I find that being able to give myself totally to my husband is largely based on the fact that I know he respects me completely. We are equals. I respect his thoughts, opinions, his aspirations for his own life, besides ours together. He does the same for me. It makes him so happy when I surprise him with a cake made from scratch or a funny shirt I know he'll like. That is so satisfying to me that I keep trying to find ways to make him happy. He is a gracious person so I think he deserves to be shown my graciousness as well. We respect and love each other above all else. I am a strong woman but understand a man's need to feel like a man and I want him to know how much I need him though I am largely independent. Men need to be nurtured though they don't let on. They need to be guided and made to know that it's ok to not be strong all the time. Men need a woman's gentle touch and love to ease the pressure society places on men needing to be men. By being dedicated, understanding, respectful, and loving, I feel that I am being the best wife that I can be. I think these values are universal across all cultures.

This is a great answer... I kid you not. Please go to the bookstore and buy (also in paperback) the book:
'The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands' by Dr Laura Slesinger. This was on NewYorkTimes best seller list and is absolutely excellent for you to read. What a wise wife you are to aspire to be the best you can be for him.

There is no "perfect" wife,However, different cultures? Please find out all that you can about your husband's culture, and help him understand yours. If he is willing, try to blend the two cultures together. Respect for both sides. I wish you the best. Take care.

Patient is on the top list secondly is compromise. Age is not the reason not to have happily marriage but the close relationship togetherness is most important, that's what i believed.

You can't be the perfect wife and perfect mother it's too hard and you'll lose your mind after a while.
Just be yourself, he married you cuz he loved you...not the perfect person you want to be

There's no such thing as "perfect". The best thing to do to overrate perfect is just be yourself. You can't get anymore perfect other than being yourself.
