How to be a good husband - Marriage Video Transcripts
Video 1 Transcript
I think some key points of being a good husband are to be there for your wife. They go through a lot emotionally and lots of ups and downs and it's important to be there for every single one. Know that you can't take every challenge, like you can't just make everything better by cracking a joke or smiling or something. Sometimes they just need to be held, your wife just needs you. Also just realize that there's more to marriage than sex and knowing their feelings and their insecurities really makes you seem more valuable as a husband and more of a trust, a trusting resource than just a companion or a roommate. You're their eternal person, so stick with that.

Be honorable and be proactive. Don't be lazy, don't be a slob, don't be slothful. Be proactive, be sharp, be mature and be proactively seeking how you can bless your wife's life, how you can make her life better and make your kids better. If your wife sees that your priorities are her and your kids more than whatever your hobby is and that you're willing to sacrifice your personal desires to make other people's lives better, that will really go a long way.

In a typical society, again it varies by culture, but the husband is typically responsible for guiding the home and for bringing money in. That's the typical responsibility. And if that's the case in your situation, understand that yes, you have the responsibility as the lead of the home, but that does not mean that you're the boss. You and your wife are equal. So, equal might mean you have different responsibilities, but you share equally. You both have equal authority, and you treat each other like you're equal. And you don't have your, oh, I'm in charge, so I get to look at the numbers thing. I run the finances because she doesn't. No, you're equal, and you share with each other and everything. Thank you.

I think it's important to be a good husband. It's important to work together with your partner. Growing up in Tonga, it's traditionally, there's certain things that are traditionally for husbands to do and wives to do in the marriage, but I believe that it's important to come together as a team and work together. We have a one-year-old daughter and both of myself and my wife works, so we do a lot of things together and we take turns, you know, like changing the baby and cooking. Both of us do all those things. There's no such thing as like this is what the wife do and or this is what the husband do, you know. We always have to work together as a team so that we can be successful and we find it very successful.

I think putting your wife's needs before your own, striving to be selfless, helping around the house with cleaning dishes, taking out trash, vacuuming the floor, doing laundry, I think those are all ways to be a good husband. I think also being patient and never shouting or hitting is another good way to be a good husband. As a husband you should try to be the best example you can be for your wife and if you have any children as well. I think also you should try to be happy and optimistic. That lightens the burden on your spouse quite a bit.
