Women: Don't expect your hubby to support the family 100% financially unless you carry out your duties. Preparing his food, keeping a clean and calm environment for him and the kids, taking care of and educating the kids, smiling for him no matter how bad your day was, grooming and beautifying yourself for him and keeping his clothes neat.
Men: Don't expect your wife to do all of the above, if she too goes to work, comes home tired and provides for the family financially. You can expect her to do all of the above if she does not contribute financially (read: work hard to earn for the family). If she does some or all of the above AND contribute financially, then you are a lucky man. In return, you should do your share of the household chores and help her out with the kids, and around the house, without her asking you to do so.
Women: Even if you are the sole breadwinner, or you make more money than your husband does, he still deserves to be respected. Ask him what his definition of respect is. Respect for him might mean preparing his food. It might mean taking care of his clothes. It might mean greeting him with the sweetest smile.
Men: Even if you work like a horse and provide for your family 100% financially, your wife still deserves to be loved. Ask her about her definition of love. The meaning of love for her might mean giving her small gifts. Or cooking special meals for her occasionally. Or taking her out on a date. Or taking her on a short vacation. Or simply spending quality time with her.
I've seen so many young couples on the brink of divorce. Tolerance is the key!
