Answer 1

Answer 2

My wife asked me when we got married that she could either be a great cook and housekeeper or a great lover. I hired a maid 2 months later.
My wife is my anchor, my mother (at times), my housekeeper my lover my everything. I make the money and she makes the house run. traditional, yes, and every situation calls for its own set of rules. A WIFE IS THE PERSON THE MAN CANT BREATHE WITHOUT>AND VICE VERSA. whatever it takes to accomplish that, then thats what the wife is.

Answer 3

all of the above. A housekeeper, a cook, a lover, a personal assistant. All these are easier to accomplish if that is her only job... it's hard work taking care of a family. Now... all of these things should be appreciated. Now - let me tell you what a husband is.... a mechanic, a maintenance supervisor, a provider, a lover, a trash man.... etc... my point... there is absolutely an element of gender difference... women are better at some things - men are better at others.

I was never asked to be a housekeeper - but I want to keep a clean/tidy house for my husband. I work all day - he works all day. I like to cook dinner for him - I like to serve him, make him feel special. The good part... we do the yardwork together... when the lawnmower broke.... he took it to the shop - when the brakes needed to be changed - he took care of it...

don't look at marriage like a list of chores - it's a relationship.

I read the above article a couple of days ago. It made me concentrate on my husband more.

Answer 4

i would say she is definitely a lover. there should be reciprocal love between husband and wife in order to have a harmonious family. there are a lot of wifes who don't do any housework so they need not be housekeeper. if she doesnt work then i think she can be a housekeeper (or else what does she do all day?). if she works then i think its ok for her not to do any housework because working itself is very tiring. it really depends on the will of the wife (whether she wants to be a housekeeper or not). she has her own rights, after all.

Answer 5

A wife to me is a person who wears so many hats that her closet is full. She is a friend to her husband, sometimes his mother, a cook, a housekeeper, a repair person, a pillow, a shoulder, a lover, a tramp, a lady, a veterinarian, a nurse, a rock in the midst of this crazy world. It is the strong woman who can wear these hats with grace that has the most successful and happy husband. Good luck!!!!

Answer 6

A wife is a partner equal in every way.
If you both work, then house keeping should be split. If one works and the other takes care of the kids (a full time job) then housework should still be divided. And yes a wife is a lover. Marriage does not work without love, desire, etc. I am as much if not more attracted to my wife every day, year, etc. This will sound really cheesey but a wife is someone who completes you.

Answer 7

A wife is a complimentary instrument of a husband. She has calm when the husband is nervous and vice versa. If the husband has strengths, she has weakness and vice versa. When a husband is sick, the wife is not sick. Obviously this is an ideal situation. But the couple works together for their survival and comfort.

No marriage is perfect, but with the give and take and complimentary skills and tendencies of each partner, marriage can survive. If both partners are up at the same time, that's easy to take, but when both are down at the same time, that is really tough! Given that we are human and make mistakes, would you want a partner that made mistakes the same time as you much of the time in your marriage?

If I am driving and I miss a hazard, my wife picks it up and vice versa. If we are both unaware of something, and sometimes that happens, we have a horror story. Maybe this is why opposites attract?

Answer 8

A wife is a partner for life! She is a best friend, a lover, a nurese when you are sick and support when your down, she can be a mother, a daughter and a sister. I truly believe the list could go on.

"Behind every succesfull man is a good woman"

I honestly do not believe there is any one particular role or set of rules that she or he is supossed to follow other than being faithfull. My wife and I share the responsibility of household chores, from cleaning to cooking.

The actual definition out of the Dictionary is: A woman joined to a man in marriage; a female spouse. A woman joined in marriage to a man; a woman considered in relation to her husband; spouse.

I hope this helps. Good Luck!

Answer 9

My wife is the woman to whom I am married.

Sometimes she does housekeeping. Sometimes she has sex with me. She is also the mother of our children, a wage earner, a friend to others, a sister, a daughter, an aunt, a cousin, a niece, and many more things besides.

However, the simplest answer to your question is that a wife is a woman who has a husband. Period.

Answer 10

Yes, but she is much more! A wife is the glue that holds a family together! A man can ask is he the muscle, the grunt, the remote control holder or ? We need not ask what we are but enjoy and proceed to do whatever is necessary to keep our family and spouse happy! Now that's BOTH wife and husband! We each have our own roles and sometimes we think they are more than the others and you might be right......BUT you can not keep score in life because when you do that's when you lose sight of what love really is.

Love is when you do whatever is needed to keep your family happy and going strong. Whatever happened to a wife or husband wanting to do what it takes to make their spouse feel like a king or queen????

Answer 11

A wife is not an object, nor is becoming a wife being hired. When you get married, the husband and wife become partners in life, any other role that is taken on is done so by choice, not because there is a ring
