There are times when we are to give advices. But there are also times when we just have to listen. And in your case I think it is the latter one. Stress is usually felt after office hours. And that time is spent when in the house already. I suggest you lend him an ear. I would think of giving him an advice if I were in your case but I think it won't possibly work. Having someone listen to you relieves stress. It is the time when you pour out the burden in your heart. You can really help if you facilitate a conversation with him and let him tell about the happenings during the day.

Advice in what category? This question is pretty vague, but as a live-in boyfriend, maybe I can offer a useful perspective. Men, in general, don't like to be told what to do. Men are panicky animals, and they don't want to feel like they are inferior to their girlfriend (even if they respect her dearly). When advising your husband, offer him kind advice but don't be too pushy, or make him feel like he's wrong. Good luck!
