Quick words of wisdom: Young women considering becoming traditional wives should be cautious and ensure that their husbands or soon-to-be husbands possess the good qualities of a husband. It is essential to ensure they are not exhibiting any signs of abusive or controlling behavior, as this can lead to a complex and complicated situation. It is easy for a man to misuse his power if you depend on him financially. As someone who has been in this position before, I can attest that it is not a good place to be in, and it can be challenging to get out of, especially if children are involved. So, take your dating life very seriously and be vigilant. Save your time if you are not dating to eventually marry that person or if they do not share your values.
I knew very early on that my husband was a genuinely good guy, and during a conversation very early on in our relationship, he expressed his desire to support me, saying, “I want to take care of you.” I could see the sincerity in his eyes and understood that he had no intention of exerting control over me or holding any power dynamic over our relationship. His love for me was genuine, and he truly wished to provide for me. Demonstrating that he, too, had an appreciation for traditional gender roles.
I adhere to traditional gender roles in my household. My husband is the breadwinner, and I take on responsibilities such as cooking, cleaning, nurturing, and facilitating my husband’s and children’s needs.
I take submitting to my husband as to the Lord very seriously. Unfortunately, this is often taken out of context and twisted. However, I want to make it clear that I do not believe in any way that women are of less value than men, nor does my husband.
Although my husband provides us with more than enough, and we live a life of abundance, I never recklessly squander his hard-earned income. I am grateful for what we have and do my best to use our resources wisely and with intention.
I will not speak negatively about my husband to anyone.
I prefer to prepare homemade meals from scratch rather than dining out, although we do go out often.
I refrain from establishing friendships or spending time with the opposite gender, including private messaging online. This aligns with my values and allows for a respectful demeanor in all interactions. Maintaining friendships with the opposite gender while in a relationship is a subject that has sparked much debate and discussion. Here’s my perspective: while it’s technically possible to steer a car using your feet, it’s not a wise decision if you genuinely care about your vehicle. For instance, if you own a luxurious car like a Rolls Royce, you wouldn’t want to risk damaging it by steering it with your feet. Even if you’re capable of avoiding an accident, it’s not worth taking unnecessary risks that could compromise the integrity of your car.In my opinion, If you’re married, your marriage has to be a Rolls Royce. You have to protect your marriage; you have to value it.
It’s crucial for wives to maintain their physical appearance. This is nothing to scoff at. Research suggests that men may be more visually stimulated than women, and as such, we should make an effort to remain attractive to our husbands. This seems like a no brainer, but we often get too comfortable and need the reminder to sometimes put a little extra effort in. Fostering a positive self-image is a valuable practice. While it is not necessary to dress in formal attire or apply makeup on a daily basis, it is important to prioritize one’s appearance and well-being. Maintaining a consistent routine and prioritizing self-care can contribute to a positive sense of self. I want my husband to know that his perception of me is a priority of mine.
