How To Win The Attention Of Your Busy Husband

Posted on September 16, 2008 in Tips for A Wife

Your husband who is a very busy man running around to get projects, assignments and meetings done will always give you the excuse of being busy for the family’s sake. If you constantly keep complaining about him being busy he may get irritated with you. Also, completely ignoring him and being busy in your world will cut him away from the family. It is important that you keep him close to you and the family in spite of his busy schedule.

Here are some tips on how you could do that.

1) Get To Know About His Job: First and foremost get to know about his job, the kind of work that he is so involved in. You could search the Internet, talk to friends about it, best of all ask your husband about it. Though things may not get into your head keep trying.

2) Be An Effective Listener: Be an effective listener, listen to him even if nothing seems to enter your head. When he sees you being eager about his work, he would want to spend more time with you and tell you things and enjoy your presence. Eventually you will understand his nature of work and your discussions would be two sided instead of one. You could slowly then divert the topic to personal elements and then tell your spouse about what’s happening on the family side and the children’s lives.

3) Be There: When your husband returns from office, be there present waiting for him. Dress yourself pleasantly and let him know that you dressed up especially for HIM. Give him water when he comes from office; keep his clothes ready, and his bath ready. He will notice you paying attention to him and would want to spend time with you. 

4) Cook His Favorite Food: Make his stay, which is very rare, worthwhile at home. Don’t keep nagging him, cook his favorite food, talk to him, spend intimate moments with each other and enjoy each other’s company.

5) Get Intimate With Each Other: His busy schedule may reduce chances of intimate moments; also he may be very tired and would not be interested in getting close to you. It is up to you then to identify when he is most relaxed and try to initiate and make love. Your husband would then realize that it’s better to stay with you rather than spending time at the office.

Anger and bitterness at him being busy will not help. Even if things are at its worse the wife should make an effort to get close to the husband. It is easy to end a relationship but living it up is very difficult but worth all the effort.

It shows how keen you are to live up the relationship. Communication and perseverance will definitely save your marriage.
