contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (April Lorier, Author and Encourager) — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:01:14 EDT

I tell him he is being selfish, and he just stomps out of the room. I can't seem to get through to him. What can I do to make him see that he is making a huge mistake?

It is imperative you surrender yourself (in marriage) to him as often as he wants or he might be tempted to cheat. How do women become okay with this and call it love?

We really do teach people how they can treat us, Dad. And my perspective is that you have taught your wife she doesn't have to respect you. As long as she hangs around, that will do.
