Tyler Perry's Temptation #RelationshipLessons



I just watched Tyler Perry's Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor yesterday and even though I'm a single man I learned some vital relationship and marriage lessons:
1. As a husband, the most important person in your life is your wife but don't ever assume she knows this. Tell her all the time. Women like to hear good things about themselves.
2. As a husband, don't ever assume some things don't matter, like when she changes her hair or wears it differently or when she puts on extra makeup.

3. Dear husband, don't ever forget her birthday.
4. Dear husband, even if you don't have much, give her all you can. Always support her dreams, hopes and aspirations. She'll love you for it.
5. As a wife, never compare your man with another, you'll pay dearly for it. He is who he can be; it's your job to make him more than he is. That's why you are his help meet.
6. As a wife, try your best to tell him when he upsets you, he can't read your mind.
7. Both of you must remember that your friendship is even more important than your romance. Romance may fade, friendship will help you stick together through rough patches.

  1. 'Romance may fade, friendship will help you stick together through rough patches.' My favorite line. Most people don't realize this. They think passion aηd romance is all there is to a relationship. But the thing with sparks is they fizzle out if not sustained. Couples who are friends too last.

  2. Yes, that line is very true. It's even my own philosophy on romantic relationships.

  3. Nice one. Friendship is important...true. Another problem was the fact that the lady in the movie gave the guy clue on what's up with her marriage and he used it against her.
