21 consejos para respetar a tu marido en la vida real
Aprender a respetar a su marido y demostrarle su amor a través del respeto y el aprecio son habilidades importantes que sin duda fortalecerán su conexión y mejorarán su matrimonio.
Utilizar algunas palabras sencillas para exprese su amor por su marido isn’t and should never be enough. You must show it through your actions.
Debes demostrárselo respetándole y apreciando todo lo que es y todo lo que hace por ti y por vuestro matrimonio cada día.
La confianza y el respeto son dos pilares en los que debe basarse toda relación sana. They’re equal, and they are as important as love is.
If you’re a religious person, then you know that God has also instructed us to respect our husbands. In Ephesians 5:33b, Paul wrote, “However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.”
In these words of God, we can also see that love and respect go hand in hand. You can’t have one without the other.
We can also see that respect must be earned. You can’t have respect for a disrespectful or marido controlador no importa lo fuerte que sea el amor que sientes por él.
It’s just as Dr. Emerson Eggerichs has explained in his book, Amor y respeto… “When a husband feels disrespected, it is especially hard to love his wife. When a wife feels unloved, it is especially hard to respect her husband.”
Marriage and family life is a very challenging journey. You’ll meet many obstacles on your journey, but the most important thing is to travel carefully and slowly, together, holding each other’s hand.
¿Cómo muestras respeto a tu marido?
Su marido quiere sentirse querido, como todos nosotros. Sin embargo, por encima de todo, tu marido necesita sentirse respetado y apreciado.
Let’s do some homeschooling, shall we? I’m going to teach you how to respect your husband more and demuéstrale que te importa por él honestamente.
Así que siéntate y presta atención a estos sencillos consejos que seguro que te ayudarán a estrechar los lazos afectivos entre tu marido y tú.
Deja las palabras a un lado; muestra respeto con hechos
Your husband doesn’t need you to tell him that you love, trust, or respect him… he needs to feel those things through your actions.
La primera vez que le faltes al respeto a él o a algo que es importante para él, sus sentimientos hacia ti empezarán a cambiar. The more you treat him badly, the less he’ll love you.
You can swear that you love him as much as you want, but it won’t be enough to make him believe it. Tus actos siempre serán más elocuentes que tus palabras.. Efectivamente, las palabras no significan nada if you can’t back them up with your actions.
There are so many little things that you can do every day to show your husband respect. Those things won’t take a minute of your time each day, but they will mean the world to your hubby for sure.
Remember, ‘in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health’…
Always keep in mind your wedding vows. You took an oath before God and in front of all of your family and friends that you’ll cherish and love your husband until death do you part. Now, you have to stick to your oath.
Your marriage will be wonderful, but at the same time, a very challenging and sometimes incredibly difficult journey. You’ll come across many peaks and valleys on your journey just like all marriages do.
Trust me, there is no happy marriage or happy couple who didn’t have to go through some rough patches. Those are some kinds of challenges that God sends our way just to see if our love is truly strong enough to endure it all.
The most important thing is to always remember that you’re in this together and to keep showing love and respect to your husband even if, sometimes, you start questioning whether he deserves it or not.
Those negative things and thoughts are temporary and transient, while on the other hand, you two are forever. And, in the end, that is the only thing that’s important.
Dedícale toda tu atención
Don’t think that we’re the only ones who can’t take it when we see that our husbands don’t listen to us. They hate it, also.
So, how do you respect your husband? Don’t look at your phone while he’s trying to talk with you, and don’t refuse him when he asks you to talk because you’re busy. Nothing should ever be more important than your man.
It’s time to have a weekend getaway for just the two of you. Leave your phones and everything else that might interrupt your quiet time behind.
Organize a small romantic trip for your hubby where you’ll be able to give him your undivided attention.
Comunicarse de forma saludable
Tienes que aprender a comunicarte con tu marido de un modo más eficaz y sano. Eso significa que no habrá peleas, porque todo desacuerdo y todo conflicto puede resolverse siempre mediante la comunicación.
Of course, there will be some situations when he’ll really make you angry, but you need to learn how to respond in those moments. If something bothers you, you can and you should discuss it with your partner.
However, don’t allow those disagreements to grow into a fight. Calm down first, be mindful of the tone of your voice, and try to work things out through healthy communication.
El autocontrol es una virtud que lo es todo para un matrimonio sano y feliz.
Lack of healthy communication can really damage your marriage relationship to the point that it’ll be very difficult to save it. You need to prove to him that you’re trustworthy, and hacer que se abra a ti.
