B/c of the way we females are wired, we must respect a man before we can love him. We are not sexually attracted to our H's if we do not respect him. We will test him (even when we don't realize that's what we are doing....and other times we do know that's what we are doing)....but if he lets us get by with some disrespectful word or deed, then it gets worse the next time, and the next....until all the respect is gone. Then we tear him up with our disgust. We may not tell him that, but you can rest assured that is the case.


This should be in the wedding ceremony. After "dearly beloved" and and before "do you"? This advice would have saved me years of misery.
