The one you can laugh and cry with and lean on when things are tough. The one person who will never judge you and accept you for who you are and love you unconditionally.

Answer 2

Well, first if she's Christian as well (I mean trying daily to live like Christ) then that would be a good start. A good wife is generally happy for what she has and doesn't b*tch about what she doesn't have. Too many women out there focus on what's lacking and don't even realize how lucky they are. Loyalty above everything else. Supportive of the positive things and stern on any negatives brought into the relationship. She brings something to the table and doesn't leach off her husband demanding things for giving nothing in return. She takes care of herself physically and doesn't let herself go within the first two years. Well, I guess that's about all I'd need. You see her send her my way.

Answer 3

No marriage is perfect [if you think is it you are in denial]. We all have different personalities and that can sometimes create conflict. It is how we deal with those conflicts that define our quality. You may expect many different answers to this question as there are many different types of people who expect many different things from a good wife [or husband].

My wife is honest, caring and emotionally supportive. When she does bug me about stuff I know that it is because she loves me and wants the best for me [it still bugs me though].

Answer 4

Being a good wife or a good husband has more to do with their partners perception than with actual fact.
You can (and I have) loved someone totally and unconditionally. Our s*x was fantastic, I thought. Until she stepped out on me.
Later I found out what good s*x is really like, and determined that without the cloud of love to hide it, she was the lousiest lay of my life (and NOT because of what she did to me!)
Oh yes, we were each others first! (And she was a childhood sweetheart. I figured out after everything was done, that I had been in love with her as far back as I could remember, when I was about 4 y.o.)
Being attracted to her that early, I had made her my 'soulmate', and that was bad for me. I still sometimes miss the illusion I lived under for 4 years.

Answer 5

I think that a good wife (and husband for that matter) sees their marriage not only as friends and lovers, but as partners. Mutual respect and support of each other. As long as the wife takes care of the husband, he will in turn take care of her. Or so it should be anyway. A good wife prays with her husband. They are a team striving to achieve set goals. Anyway thats off the top of my head what a good wife is.

Answer 6

This would very depending on who you ask and what that person is looking for. I believe i am a very good wife with Strong christian background I try to live up to Proverbs 31 no I am not there yet but i try to do the best that i can do. My husband and I are open with each other about our needs and I strive to meet his and he strives to meet mines.
Good luck

Answer 7

One who knows the meaning of the word love and isn't just after men for their money. One who's independent enough to get by just fine on her own but chooses to be with a man for the love and companionship. One who believes that everything should be an even 50-50 give and take and neither partner should take advantage of the other.

Too bad I was born on the wrong planet to find someone like that.

Answer 8

I would define a good wife as a woman who respects their husband at all costs and stays in the kitchen or the bedroom at all times. This is never questioned and dinner is at 6. Sex is in the bum and when i want it.

Answer 9

A wife who is devoted to you, that loves you for who you are and what you do. A woman that satisfies your every need, want, and emotion. A woman with the same beliefs as you and the same goals in life. A woman you are compatible with in all ways including sex. If you have all of that, you are a lucky man!

Answer 10

A wife who stands by her husband, and prays daily with him. A wife who is willing to have devotional time with him sometimes. A wife who doesn't mind having sex with him. A wife who lets him be the head of the home and take care of the finances. If you are a Christian woman and please God, then you will be pleasing to your husband. God bless.
