I love my husband with every bit of my body but some days I feel like I am just not good enough for him. It feels like he is wanting something better. I know he is under s great deal of stress. He works all day, on his days off he has to drive me to classes, on the weekends it is like everyone in the world wants him to do something. I try my best to keep him happy. I keep his clothes done, some days, maybe 1 or 2 in a month something isn't washed but I do my best. I try to spoil him just a little. I like to wash his hair when he is in the bath tub, I like to trim his nails and I like to give him back massages, but it doesn't seem to be enough. What do you do to show your hubby how much you love him?

You are doing many wonderful things for your husband. Keep up the support that you give him and continue showing him how much you love him. Keep yourself positive as well because you are being a good wife.

I felt that before. Typically, Men don't say anything or give you a clue on what's on their mind. If you and your husband were too honest, you might ask him if he is happy being with you.
For my own peace of mind I always ask my husband if he's happy on what's going on with our relationship, and I thank God for giving him a straight answer. When you felt that something is not OK, you should have talk to your partner.
My hubby spoils me more and I super like it.

you are good enough for him. it's him that's not good enough for you! you're doing everything for him, plus extra. once you get your bachelor's degree, some of this stress will leave. keep your head up!

don't worry about not being enough for your husband because i am sure he is appreciating everything you are doing for him. sometimes, the smallest is the most important. those small gestures really make them happy like what you are being happy for.
my husband is a simple and humble man. i show my love for him my being on his side no matter what hardship he is facing. i stand by him and support all the way, i give him my opinion and advice on what he is doing and i know he appreciates them all. he is my bestfriend so i think things are easier but not all the time though. always have a good conversation, respect, trust and love. i'm pretty sure you can make your relationship stronger by working together. goodluck and happy mylotting.

I think you do more than enough and take care of him so well, so I don't see any reason for being so worry about yourself. Please be positive, when you think positive then positive thing will come along, don't let the negative energy poison your mind because you are definitely not a bad wife. Good luck!!

Hi Keasling... I think you are doing just fine... for us men and as a husband we really appreciate those little things that our wife is doing for us specially when we are really tired from working all day... Maybe sometimes we tend to have some mood swings and tend not to show much feelings in what our wife is doing for us but honestly when we are alone and as for me when I talk to my office mates I brag about my wife is doing for me... I am sure your husband is really appreciating what you are doing for him that is the reason why he keeps on going to work everyday... Cheer up girl... Take care and God Bless... :D

It sounds like you have a very nurturing and caregiving personality. Your husband is fortunate to have you.
If you don't feel that you're good enough for him it sounds like the issue is within your own mind. Give yourself credit for being a very attentive and loving wife.
You deserve to feel good about yourself and what your offering him.