I’m not talking about verbal communication only. You also need to have open body language towards your man that will show him that you aren’t afraid to let him in.
Elige tus batallas
You don’t have to fight over every little thing that bothers you. Sometimes, you need to keep some things to yourself because there is no point in making too much drama about things that aren’t important at all.
Never react in anger because that will make you say and do some things that you’ll regret later for sure. Calm down, wait until it’s the right time, and talk about it with your partner. TALK, I must really emphasize this; Talk, don’t yell!
Respetar a su familia y amigos, también
You really have to be considerate to your husband’s needs, his professional life, and his loved ones. Maybe you won’t get along with all of them too well, but you need to respect them no matter what.
His friends and family members are people he loves and trusts the most, and if you don’t respect them, that would mean that you don’t respect your husband either.
Maybe, sometimes, the actions of your in-laws won’t be worthy of respect, but still, you must think about your husband first and how he would feel if he finds out that you’re being disrespectful to his loved ones.
This is also a two-way street. If you treat his family with respect, he’ll definitely show the same amount of respect to your loved ones.
Don’t ever be too proud to apologize nor to forgive
Is it really that hard to stand behind your actions, accept that you’ve made a mistake, and offer a genuine apology to your partner? Is it really too hard to say those three simple words “Lo siento.“?
Si su orgullo es realmente mucho mayor que el amor que siente por su pareja, entonces algo va mal en su relación matrimonial.
This can only lead to the conclusion that you don’t care nor love your partner at all.
We are humans and we all make mistakes sometimes. It’s just a part of our nature. I always say if God can forgive us all for so many mistakes we make on a daily basis, who are we then not to forgive that one person we love when they do us wrong?
Valorar su opinión
Your husband should be included in your decision-making process. Most of your decisions should be brought together because marriage is a partnership and it’s just how things work in a healthy and happy marriage.
If you don’t allow him to help you with your decisions, or if you don’t ask him for his opinion about things that are important to you, he’ll think that you don’t value him or his opinion.
Hacer del tiempo de calidad una prioridad
I’m not saying that you should spend 24/7 together, but you should definitely find a way to spend some quality time alone every day.
Find a hobby that you’ll both like and do it together just because you’re married. This doesn’t mean that you should stop going on dates.
Haz del miércoles tu noche de cine. Rezad juntos al Espíritu Santo.
Find something you’ll both like and do it together. Spending quality time together is crucial if you want to strengthen your emotional connection and deepen the bond between you.
El contacto físico también importa
La falta de intimidad física es uno de los primeros signos de una matrimonio infeliz. Touching can also say ‘I love you and I’m always here for you’.
Just because you’re married now doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t coquetea con tu marido anymore. Unfortunately, that’s a mistake that many women make today. Flirting will help you to keep the spark in your relationship alive.
También le demostrarás que sigues considerándole atractivo, lo que puede suponer un gran estímulo para el ego de un hombre. Esta parte es especialmente importante si ya sabes que su principal lenguaje amoroso es el contacto físico.
Colóquese SIEMPRE hombro con hombro
Tu hombre necesita saber que puede contar contigo pase lo que pase. Necesita saber que siempre estarás ahí para cubrirle las espaldas, igual que él lo estará para ti.
Recuerda que el matrimonio es una asociación. Esto significa que apoyarse mutuamente y permanecer juntos a pesar de todo lo que se interponga en vuestro camino.
You need to be his friend, not just his wife… a friend he can always count on and a friend who’ll be and stay at his side through all the highs and lows.
Sé su fan número uno
Support your man in everything he does, even if you don’t always agree with his choices. This will show him that you truly believe in him and that you respect all of his choices.
Maybe his choice isn’t good, but trust me, his intentions always are. Whatever he does, he does it for you, for the sake of your marriage, and for your family.
Don’t nag and criticize him all day long. Your husband doesn’t need a mother, he needs a partner.
If you two are constantly criticizing each other, it’s a true red flag that you’re in a matrimonio sin amor.
Tu apoyo siempre será su mayor motivación. Nunca serás consciente de lo mucho que significa para él tu palabra de apoyo, sobre todo en los momentos difíciles de su vida.
Sé también su mayor admirador
Te enamoraste de él porque viste todas las increíbles y cualidades adorables lo ha hecho.
Por supuesto, también tiene algunas imperfecciones y defectos, como todos, pero tienes que aceptarlos y abrazarlos todos.
Actually, you need to show him that his flaws don’t make him weak or bad or less manly. You fell in love with him for who he really is, and that means you’ll stay in love with him no matter what.
