A husband is a male adult who is married to a wife or wives as the case may be. Being a husband goes beyond having a family. It involves owning your manliness, understanding your role as the head of the home and rising to your responsibility. A good number of men are just husbands in name but are not functioning in their role. This said, I will be sharing with you in this article seven mistakes that some husbands make.1. Flirting with other womenIt is a common thing among some husbands to flirt with other women. Some of the excuses that some of these men give is that flirting with other women is just ‘wordplay’ and there is nothing to it. What they fail to realize is that they can resurrect unnecessary feelings in these women who may swim their way into their hearts. Thereby leading to sexual intimacy and unwanted pregnancies.2. Failure to provide for the homeMost husbands forfeit their future for the present by indulging in a life of ease and failing to provide for their homes. Such husbands unknowingly turn their own children against themselves. These children grow up with an unnatural instinct to hate their father which has been developed in them by the attitudes of the same irresponsible father. Hence, they take revenge on the man by denying him care and attention in his old age simply because he failed them as a father. 3. Failure to establish your wifeI have heard and seen countless tales of grace to grass of some husbands who fail to establish their wives in profitable or viable businesses, especially when the going is rosy for such men, until the tables turn. When this happens, the man is thrown off balance, his responsibilities multiply by thousands and there is no finance available to manage them. The man and his family suffer untold hardships because he has failed to prepare his roof against the raining days. Such husbands, if care is not taken, develop terminal illnesses that may likely end their lives.4. Beating your wifeRaising your hands against your wife will only make you a beast and not a husband. The end result of beating your wife is that you may likely chase her into the arms of another man who knows her worth. This is not to demonize husbands and to make angels out of wives. However, you are not supposed to beat your wife. It is against the rules of marriage.5. Pitching your children against your wifeThis is mostly the trademark of some women. However, some men have taken up this evil baton. Pitching your children against your wife will not only rub you of your wife’s affection, it will create deep tension in your family. This can lead to a divorce and lifetime enmity.6. Failure to say I love youSome husbands are in the habit of professing love to other women rather than to their own wives. A woman who is bereaved or starved of love will ultimately become a bitter woman and a cheating wife. It is important for husbands to know that women need to be reminded that they are loved with actionable words.7. Cheating on your wifeThere is no medal anywhere given to the most cheating husband in the world. Rather, what you get as a cheating husband are curses and blames. It is bad enough that you are not satisfied with your wife but evil when you cheat on your wife. It does not translate to any form of blessing.Conclusion A husband is like a gardener both to his wife and to his home. A true reflection of a husband is the image of his home. An irresponsible husband will ultimately have a negative impact on his home. Likewise, a responsible husband has a positive impact on his home. If you desire a peaceful home surrounded by love, then you should deliberately avoid the mistakes mentioned above.READ ALSO: 7 Necessities For Man’s Wardrobe
