How A Man Is Supposed To Treat A Woman

Never knowing until several years ago how a man is supposed to treat a woman, I look at my now husband in amazement. Until I met a good man, I thought my previous relationship was healthy. It’s with my new perspective on love, that I share today’s article. How a man is supposed to treat a woman is my observations or little signs that tell you a relationship is healthy.

— Knowing Your Worth My Story - Knowing How to Spot a Good Man:

My story today is about the traits my husband exhibits for no other reason than his love for me. These are the traits of a GOOD-MAN who will treat a woman like a queen. Adjust your crowns, ladies; it’s time we expect no less.

A Good Man Shows RESPECT

Without RESPECT, everything else will crumble in your relationship. Does your spouse treat you as an equal? A good man will ask for your advice. He will include you in important decisions. Listen to your concerns and value your opinion. Real men will thank you for the things you do and acknowledge your contributions to the household

HONESTY Is Never In Question:

Honesty is the foundation of a loving relationship. A good man does NOT keep secrets from you. You will have an open dialog about feelings and never keep even the smallest of secrets. Life with a man of value means you never question his loyalty.  You establish ways of communicating with honesty and respect.

ACCEPTS YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE:

He will accept all aspects of you, including your flaws. Your life partner should never want to change your core traits. In your marriage you are unique, and the person his heart fell in love with. Therefore he should love the person you are. A real man doesn’t keep you jumping through hoops to get his attention. You are enough, just the way you are.

How to Treat a Woman - WALKS NEXT TO YOU:

This one may not make sense at first, but if you are walking down the street, is your spouse next to you? He should NOT be ten feet ahead of you like you don’t even exist. Red Flag! When thinking about the little things and how a man treats a woman, look for small traits. Big and flashy displays of affection do not always add up to what is most important. Women in relationships should look for small clues to a true man’s intention.

LITTLE THINGS TO MAKE YOU HAPPY

Women should ask themselves, does he make daily small gestures to make you happy? Nothing flashy, just acts that show he values and protects you.  My husband, to this day, will randomly reach for me in the middle of the night. It’s like he’s checking to make sure I’m still there next to him. Most days he will bring me my coffee in the morning if he gets up first.  A man in love may send cute text messages throughout the day, just to let his woman know he is thinking of her.

Should Not Delight In Your Tears

A good man understands that tears should not bring delight or a sense of superiority. Instead, he seeks to witness tears of joy rather than sorrow or betrayal. When you find yourself shedding tears, he will offer comforting support, recognizing that he is not the cause of your distress, and will be the first to gently wipe them away.

 

Social Media Respect

Ladies it is never a good sign if you or your man are talking negatively about each other on Social Media.  Whether it is Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok, you should have a privacy right in your relationship.  Relationship rights reserved to be kind to one another.  A good man will not embarrass you, belittle you, or talk badly of you in the presence of others.  A good man in a relationship will come to you with concerns and questions, not social media.  Facebook Twitter is no place to air your dirty laundry.

What are other common universal traits of a good man?

Respect: A good man treats a woman with respect and recognizes her as an equal partner in the relationship.

Communication:  Men of value communicate openly and honestly with their partners, Men in love listen to their girlfriend’s thoughts and concerns.

Support: When a good man loves a woman he supports his partner and encourages her goals and dreams. A guy in a relationship should be her biggest cheerleader.

Trust: A good man trusts his partner and does not try to control her or her actions. A woman should be treated with respect and when a man is good he will trust her intentions until shown otherwise.

Kindness: A good man is kind and compassionate towards his partner. He makes an effort to show her that he cares about her well-being.

Loyalty: A good man is loyal to his partner and does not betray her trust or cheat on her.

Understanding: Men with pure intentions will try to understand their partner’s point of view, even if they disagree with her.  It’s okay to disagree in a relationship, but it’s not okay to always need to be right all the time.

Responsibility: A good man takes responsibility for his actions and is accountable for his behavior towards his partner.

Equality: It’s 2024 and he should believe in gender equality and treat his partner as an equal in all aspects of the relationship.

Patience: A good man is patient with his partner, and he understands that relationships take time and effort to build and maintain.

A lot can be said that this post does not only provide information about how a man treats his partner, but can also be flipped for how a woman treats her man.  Though this post is written from a woman’s point of view, all can relate to the value of these core traits.

Regardless of gender, all should strive to have positive, open, and fulfilling relationships.  These traits are some of the keys.
