Take a moment to write down all the things about your husband that made you fall in love with him. Remember back when you first met. What qualities did he have that made you swoon? Which of these qualities does he still have? Circle those. Consider how you feel about those qualities. Do you still respect him for those qualities? What are some areas that he has grown in since you got married? Find several areas that you can say you honestly respect him for. Then simply tell him.
Tell your husband you respect him. Think about the areas you wrote about and use the words “I respect you.” Remember how you cheered for him as “your man” when you first started dating? He is still that young man that desires his girl to be excited to be by his side. Honor him today by telling him that you respect him and make sure you use those three words when you do, “I respect you.”
