10 Signs Men Who Are Passionate About Their Marriage Will Always Show - Olubunmi Mabel

You’ve often heard that marriage is not a bed of roses and that there are usually ups and downs.

Therefore, it’s possible for women to doubt whether their husbands are as invested in their marriage as they are.

If you can relate, you have come to the right place because I will show you things men who are passionate about their marriage will always show.

This will give you a clearer perspective concerning your marriage even when things are not rosy externally.

Without further ado, let’s get to them.

1. Respect And Priority For Their Wife

A man who is passionate about his marriage will show it by respecting his wife and being committed to the marriage.

That means he will address and relate to her honorably in every way.

Even when angry with her, his words will be seasoned when talking to her, not profane.

He wouldn’t think cussing her out justifiable because he is angry with her.  

He would also avoid putting her in a situation where others would disrespect her, including not cheating.

A woman can know how her husband feels about her and their marriage based on how his friends and close associates relate to her.

It will be clear how he speaks about her even in her absence.

You might wonder why I didn’t include family; that’s because relationships with family are sometimes tricky, and it’s difficult to determine how a man feels about her based on his family.

But you can never go wrong with his friends.

2. Listens To Her

If a man is committed to his marriage, he knows he cannot do it alone; his partner is important in the equation, as it takes two to tango.

Therefore, he will listen to his wife.

He will value her opinion, seek it, and consider it even if he doesn’t use the idea.

He will never let her feel like she has nothing intelligent to say.

Also, when she confides in him or communicates her needs, he listens to her and applies what she says.

For instance, if she likes flowers, he would have heard about them in her conversations and occasionally surprise her with them.

3. He Is Affectionate And Caring

Being married to someone requires more than romantic feelings; a decision to commit to that relationship is more vital.

However, we cannot throw away the place of affection and care, or it will no longer be a marriage; it might as well be friendship.

A man passionate about his marriage will understand this and invest in showing his wife care and affection.

Besides that, he will naturally want to be affectionate; he will want to touch her, make her smile, make her happy, and fill her emotional tank.

If a man doesn’t care whether his wife is happy or not, he is likely not emotionally invested in the marriage.

Of course, this doesn’t mean he will always make her happy—he is as imperfect as every human, after all—but he will make an effort to ensure she smiles more.

4. He Learns Her Love Language

It is easier to love someone how we want to be loved because that is what we are familiar with.

However, it is better to love someone how they want to be loved, even though it requires more effort.

You must identify their love language and learn to implement it to do this.

So, some people might not bother going through that trouble.

However, it won’t be too much work for a man who is passionate about his marriage.

He recognizes that learning his wife’s love language is vital for the success of his marriage, so he is ready to put in the work to love her the way she wants to be loved.

5. He Seeks Intimacy

The passion of such a man will spill into his emotions so that he will seek intimacy with his wife, in the bed and out of it.

A man who only touches his wife in the bedroom might not be interested in her that much; he is just using her to fulfill a physical need.

But if he touches her out of it, it better indicates how he feels about being married to her.

Additionally, he will seek to connect to her emotionally and intellectually.

Basically, she will be his friend.

6. He Is Willing To Change

I already mentioned that a man who is committed to his marriage will listen to his wife and apply changes where required.

Now, let me put more perspective on it.

I am not saying the man will change everything his woman points out that she doesn’t like.

Characters and habits are not formed in a day; they result from years of doing something repeatedly, and some are even personality-based, so they can’t be changed in a day.

Also, if the wife loves him, she will be willing to accept and overlook some flaws.

However, for others that are easily changed or affect her well-being, when she communicates them, he will be willing to change them.

Even when he slips in the process, she will see his willingness to do better.

7. He Shows Her Off

If a man cares about his wife and is invested in the marriage, he will show her off to others.

He will take her to work functions and proudly introduce her to his associates.

Also, he will have something to symbolize her place in his life.

It could be a picture of her in his office or wallet, or he could use her as his screensaver.

A man who is passionate about his marriage will make it very obvious that he is married.

8. He Confides In Her

We already established that she will be his friend.

So, he will confide in her and ensure she knows details about his life that he might not tell others.

If a wife knows only superficial things about her man, he is likely not invested in the marriage.

9. She Doesn’t Feel Excluded From His Life

Similarly, she will know through his words and actions that she is his life partner.

She won’t doubt her place in her life because what she means to him will be clear.

He will not make decisions without considering or putting her in the know.

For instance, they won’t be in the same situation as a couple I read about on the internet the other day.

The husband was going on a boys’ trip with his friends when his wife just put to bed.

He said he had already planned the trip months before, so it wouldn’t make sense to put it off.

On her part, the wife felt he should be home with her to take care of the baby.

A man who is passionate about his marriage wouldn’t do that; he would have canceled the trip when his baby arrived.

10. He Dates Her

Let me start by saying that the absence of this doesn’t automatically mean a man doesn’t care about his wife.

Dating might be challenging if they are parents and have busy schedules.

However, when the wife communicates her needs for a date, or he hears teaching to remind him he has been neglecting it, he will quickly adjust.

A man who commits to dating his wife – as occasionally as time permits – is passionate about his marriage.
