Read More »5 Simple Ways to Show Your Man You Respect Him Your partner should’ve already earned your respect, so show it to him regularly. Photo by Tiago Felipe Ferreira on Unsplash Early on in our marriage, my husband said, “I don’t feel like you respect me.” I had no idea what he was talking about. He then tried explain, “It’s about making me a priority!” “You are a priority!” I retorted. But it didn’t matter what I felt because that’s not how he felt. He felt like I didn’t respect him, and he wanted to feel respected. I didn’t understand how I wasn’t giving it to him. I show him I loved him all the time. I stop what I’m doing to listen to him when he’s talking to me about his day. I go to him whenever I had trouble and listen to his advice. I thank him for all of the things he does for me and my children. But I’m pretty critical. I can also be independent, headstrong, self-centered. I hate letting people do things for me, and while I may listen to your advice, I’m going to do whatever I decide to do. I’ve always felt people need to earn my respect and keep earning it. You’re an asshole one day and you better be kind for weeks before you get that respect back from me again. But that’s not fair in a romantic relationship. No one should have to spend weeks earning love or respect back just because they had one bad day. That’s where it finally clicked for me: I needed to show my partner regular respect. Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, author of Love & Respect, suggests trying the following test to see if respect is what your partner wants: 1. Think of a list of things that your partner does that you greatly appreciate. Your partner likely does a lot of things that you are so grateful he does. He mows the lawn, gets down and plays with the kids, does the cooking, or loves folding laundry. Make sure to have a list in your mind of all of the things that your partner does. What really struck me is how wrongly I’d been thinking about some of the things my partner does that are really great. My partner routinely neglects himself for the sake of me and my children. He will skip going to the gym, eating, bathing, etc. if it means we are taken care of. I could be hard on him for this (and I have been), but at the end of the day, it comes from such a good place that I can’t ignore. 2. Wait until your guy isn’t busy and then casually say something along the lines of… “I was thinking about you today and several things I appreciate about you, and I just want you to know that I respect you.” Then walk away to do something else. 3. See what happens. Depending on his reaction, you can gauge just how much your partner longs to hear and feel that you respect him. When I did this with my own partner, he didn’t allow me to walk away. He followed me into the laundry room and said, “Really?!? Like what?” I then told him my list, and he was soft with me for days after. His reaction made it so easy to keep complimenting him, and I’ve since made it a regular practice.