Encourage him to be a better man…
Uno de los más importantes objetivos matrimoniales es animaros mutuamente a convertiros en mejores versiones de vosotros mismos.
Sé su animadora y apóyale en todas sus aventuras. A los chicos les gusta oír compliments as much as we do, so why don’t you praise him more often?
Be fully present in his life even if sometimes, it seems like he’s trying to push you away. That’s when he actually needs you the most, trust me.
Pursue his dreams tirelessly…
Support and encourage him to follow his dreams and goals. Tell him that no matter what direction those dreams take him in, you’ll always travel together to the final destination.
Show him that you believe in him and in his success. Show him that he always can count on you and that you’ll always help him as much as you can to follow his dreams. After all, his dreams are your dreams, too.
Levántate rápido después de caer
There will be many ups and downs in your marriage and in your lives in general. Your husband just needs to know that you’ll be there for him every time life knocks him on the floor.
He needs to know that he can count on you in those moments to give him your hand and help him stand up again. Again and again, no matter how many times he falls down, he should know that you’ll always be there to help him rise and heal.
Agradece todo lo que hace por ti
You, as a wife and as a mother, have so many responsibilities every day, and I’m sure your man knows how to appreciate them.
Pero él también tiene tantas tareas y responsabilidades serias como tú, y lo justo sería mostrar también respeto por todo lo que hace por ti.
First of all, show him that you’re very thankful to God for sending him into your life.
Then, tell him that even though, sometimes, it seems like you don’t see all of his sacrifices, you do and you appreciate every single one of them.
I always say that if someone doesn’t appreciate and respect you, he doesn’t deserve you tampoco.
Cumpla sus promesas y compromisos
¿Cómo se respeta a un marido? Sencillamente, respaldando siempre tus palabras y cumpliendo tus promesas. Así te asegurarás de que tu relación matrimonial se mantenga sana.
Las promesas rotas tendrán un impacto negativo en la confianza entre usted y su pareja, lo que dañará definitivamente su matrimonio.
Don’t ever let your husband down by breaking your promises because that would mean you’re letting your marriage down, too.
Tus palabras y tus promesas son realmente mucho más poderosas e importantes de lo que crees.
Dale espacio personal
Lo cierto es que, a veces, todos necesitamos espacio personal en una relación. Tenemos intereses diferentes a los de nuestra pareja y simplemente necesitamos tiempo para dedicarnos a ellos.
You must understand that men are very protective of their personal space when they’re in a committed relationship. They have some interests that we don’t understand and we shouldn’t really interfere there.
That’s why the next time your partner says that he needs quiet time, don’t immediately react as if it’s a bad thing. They probably just need time and space to dedicate to their career or hobbies.
Mímale con amor y respeto
Random acts of kindnesses will cost you nothing, but will surely lure a smile on your husband’s face every time.
Dale un masaje si sabes que ese día lo ha pasado mal en el trabajo. Prepárale su cena favorita cuando vuelva de un viaje de negocios.
Prepárale café antes de ir a trabajar. Llévale el desayuno a la cama los domingos por la mañana. Sorpréndele con un carta romántica de aniversario que dejas en su fiambrera.
Those are all some little things that will make your husband feel extremely loved and respected. You don’t have to buy him some expensive gifts to show him that you love him.
Spoil your man with love and respect, and always remember, you’re his queen and you need to trátalo como a un rey.

Palabras finales
Para que un matrimonio tenga éxito y goce de buena salud, debe haber respeto mutuo y confianza entre los cónyuges. Esos dos son los ladrillos de toda relación próspera.
Espero que esta pequeña escuela casera y mis consejos sobre cómo respetar a tu marido te ayuden a mejorar tu matrimonio y a crear una conexión muy fuerte con tu marido de tal manera que nada ni nadie sea capaz de romperla.
You can’t say that you honestly love someone if you don’t respect them. Love and respect always go hand in hand. You just can’t have one without the other.
La falta de respeto es sin duda una de las razones más comunes por las que tantas parejas acuden hoy en día a terapia matrimonial o, en el peor de los casos, se divorcian.
You can’t have a deep emotional connection nor a healthy relationship with someone if you don’t respect them. In order to maintain a relationship, there has to be a lot of understanding and mutual respect.
You’ll never be able to cultivate respect for a hombre ensimismado o un marido irrespetuoso.
I never liked the phrase ‘to express love’ because expressing love means nothing to me. Words mean nothing because we all can say something we don’t really mean or feel.
On the other hand, we can’t behave in a way in which our heart doesn’t want us to. That’s why I have always believed in the power of actions above words and everything else.
