#40: Here to Serve
It seems bizarre, but studies show that approximately 20% of couples feel like a servant in their marriage. It’s a never-ending cycle of cooking, cleaning, and caring for everyone else’s needs. Of course, no one wants to feel like a servant. Marriage should be a partnership built on love and respect, not one person serving another.
It’s so important to communicate your needs and set boundaries. It’s okay to ask for help or delegate tasks, and it’s equally important to offer help and support to your partner. Remember, you’re in this together. This mom should remind her man that she’s a valued partner and contributor to the relationship.
