Do you believe in Happy wife means a Happy life too for our husbands?

[kikaygirl5810]

I was reading this article on a blog talking about a wife should be the priority to be happy because the wife makes her family happy.

If she is a happy wife...she could
 *take care of her husband happily
 *take care of the children happily
 etc...etc...etc..

Is this true mga sis?
For me kasi parang true sha...
how about you mga sis!


"A study of the everyday lives of thousands of retired couples has concluded that the secret of contentment for men is to ensure that their wife is happy with their marriage.

Even men who actively view their own marriage as miserable are still able to enjoy a higher level of general happiness if their wife is content on the domestic front, the study by leading US sociologists concludes.

But, strikingly, the researchers found that there was no clear link in the opposite direction. Women who feel trapped in an unhappy marriage are not more likely to be content in other areas of life if their husband is happy at home.

The reason, they concluded, could be that women who consider their marriage happy are more likely to care for their husband, including feeding him and doing the housework, enhancing his general quality of life.

Happily married women are also more likely to boost their husband’s ego by praising him and less likely to give him the kind of tongue-lashing the broom-wielding Nora Batty specialised in doling out, they noted. "

i remember my hubby was asked for "advice" nung ikakasal cousin nya. Sabi nya, "happy wife, happy life!" Lol!
I believe there is some truth into it.
What makes the husband happy is different from what makes a wife happy.
Tayong mga babae kasi we are more emotional than men. Attention, appreciation, feeling loved, etc if those are not met, ano ba nangyayari? Nagiging nagger, hindi napagbibigyan sexy time, iritable, etc...on the other hand, if the wife is getting all those edi happy at laging nasa mood... edi masaya din si lalaki! hehe

[tjmax]

Agree!

[three8one]

for me yes, sobrang saya ng pakiramdam ko pag alam ko at nakikita ko na masaya ang wife ko... pero pag masama naman ang loob nya sakin like may pinag awayan kayong something na hindi kayo halos nagkikibuan, ang bigat bigat sa dibdib at sobrang affected ako.

Yes and No.

I would classify happy committed/married men into 3 types:

Type A - having a happy partner is part of his definition of success and happiness. Mas mataas EQ, understanding, considerate at open minded. Normally every woman would want to have this type of husband.

Type B - his definition of happiness is shallow. Basta objective nya is to keep the partner/wife happy and mum for the meantime, so he will have more time for himself because he is happier that way - he will have more time to play video games/ golf, go to girlie bars, drinking sessions with bakada, the things that he has been craving and urging for since he got married/committed.
So long as the partner thinks she is happy and satisfied kahit may hanky panky si guy, ok lang. What she doesn't know won't hurt her.


Type C - these men are the type who has no consideration to their partners but are still happy and proud to be themselves. Oblivious to their family's emotional happiness, they would just do whatever makes them happy and contented, kasehodang mag sacrifice ang asawa nya, basta masaya sya.
So a guy/ husband can be happy but his wife may not necessarily be happy.

^trulaloo... I like your categorization sis...

So speaking of type A. Yeah, I agree.
Kasabihan nga ng mga pinoy, "Ang ina ang ilaw ng tahanan." Kaya kung pupundi-pundi ito, walang kasiyahan.

side comment OT:

^^Kaloka ang anay ng haligi ng tahanan 

What I love about my husband the most is how he prioritizes my happiness above everything. Minsan hinde ko napapansin or sometimes i don't get to appreciate it mostly because my husband isn't the outspoken type but I love how he goes out of his way to make things extra convenient or comfortable for me. Sa tinagal-tagal, dun ko lang nalaman na ang love language nya pala is service

[super bratinella]

My husband asks me every time we have to make decisions, he said my side is important because he believes that a happy wife is a happy life, so when it comes to decision making important na marinig niya ang side to at if hindi siya agree but if he ask me if it will make me happy then we'll go  to what will make me happy more.

[Dacian]

yes.

[j.adore]

Naisip ko lang dito if the wife is happy, she wouldn't have to nag the husband haha!

But I think both are important. It's a relationship after all.

[snowflakes]

Yes! Agree! Happy wife = happy life... How can you have a happy life if your husband is cheating on you? Natural walang lama utak mo kundi yung asawa mong sira ulo! Panu ka rin magiging happy if hinde ka naman pinapasaya ng husband mo. I know happiness begin inside us pero i also believe that malaking impact ang asawang pasaway!
