Body Image

Remember ladies, your husband may be insecure about his body too. He might be self-conscious about that pudge that he is developing around his middle, his height or lack there of, bald spots, the size of his member, hair in unwanted locations, etc.

Try giving him a random compliment today and see how he reacts. Just the other day my husband swept me off of my feet...literally. He picked me up, tossed me over his shoulder, and headed for the bedroom. Surprised, I blurted out, "Honey you're so strong." Well that certainly gave him a boost. He seemed to be quite pleased by the compliment and started to preen and flex his muscles.

You may not be a fan of certain aspects of your spouse's body. However what good will it do to tear your partner's confidence to shreds? Build each other up. Appreciate the good, the things that you love. Finally, if there is a health issue that needs to be addressed, do so with all kindness. Don't criticise.
