10 Ways to Being a Better Husband:
1. Only have sex with your wife.
2. Remember little things she says and prove to her by your actions that you remembered those little things she said.
3. Tell her you love her at least once everyday.
4. Kiss her when you leave home for work and when you come home from work.
5. Make a list to yourself of things she's asked you to do (like buy fruits at the market or to get the car tuned up) and periodically report to her on what you've done.
6. If she's been a good girl, take her on a vacation some place romantic like Paris or London or to the nearest shopping mall.
7. Compliment her everytime she looks good. She really needs to know what outfits you think she looks prettiest in.
8. When eating, always be a gentleman (no matter how hungry you are) and let her get the first bite.
9. Massage her shoulders at least every other night after dinner (especially if she cooked a roast for yah)
10. Really listen to what she says and never tune her out. What she says to you really matters. After all, she is the woman you decided to marry.

I think what would make you a good husband is honesty, don't lie to your wife, be a good listener actually be interested in what she has to say, so many times men just act like they are listening and they really aren't. I think it is important for a husband to really know his wife and how she feels about things her dreams her fears, there is nothing better then being with someone that just gets you. Also be helpful because so many of us women just feel overwhelmed with everything, many of us work and then we are expected to still take care of the kids and do all the house work and although you men usually work very hard you don't work 24/7 , if you have children then help her out with them and help with the house work as well. Sometimes men wonder why there wives stop having sex with them and it is many times just because we do not have the energy. Also be romantic, bring her flowers for no reason at all, make her feel special, take the kids to a sitter and take her out spend alone time with her, no matter how long you are married you both still need that time where it is just the two of you. Its hard to tell you what to do when I have no clue what you are doing now but I hope this helps.

1. do the dishes
2. mow the lawn
3. make the bed
4. cook a meal
5. take your wife out for a dinner date or a movie date or a dancing date
6a. listen to some of your wife's concerns
6b. Act on those concerns which can be acted on right away e.g. fix the things she wants fixed.....clean the things she wants cleaned.....
7. Listen to your wife again.....listen hard.....and repeat back what she is saying in your own words.....so she understands that you GET IT!
8. Surprise her with a nice gift - flowers or a day pass to a spa - once in awhile
9. Express interest in her life
10. Ask her how you could be a better husband
11. If you have kids - offer to take the kids out for a period of time....so she has free time on her own.
12. Take care of yourself.....eat well....avoid alcohol and drugs....get enough sleep...excercise....and do things you enjoy....because if you are not happy with yourself.....its hard to be a good husband.
13. See a marriage and family therapist if you think it can help
14. Tell her you love her.

I'm sure you are already a good husband if you want advice on how to be a better husband! But you could be a better husband by taking your wife out on dates keeping your love alive and exciting! It doesn't have to be any fancy expensive date you could take her on a picnic or take her to the beach. Just something where you can spend time and visit with one another! :)

Support and listen to your wife. Support is a big thing. My wife always has these ideas, I personally think they’re stupid or whatever, it doesn't really matter what I think. I listen to her and support whatever she wants to do. If you see inherent flaws in her ideas, don't point them out, she doesn't want to hear that from you. Let her figure things out on her own, she doesn't need a parent she needs a partner. Sometimes I think something will never work, and I support her nonetheless and then all of sudden she made it work. Help her as well, be attentive to her needs. She'll tell you what she wants, maybe not directly but she'll tell you in other ways. Be an attentive lover, be concerned about her prior to yourself...you're going to get yours regardless, make sure she's going to get hers. Help in the everyday things she does...for instance I personally cook every night, I love it when my wife comes over to help out. If there's chores or tasks that she does regularly, help her out, maybe even do it for her. Finally last but not least, pick your battles. I'm a cheap mofo, and I don't like to spend money, my wife wants to buy something for a co-worker that's going through a hard time right now, it's not expensive but I have no desire to spend my money on it. Grand total of the gift is going to be $5...I am dead set against this because my wife doesn't even like the lady, however why fight over $5? Just because I don't want to? It's not always that important to fight over what you want...you have to consider what she wants and if it's not too much to ask then rather than fight just do it. She asks you to take out the trash, you're tired you don't want to...is it worth arguing over? Probably not, just get up and say Yeah baby, because you asked and because I love you I will do it. Cheesy but an I love you goes a long way. Hope this helps.

By asking yourself how you can be a better husband, everyday. What are the things you think you aren't quite getting right now? Work on them, ask your wife. mostly just pay attention, be kind, listen and talk, do what you can to make each others lives easier and let her know you alway have her back no matter what life throws her way. Good luck!

You were not specific about what you feel you are lacking. Most women want a husband that is attentive (help with chores if both work, take out on a "date", bring home small gifts occasionally). Bring home dinner so she doesn't have to cook. Help with children if you have children. Communication is the key to any relationship, so ask wife what she would like.

What makes you think you aren't a good husband now? Being someone who is twice divorced, I can look back and see what failed so here's my two cents worth.
First, you are each individuals and need to each have friends other than each other to socialize with. Be considerate of her feelings, continue to "date" each other..., no matter what. Yes, have friends, but your wife and you come first. Be romantic and never take her for granted. Never be controlling. She has a brain. Don't be jeolous and act on it. If she wanted someone else she wouldn't be with you! Be flattered that others find her attractive. YOU do! Consult each other on financial matters or a big purchase. But you are adults so make adult decisions.
Good luck!

have a more open communication with your wife, and be a good listener, most times she might just be venting off. And every once in while show some appreciation, you don't have to buy her roses, just tell you you love her any anytime, when she is cooking or doing laundry (even if you don't want to help) tell her thank you and hug her and kiss the back of her neck. Show her you still desire her by just brushing you hands against her butt as you walk by her. Every small thing you do matters to her. Be a good provider.

You don't say much about what you do now. But it is always a blessing to have a husband that helps around the house . Running a vacuum, dishes, sometimes laundry, being a good listener, buying her things when there is no reason to except you love her. ak Ah and may I add, be faithful to her.
