Women want a husband that they can count on, and this hasn't changed in recent years. Yes, women look to their spouse to be a lover and friend, but they also want him to be supportive and trustworthy. They want to know that he will be there and will be loyal.
A woman must feel her man loves her, deeply, intimately, wholly, and fully. She must feel your love wrap around her heart the same way your arms enwrap her body. She needs to feel adored, wanted, and cherished. She wants to know your admiration is always reserved for her, and only her (if you're monogamous).
Kindness, compassion, companionship, intimacy, affection, sex (lovemaking) are also important factors here.
Women need men to show kindness, patience, understanding, empathy, and compassion. Regardless of the type of relationship, men and women should be considerate of each other's feelings.
Women desire a man who is honorable, fair, and ethical. In terms of relationships, having integrity can help strengthen the bond a man has with a woman, as his moral principles will guide his behavior and help him to be the best partner that he can be.
“You look beautiful.” This is what women like to hear from their husbands because it shows you still value her attractiveness and the effort she makes to look good. “You're an amazing mom.” Moms need to hear this because they tend to compare and then beat themselves up for their shortcomings.
Marriages take work, commitment, and love, but they also need respect to be truly happy and successful. A marriage based on love and respect doesn't just happen.
A woman's four basic needs are security, affection, open communication, and leadership.
Protecting your wife from all sorts of dangers in life is a husband's prime responsibility. Be it physical, mental, emotional, or psychological – a husband must protect his wife from anything that can harm her. Your wife must feel safe and secure in your presence.
Words of Affirmation.
She thrives upon being affirmed by you. This could be by way of daily compliments, praise in front of the kids, or handwritten notes of love and affirmation. Your wife needs to be told that she is loved, that she is beautiful to you, and that she is valued.
Communication is key to a happy marriage. Happy wives tell their husbands everything — worries, fears, accomplishments and joys. She's not afraid to say what she's feeling and she loves having those daily conversations. If she's happy, she'll try as hard as she can to have the best relationship with your family.
For example, take her on dates or buy her something nice on her birthday or your anniversary. Help her cook dinner for the family. Give her time to go out while you take care of the kids for her. It's these simple acts that reaffirm you respect and love her and give her a higher sense of security in your marriage.
As a wife, she is expected to serve her husband, preparing food, clothing and other personal needs. As a mother, she has to take care of the children and their needs, including education. As a worker, she has to be professional, disciplined and a good employee.
Like women, men want a life partner who will be trustworthy, faithful and reliable. They want a wife who will stand by their side and, considering divorce rates, it's no surprise that dependability would continue to be attractive.
And almost all those I interviewed described one or more of only ten emotional needs as being most important to them (admiration, affection, intimate conversation, domestic support, family commitment, financial support, honesty and openness, physical attractiveness, recreational companionship and sexual fulfillment).
According to a research published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour, a married couple should get intimate around 51 times a year, which turns out to be once a week, to lead a satisfying and happy life.

Thoughtful gestures, healing touch, passionate kiss, care for children, or thoughtfulness toward family are just some of the many things a man can appreciate about the woman in his life.
