6. 9 Things Your Husband Doesn’t Want to See You Doing

I’ve been with my husband a long time, and I’ve almost always worn something on my head at night. All this time, I just knew my husband thought my bonnets made me look sexy. I even took initiative to change it up a bit (either by color or by cocking it to one side like a kangol hat). But I was recently hit with the hard truth that he (*gasps*) hates it. So due to his lack of appreciation of me wanting to keep my ‘do intact, it got me wondering what else were some things that I or some of his friends’ wives did that they really didn’t care for? Well…I asked, he asked, and below is what they had to say.  None of these will probably lead to divorce or anything…but they may cause a need for a temporary space barrier to be put in place.

Just as in my other post, these are a compilation of things that other wives have shared with me. This is not meant to cause any arguments or to say that anyone is “walking on eggshells” in their marriage just because they don’t really care to witness these habits they see in their husbands.

It is a stance that says I refuse to let the darkness of evil conquer the light of Christ in my heart”. It’s about taking a stance and choosing to be unapologetic about distancing yourself from the evil and negativity that surrounds us day in and day out. But doesn’t the same hold true for marriage? Don’t we have to make a decision to take a stance that says we refuse to let the darkness of evil conquer the light of joy we have in our marriage?

9. The 6 Essential Things That Have Gotten My Parents to 47 yrs of Marriage

I used to think there’s no way they could still be in love after all this time (LOL), but I have to say they are more in love now than ever before. After seven kids, twelve grandkids and one great-grandchild, they still understand the meaning of true love. They’ve had their share of ups and downs. They’ve withstood the test of time, change, and probably most challenges that a lot of couples face in marriage (and then some). No matter what challenges they face, they demonstrate on a daily basis what it really means to “love, honor and cherish”.

So I asked them what were the top things that have gotten them to this point in their marriage that they are able to celebrate year number 47. And here is what they had to say:
