Table of Contents
A man’s greatest need is to feel respected, and a woman’s greatest need is to be loved. But how can a woman show her respect for a man so that he feels that he is really respected? Consider 100 ways how a woman can do it in practice.
Some may argue that a man must earn respect for himself, but not love. But how a woman wants to be loved, no matter if she’s moody or having a bad day. Likewise, men want to be respected when they do not live up to women’s expectations in some way.
So showing respect is not a matter of choice. This is the main tool with which a woman or girl can influence male self-esteem. And then the man is ready to do a lot to win women’s admiration and self-respect.
What does it mean to respect a husband, a man
Respect means to reckon with a man and his opinion, to recognize his authority. A woman who respects her man will never allow herself to gossip with others about his mistakes.
Love and respect for men, women show that they treat them with kindness. They take into account their self-esteem not only in public, but also at home, alone. They also try to fulfill all reasonable requests of their husbands.
Respect means learning to accept a man as he is. Do not squeeze it into the framework of an ideal invented by a woman.
Now let’s look at what it is. (By the way, read about how a man can actually show respect and love for a woman ).

Conclusion
Love or respect, which is more important for a man, what do you think? After being married for over 25 years, I asked my husband a simple question: “Which does he want more – love or respect?”
Although both of these qualities are important, his answer surprised me: “Respect.”
I couldn’t believe that anyone would prefer respect over love. But then I realized that respect for a man is the basis of a successful relationship. It is more important for men to be respected, but not loved, than loved, but not respected. And just like women expect strong love, men expect unconditional respect.
This is how we women can positively influence our men. A man deserves respect, it is a powerful motivator for him. And this is what family values are built on.
