Super Woman: Being The Better Half Of A Tougher Half

The tragedy of losing one’s husband is incomparable to any other pain that a woman can face in her life. Imagine the plight of a woman whose husband’s livelihood is dependent on putting his life on harm’s way to protect the country. No guide to a happy household can teach a lady how to transform into the super woman who plays the difficult role of being a soldier’s wife but we can still make some effort to understand a few attributes that she should have to help the family move along such a difficult job.

Trying to know and understand what your husband does all day at his workplace sounds like a cumbersome task. But in this particular situation, the wife should know what he does and why he does it to understand him as a person. Joining the forces is not a random outcome of an aptitude test that we take in college. It’s a call that a man responds from deep within. Unlike other occupations, it is not a money oriented approach and unlike other jobs, soldiers don’t compete with co-workers. The only beef they have is against the threat towards their motherland. So, as a smart super woman like wife, take interest in what your husband went through all day to make a better partner.

You may find that your husband is the best of pals with the men he fights with, but that doesn’t hold true for the friend’s wife. As a community, you may find that the families you interact with may be minimal but you should not put too much efforts in making close friends with the wives of other combatants because that has proved to be hell wrecking in many a cases. Unnecessary sharing and bonding with the wrong person just because she a soldier’s wife can bring about loads of drama in your life. Listen to the super woman inside you for prudence in such matters.

Military life is known for its discipline and etiquette. Your husband may be the rugged sweaty hot head during the day, but in an evening party, he will transform into a perfect gentleman and he will expect nothing less than a sophisticated splendor next to him. It goes without saying that you will need to feed off some fashion and proprieties from the super woman inside you so that your man need not hold himself back from showing you off to his family and friends.

The most wanted virtue to glide through such an unusual marriage is patience. Military deployments, courses, covert operations can take away your companion for a very long time and in most of the cases he will not be able to contact home for quite a few days. Only super woman like fortitude and ability to run the house alone can help you see the light in the end of the tunnel.
