HAVE DINNER READY: Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal – on time. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him, and are concerned about his needs.Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospects of a good meal are part of the warm welcome needed.
PREPARE YOURSELF: Take 15 minutes to rest so you will be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting. His boring day may need a lift.
CLEAR AWAY CLUTTER: Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives, gathering up school books, toys, paper, etc. Then run a dust cloth over the tables. Your husband
will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too.
PREPARE THE CHILDREN. Take a few minutes to wash the children’s hands and faces if they are small, comb their hair, and if necessary, change their clothes. They are little treasures and he would like to
see them playing the part.
MINIMIZE THE NOISE: At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of washer, dryer, or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be quiet. Greet him with a warm smile and kiss, letting him know you’re glad to see him.
Some Don’ts: Don’t greet him with problems or complaints. Don’t complain if he’s late for dinner. Count this as minor compared
with what he might have gone through that day.
MAKE HIM COMFORTABLE. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or suggest he lay down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink
ready for him. Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes.Speak in a low, soft, soothing and pleasant voice. Allow him to relax and unwind.
LISTEN TO HIM: You may have a dozen things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first.
MAKE THE EVENING HIS: Never complain if he does not take you out to dinner or to other places of entertainment; instead try to
understand his world of strain and pressure and his need to be home and relax.
THE GOAL: try to make your home a place of peace and order where your husband can relax.

This is very strange You sound just like my
grand mother.
Thanks for reminding me of her.
Some men may treasure a women who would do what you have said above.
But some J---A--- men who would really get lucky to find some1 like that they think they are the real Jack On The Bean Stalk.
Be carefull all women as it's true that its easy to find a women but its very hard to find a WIFE and WW its easy to find a man but next to imposible to find a HUSBAND.
If you know the diffrence in Women And Wife
and Men and Husband.
PS; This is a very serious statement I have
posted there I will appriciate if some
Always trying to be funny guppies don't come up with some Chichooray remarks. Thanks.
what if you do all this and still get **** from your husband. Most of the women in pakistan does that all and still living a hell life.
Does not matter what you do for men its never enough.

which planet u from?????? :D
i'd want my husband to help out in the house.. sometimes cook me dinner etc.. to offer to do the washing up.. to do the hoovering.. to put the kids to bed :p
no seriously if and when i get married... its gonna be an equal home we live in... if i work and he does too then its more important we share... and anyway sharing things brings u together.. i think :)
as for that comment about kids lookin nice and tidy and being quiet.... u'll suffocate ur kids like that.. they have the world in front of them.. they should be comfortable with their father... and shouldnt have to behave as tho hes some fragile thing that needs it peace and quiet...
kids are meant to be noisy and crazy and wild... o.k not all the time but kids dont learn if u put them in a straightjacket!
sorry i work with kids and it drives me crazy when parents dont let kids be kids...
i need a house husband i think :D Cooldude lovie.. u interested??? ;)

This is very funny to me I was thiking about
the same Question yesterday.
Isn't it odd that all the teaching and advises are made for women What to do
how to do, how to please your husband,
how to make your home a haven on earth
for your husband,how to be a good mother
how to treat your in-laws, how to perform
your duties, obay to your husband no mater
how big of a jurk he is, Blah blah blah
and the list goes on and on.
Never once in my life i came across with
any ........ grandfather to teach or advise
his grand son how to be a good husband, not even from their own experiance they would
tell them how to maintain a good relationship with your wife, how to keep
her happy, All they teach their son is how to control your wife, how to get things
done your way, how to insult her and put her down so she will deppend on you, how to
manipulate and make her your slave.
How to be a Changaiz khan in the day time
and a spoiled lil baby crying for a toy in
the night time.
Why don't you admit it that its true.
why can't dumm men realize the fact
that a women when she gets married to
that jack ..... is not their for s.....
she is their to fill in the empty part
of your life and make you a complete insaan.
When a woman loves a man she can make him
feel good.
But when a woman loves her husband she
make him feel like he is standing on top
of the world, but ofcource if he is a jerk
you can't tell if he feels like standing on
top of the world or your head.
this is rather funny - I came across this from an old book dated to the 70’s ages and ages ago…
