INSIGHTS
ON
MARRIAGE

  

 

Dr. Gary Chapman

The Fact is, We All Have Needs

It has been my observation through the years that many husbands simply do not understand the needs of their wives. Conversely, many wives do not understand the needs of their husbands. In their ignorance, they make little effort to meet each others needs.

Some husbands believe that if they work at a steady job and bring home a decent salary, they have completed their role as a husband. Some wives believe that if they cook a meal now and then, do the laundry, and wash the baby's face - that's it. He should be happy. What's wrong with the man.

The fact is, we all have needs. This is part of what motivates us to get married. When these needs are not met over a period of time, we tend to get irritable. Irritation brings criticism and criticism brings counter-attack. So, we find ourselves fighting rather than seeking to meet needs.  This week we are going to look at marriage as a "mutual aid society".
