Some people say that the way to a mans heart is through his stomach, is that true I wonder? What do you think? What does it take for us to be the ideal wife in our husbands eyes? What can we do to turn there flame into a forest fire? SilentRose

I don't believe it's through the stomach myself although I consider myself a great cook and my husband loves my cooking. We've actually talked about this subject before. Stevie wants to be loved and wants to love me in return. He wants us to have an open line of communication with honesty. He feels that the wife is the backbone of the family. She has to be strong and supportive. You sometimes have to work to turn that flame into a fire. It is something you will work on for the rest of your lives together.

That's partly true. I think that if a woman knows how to cook well, particularly what her man likes eating, then she makes him want to be home most of the time. But I believe there are still other things that make a man consider home "home". It is a peaceful place. A nice, clean comfortable place to be in. Comfortable, meaning, no stress, no tension. That's what i, myself would consider Home. There is love.. the most important ingredient in bringing him home all the time. If the man feels that no mattter how stressful work may be, coming home to his wife or partner would be the best place to be in.. and that makes the flame turn into a forest fire. I guess that's just my point of view..

I think I would rather have a slow burning, long lasting flame than a forest fire. Most men love to know that their wives believe in them; that they trust them to take care of things; and that they respect them. Wives who are constantly trying to change their husbands, even if it looks like it is for the better, are not going to be cherished for long by their husbands.
