What is Wifey Material?
Wifey Material is a phrase used to describe the qualities
of a woman that would be an absolutely great wife. The specific traits vary
among men, but there are a few universals that all men seem to agree
upon.
Trust, honesty, love, smoking body, great with kids and my
friends, likes to travel, and more like this are on my list with qualities that
make her wifey material. What’s on yours?
There comes a time when most men want to settle down and
build a home with a good woman. But it seems more and more difficult to find a
woman that hits all the points on our lists. The truth is we’re not looking
hard enough. After all, most good women don’t usually hang out at the bar every
night, and they don’t get noticed easily.
It also matters the level of your expectations. If on your
list of qualities that make her wifey material you have “looking like a
goddess”, “cooks like my mother”, and “reads extensively to
expand her mind” you may never find such a woman. And if do you find her,
she may not find you interesting enough.
However, there are some important qualities that make her
wifey material. Below I listed the most common ones and I leave it to you, to
look for the ones that make her unique to you.
Here is a list of qualities of a wife material
1. She is physically attracted to you.
First things first, guys are moved by what they see, and so
it is not surprising to know that physical beauty is the main element of
attraction.
It is normal to be loved by a guy based on your physical
beauty. There is nothing wrong about that. Even though most of the qualities we
are going to be discussing will out way this, physical beauty is the first
thing that will give the guy the bragging right among his friends.
If your would-be wife is naturally beautiful and possesses
the qualities we are going to talk about, it is just a plus for you. Most
friends are only interested to see the ‘beauty from the outside’.
If your wife is physically attracted to you, it naturally ignites
a lot of things to work smoothly as well. Less argument, when you truly love
your wife. Consider the physical beauty.
2. Inner Beauty (Personality)
Every human being has two types of beauty, that of the body
and that of the soul (what’s normally known as inner beauty)
Look for a woman is respectful and listens to you
attentively when you are speaking to her not the one who will be nodding along
while thinking about the latest dress.
The girl should be kind, decent, and generally have a good
personality. Even if you do not know her for that long, if you pay attention to
the way she treats other people, you will know. For instance, was she nice to
your friends? Does she uses “please” and “thank you” when speaking to regular
people? These are a few things to also look out for.
3. She makes you a better man.
One of the qualities of a good wife is her ability to
provide you with the room to grow and develop your dreams.
It is not about her trying to change you but she should be
able to change with you. People always grow, but it’s a matter of growing
together or growing apart.
Marriage or relationship shouldn’t end your social and
professional lives. A good woman should be able to help you grow and achieve
your dreams.
4. Common Values
One thing that also makes a relationship thrive is a shared
common value.
Your likes may never be the same but as time goes on try and
develop some interest in what your partner likes.
This is not to say you need the same hobbies or dreams, just
the same values that are crucial to both of you. We encourage conversations
that cover these important areas early.
5. She can call out your mistakes.
You must recognise that, you may not always get everything
right. You need someone who will care to put you back on the right track when you
are making a lot of life-altering mistakes.
Your wife should have the ability to call out the flaws in
your decisions. Your finances, for example, you decide to sell your property
and invest in something else. Your wife should be able to tell you the mistakes
you are not seeing.
6. She should be fun to be with.
Life is not always about the seriousness and so sometimes
you need someone who is fun to be with.
You may not make your day always but when you have someone
who is fun to be with and can put smiles back to your face, why will you be
looking for more!
It is not only about when you are going out; you should feel
great in each other’s company and she should inspire good feelings in you with
a nice, warm smile.
7. An excellent cook.
She needs to cook like the chefs at five-star hotels. Your
would-be wife needs to know the right ingredients for each meal.
Apart from being able to prepare traditional meals, she
should master how to prepare a complicated meal.
You would want to invite your friends over to the house for
lunch and cannot simply contain the embarrassment if your wife is not a good
cook. This very important because it has destroyed many homes.
8. God-fearing.
She should not only be a churchgoer but also someone who
avails herself for roles in the church. Like a choir leader or youth leader.
The pastor and elders should know her. She should always take the front seat in
church, that is just on a lighter note.
She should be noted to go to church in a dress below her
knees. She ought to give offering and tithe. Anything less than isn’t worth the
trouble. She won’t raise children in a Godly way.
9. A good homemaker.
She needs to be someone who can depict her homemaking
skills. Once in a while or always; she will wash her husband’s clothes. She
will scrub the veranda, change the curtains and do all the essential works in
the man’s house.
10. She needs to be submissive
You need not be hitting on the same thing for long. She
should be submissive and give heed to your council.
You wouldn’t want to be with someone who will easily talk
back even when you are correcting her.
11. Should be in good terms with in-laws.
A good wife respects and shows unconditional love to her
in-laws. She loves her mother in law and sister in law as her family. She never
argues or carries grudges no matter what happens. All in-laws love her in turn.
12. Uses Money Wisely.
She needs to use every penny carefully. She shouldn’t buy
very expensive make-up and Brazilian weaves boasting that “my man has money”.
She ought to live contrary to the slogan; a man should not have a wife who
spends more money than he can make. A good wife should have a money-making
venture and good investment should be at her fingertips.
13. Faithful.
She needs to be faithful. Even if her boyfriend is in the
United States or another town and it takes forever for them to be together, she
needs to be chaste.
She should not have a thing going with his friend, a man in the
office or that strange man she met. This will make the marriage strong.
14. Loyalty
She is completely loyal and gives her all but I know that
she will leave if the trust and loyalty are not reciprocated. That’s the
difference between wife material and doormat/booty call material.
15. She has realistic expectations
Women are often cultured into thinking they will always get
a prince charming and often that is not true. An ideal woman? Someone who
understands your body isn’t Channing Tatum’s, someone who understands you have
flaws.
That you are not a perfect man it is okay if you’re not. You are not eye candy or plaything and your woman should understand that. Your flaws and imperfections are something she should help you embrace rather than something she should point out just to embarrass you.
