How to Make Your Man Love You for a Lifetime - Seven Practical Guidelines

For centuries women have mastered the art of captivating men's hearts. History is replete with such stories of which Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and Julius Caesar may be the most famous. Having won the love of a man, the greatest challenge for most women is how to make him love you for a lifetime. How can this be accomplished?

1. Support him

Support and encourage him to improve his education. Give him that moral support as he seeks to improve the lot of himself and his family in pursuing a higher position at work. If he is one of the thousands of persons who have lost their job during this time of recession, try to be patient with him when he whines about not having a job. Suggest different ideas he may try in the hope of getting a new source of income. He needs to know that you are on his side especially when life gets tough.

2. Give him your unconditional love

Flirt with your man. Regularly prepare candle lit dinners for two. Kiss and hug him even when he is asleep. Let him know that you love him and him alone. Always accept his overtures for love-making. Thank him for loving you and tell him that you will always love him. Stay clear of affairs as they are destructive to your relationship.

3. Let your man be who he is

If your husband tells you that he does not like cleaning the yard, do not nag him about doing it. Sure, both of you can discuss and agree on the household chores that each of you will do. If he wants to cook and iron, let him do that. You may like yard work and agree to do it or you both may agree to pay to have it done. In that way, he will be comfortable and happy doing his part at home. Give him enough room to have time for his friends and family. Do not make the mistake of trying to control him. The more he is free to be himself, the more he will love you.

4. Take care of Him

Make sure that when your man leaves the house he is well groomed. Take notice of what he is wearing. Help him to get his colors coordinated properly. If you have to leave home before him, let him show you what he is wearing for that day. Then you can suggest any changes that may be necessary.

Your man's health should be important to you; therefore, you should urge him to keep his doctors' appointments. Encourage him to exercise and eat healthy foods. If your man has a medical condition, you should learn as much as you can about the condition, know the medications his is taking and know what to do if he has an emergency.

5. Spend quality time with your man

If you want your man to love you for a lifetime you must set aside time to be together alone with him. It may be an expensive date, an exotic dinner, or a vacation on a Caribbean island. Regardless of what you do, just take time to relax together away from the stress of work, children and chores. It can be as simple as a leisurely walk around the neighborhood after dinner, a picnic at a scenic location or involvement in a mutual hobby.

6. Respect and trust him

He needs to be respected by you and your family. Respect his ideas; treat him like an intelligent, resourceful, caring, loving and valuable member of your family. Praise his good qualities in front of your friends and family. Trust his ability to take a leading role in family matters. Trust his judgment especially when a consensus cannot be reached on a matter. Trust him to respect you and his marriage vows when he is in the company of other women.

7. Listen to your man

Listen and give him the chance to express himself concerning his likes, dislikes, things that excite him, things he wish you would change, his goals, his dreams and his aspirations. Women who listen to their men have a better understanding of who their men are and where they are going. Listening opens the door to better communication and it fosters a bond that makes him love you for a lifetime.

Making your man love you for a lifetime is not an ethereal goal. Many women have succeeded in reaching it and many more from all echelons of life are on their way to achieving it. It is a goal worth striving for, but it calls for constant care, vigilance and labor. The resultant fruits are happiness, joy, peace of mind and a warm feeling of security.
