I know that nobody can make you not cheat or make you want to stay married, but what things can your wife do to keep the relationship going positively and make you enjoy being married to her?

Be as positive and supportive as you can. Try to understand your husbands short comings and be patient with them. Be mindful is his strength and show your appreciation for them as well.
Don't complain about something unless you want your husband to do something about it. Husbands don't really understand the concept of complaining just to let steam off.
Say what you mean and mean what you say. Husbands are not mind readers.
Do what ever you can to keep the marriage at a low stress level. Give your husband your trust and respect.
Tell him you love him often.
If you do these things for him and he is a decent person he will reward you 10 times over.

My wife and I let each other know every day that we love each other and are willing to make the marriage work. We share the good times and the bad with each other. She gives me hugs and calls me if she's working late. She never takes her eye off what is really important. I want to be with her because of the wonderful person she is to me. A good sex life also helps keep the fire burning. We've been married 20 years.

Stay in shape is a big one I see guys wander when the wife just lets herself go and next is probably have some time for your man, some ladies get so busy with the details that the man is last because you think ooo he will be there when I get home and then your too tired for play time, Review, keep it lookin nice and put your man first.

Oral sex will keep most wondering guys home.
Good cook will get to the heart through the stomach
Dress nice(slutty) we are visually aroused.
Snuggle, we like to feel like we protect you
Don't nag just ask if we could get project x done before your mother comes to visit.
Don't complain about money- unless it is really reckless and inexcusable.
Take showers together, not everyday but just let him eah you now and then.
Get a night out together at least once a month. Doesn't have to be expensive just alone together.

All I really need to be happy is to feel comfortable in her pressence. There are so many factors that lead up to this comfort. There are things/differences that we all have with eachotehr. but if these differences are so small and they don't disrupt this comfort feeling, everything is fine.
The second something crosses that line where you no longer feel comfortable being around her or comfortable having her as your wife, There is a problem.
It's comfort. There are no set characteristics for this. All people marriages are different. But it all boils down to the comfort level between the two people.

For 20 + yrs I had a great marriage, we shared everything from the cleaning of the house to the homework with our child. The secret I found for me was to be a giver and she in turn gave what she felt was comfortable and we accepted each others faults and looked at the overall picture and lived happily. It is different for everyone though so you can only do what you feel is right and hope they are as generous in their feelings for you.
Good luck.

I know that you said men only but I know that this works. Go get and read Dr. Laura's two books The Proper Care & Feeding of Husbands and The Proper Care & Feeding of Marriage". This will give you good insite into men and marriage.

I think if you have a healthy sex life and show affection to one another, your husband wouldnt have a reason to go cheating. Regardless, when you say "I Do" that means you will not cheat so for you to be asking this you must think that your husband might cheat. You may want to openly discuss your love life and get feedback from him.

before i start my lecture i must say, speak to him, talk just talk and find out what he truley wants. and just remember if he is REALLY WORTH IT.
if he wants you to dress up in sex and give him oral, or if he wants you to make his favourite food then do it. in fact do it without asking him, its better, then he understands my wife cares about me and know what i want. ill just tell you what a typical guy wants from his wife.
1) oral, anal and just plain sex, do it good, and i mean good. like you enjoy it. also get in a routine of giving him more. you are probably not doing it enough, if you think you are, then do it more and more until he cant take it. plus you never know, he might return the favour. so therefore sex is a major important player, dress up, bondage, just have fun and get kinky.
2) the apperence, groom yourself, have the perfect body image. find out his perfect female celebrity and be like her ( i know its not good trying to be something your not, but its worth it, if you really want to pleaseyour man). bascilly looooook gorgeous.
3) personality. be out going, kind caring, funny, dirty, smart, able to hold a great conversation. and dont put to much pressure on him. have similar intrest in him. share it.
just be his perfect wife. do anything he wishs (as long as he is worth it) those are the only tips i can give you now email me if you want more info, hoped i helped, good luck!

Be pleasant, be positive, have interests outside of your mate, and don't gripe and complain about his crazy family/exgirlfriend/best friend. Make home his safe haven, where he can say and be whatever he likes. Let him know you accept him and respect him, no matter what.
