In today's world, with a gloomy economy, and with half of all Americans throwing the towel in and becoming divorced, when you come down to it you can create a great marriage by being a better wife. With the sour economy, it is a lot cheaper to try to keep your marriage together rather than getting a divorce. Divorce costs are astronomical. To be a better wife you need to try your very best at being a great wife. It just takes some effort.

SUPPORT YOUR MAN

With the lousy economy and companies laying off people in the effort of trying to make a profit, a wife needs to be her husband's major emotional support system. To be a better wife and make a marriage work, a husband and wife need to work as a team. Men need major reassurance. Because your are striving to be a great wife you will give you husband a lot of emotional love and tenderness.

Tell him everything will be alright and that things will get better. Talk to him, and draw him out so that he does talk. Many men hold everything inside. Men are the ones that don't talk, they take action. Women are the ones that talk face to face with their friends and relatives. While a man will bang around in the garage fixing stuff that doesn't need to be fixed. It's the way a guy works out his problems. Draw your husband out, by asking him questions, such as, "Is everythingokay?" Ask him how he feels about the situation. Men don't want to talk about their feelings. But by drawing him out, that might just make him feel better and lift a little weight off of his shoulders.

MAKE HIM FEEL GOOD

Men are very much about the visual. To make your guy feel great and create a strong bond between the two of you, engage in the oldest tactic in the world, have great sex. Take his hand. lead him to the bedroom and have an aggressive sex romp! Sex relieves tension, is great exercise, and is a terrific way to feel good. Having sex releases positive hormones throughoutyour body as well as his. Here's a secret also, studies have been done on a guy's sperm and the results show that sperm makes a woman happy. While you are making him feel great and building a bond with each other, you will become super happy!

Even when you are really tired, and you get that I just want to be left alone thing happening, have sex anyways. The sex will lift your spirits and your husband's and you can have some necessary fun in these bad economic times.
