What Makes Him A Good Husband Material

Reading Time: 7 minutes

Ever think about what makes him a good husband material? Or have you been thinking about the perfect guy that you want in your life? If this question ever crossed your mind, then you’re in the right place.

A relationship before marriage does not require greater commitment, duties, and responsibilities. But marriage is a completely different kind of relationship. It’s a huge decision to decide who you want to share the rest of your life with.

What Are The Signs That You Need To Know

You can figure out if he’s a husband’s material or not by looking at his level of respect, communication, integrity, belief, trust, and love. Because when you getting married to him, all these common beliefs and understanding will decide whether you will be happy or not.

One survey has been conducted by YourTango said, the surveyed agree that the first quality which makes men a material husband is their ability to communicate, followed by integrity and reliability.

And when it comes to finding a good husband, experts say that the three following attributes matter least, a man’s height, followed by his religion/ethnicity, and then his career. That said, when you look for good husband material, do not focus on the outside, instead pay attention to the quality that we state below.

1# He accepts your flaw

You don’t have to hide your true self, pretending to be someone else will just make relationships worst. Instead, just be your true self, be honest and feel safe to do so.

But it doesn’t mean that you need to stop being a better version of yourself. Changes for better outcomes are always recommended.

When someone really loves you, they will learn to accept your flaws. But be careful, do not use this to make an excuse for your flaws. If you love him, and you think that your flaw is hurting him from the inside, you also need to learn how to repair it.

When you are married, you always need to give and take. Fail to find the balance will break your relationship. Because we are all human, sometimes we can stand it, sometimes we don’t.

So even though he may accept your flaw, always be considerate about his feeling also.

2# He’s willing to put efforts into the relationship

One thing that you need to keep in mind is, every people have different ideas of what type of effort they should put into their relationship.

Some may believe that they need to work hard and being good at their job because they want to provide you with nice things and a comfortable lifestyle.

Whereas some may believe that expensive gifts or fancy dinners are not important, as long as you know when to put down your phone and give them attention, it should be fine already.

This is very subjective, I think there’s no right or wrong answer. It totally depends on what you want. Try to look at him on a different side and ask yourself, did he put enough effort into the relationship? I strongly believe that your heart knows the answer.

3# He is trustworthy

You feel safe when you’re with him. You have no doubt that he will betray that trust or use anything against you. You believe he will not abandon you, he is an honest person, and he means what he is saying.

Did you feel that way to your partner? If yes, then he is a good partner. Honesty and loyalty are all part of a relationship. Once you have trusted one another, the rest of the relationship will come naturally.

4# He knows how to make you laugh

Even though he cracks at terrible jokes, being able to laugh and let loose at anything is a truly important quality your man should have.

The best man avoids childish pranks, and in everyday situations, he can see the irony.

If he can lighten the mood during stressful moments, he is incredibly good. Good men know how to make their girl laugh even when you are having a bad day.

5# He inspires you to be a better person

This one is extremely important. You want to be with someone who helps you aspire to be the best possible version of yourself. He’ll never say outwardly that you should change but naturally, you’ll grow because he trusts in you.

The best relationships help us to grow into happy and well-rounded individuals.

You know a guy like him deserves the same caliber as a girl. Not that he thinks there is any way you need to be. You only want to represent your best self internally, and he encourages you to be just that.

6# He always remembers a little thing about you

Obviously, men are hard to remember a little thing when he doesn’t have any interest in a woman. But when he does, that means he really cares for you.

For example, the fact about he remembers your favorite beer or wine or when you pronounce certain words or your silly little phrases.

A real man will remember all this thing because they really love you.

They want to live with you and he’s making an effort to show you that you’re meant a world to them.

7# He knows how to manage his finances

Money can be a source of nasty arguments among married couples. So it’s important for both of you to know how to manage your finances. Proper money management can actually be a rewarding way to bond love with your partner.

If your partner is open with you about finances and works together in managing money as a couple, then he is absolutely husband material.

But if he’s not, you can always start talking about finances. And this is best to do before you get married. Keep an honest communication going, this is to ensure that there is no unwanted surprise in the future.

8# He stays patient with you

If you make mistakes or annoy him, he doesn’t get angry easily. He shows calmness and takes maturity in any issue of relationship or problem.

He also can wait patiently when you need space and time for yourself.

9# He is there for you when you need him

Sometimes a relationship requires sacrifice and compromise. Life is unpredictable and shocking.

You can’t predict what’s going to happen and nothing can possibly go 100% as expected.

A husband material will be there for you when you need him. He’ll be your partner when whatever happens and ride out the storm with you, even though he might prefer to stay in the sun.

He’s the one who runs to your side wherever the “hypothetical” position is, to make sure you’re safe.

He will do anything that will help you get on your feet again.

10# He wants to marry you

This is the most obvious, he wants to marry you. If your partner has all the qualities on the list, but he doesn’t want to marry you, or he doesn’t want to get married in general, then he is not good husband material. He is just a good gentleman.

If your partner is still not ready to get married, you better give him some time. Maybe he won’t get married because he wants to wait until he’s more financially stable, or he still pursues his career and his dream.

But if he’s still attracted to the lifestyle of the single bachelor party boy, and not marriage-minded, you’re just setting yourself up for fraud.

11# He has a big life plan

Making something planned by the year isn’t too safe, but a man who has a general rough draft of where he sees himself in a few years is a guy who isn’t just coasting through life.

He’s thinking ahead and has visions of where he’d be happiest, and guidance on how to get there.

With this sign, you will know that a good material husband is already in him. He already thinks forward about the future and he will try hard to give his best for his partner.

12# He is growth-oriented

We all have weaknesses. No one is perfect and those weaknesses aren’t black and white. Typically the greatest strength of an individual is a reflection of their greatest weakness.

The behavior affects you in a relationship, and vice versa. His less defined features will sometimes have a negative impact on you.

A growth-oriented man wants to strengthen his character and work on it. You want a man who will admit his tone. He probably won’t get it right every time, but he will at least try if he’s growth-oriented.

13# He forgives easily and moves forward

A good man will not get angry easily even he was pissed off with your attitude.

He’ll try to calm down, and talk to you slowly. He’s also not going to bring up your past mistakes, and use them against you.

He forgives you and thinks that both of you should live in the present moment and work for your future.

15# He views you as his partner

A good relationship is not about you and him, but how well you could work together as a team. If he treats you as one of his important teammates, then he is absolutely a husband material.

He sees you as his equal, as someone of great value with whom he can flourish. Most important is, as someone who’s gonna support him, be his emotional crutch, be there to meet his needs. And he will also do the same for you.

He respects everything about you.

Your opinions, your dreams, your beliefs, the things you do, the company you carry, your career. He doesn’t make you feel bad about the circumstances in your life.

And more important, he appreciates you as a person and the choices you decided to make.

Finally

The above list is not meant to judge your boyfriend or someone important to you. But, if he has the above signs you’re lucky to have him and you need to hold him. Men are so precious because when he loves someone, he will love that person unconditionally.

If you want to see good signs in your partner, you need to inspire him by starting to show yourself the good signs.

Note that a blessing is done through doing right, something you have worked for. Morality must begin inside of you.

To be successful in a relationship, you both need to support one another. So you will not just be better partners but you will have a better family.
