Your Wife, Your Choice: Criticizing Her Demeans You

  Written by Fred Farai Nyakudanga As men, we’re given the privilege of choosing our partners. This freedom of choice means that our decisions reflect our personal preferences and values. When we criticize our wives, we’re not only hurting them but also revealing more about ourselves than we might intend. In essence, castigating your wife describes your preference more than her wrongdoing. It’s essential to recognize that our choices have consequences, and it’s up to us to take responsibility for those choices. To build a strong and healthy marriage, consider these key factors: 1.
