On one of my talks with a friend, he has mentioned the word "wife-material". Again, "wife-material"? What does that mean? Well, "wife-material" is word that pertains to characteristics of a woman that would make her an ideal wife. But what charactertics would that be? Like for a man's view, what are the characterics of a woman that make her a "wife-material" one? Of course, everyone may answer it differently. Answers will not be the same coz everyone has different perspectives. I tried ask friends to find their point of views and perhaps, to come up with common denominators.
I tried to get opinions from different people and for those who gave their views about this topic, I thank you.
My classmate in grade school answered, "she's the one who's responsible enough to take care of her own family-husband and kids."
My friend and co-worker commented, "a wife-material is someone who can be trusted."
My bestfriend replied, "she is someone who's always beside me through thick and thin; who always support me and no matter how tough it gets, she'll be the first to comfort me. Wife-material for me is simply someone whom i can call my "wife" without any doubt and pretention because she really is in every aspect of my life. A wife-material for me is someone, whom without a doubt, I can say 'she's my wife'."
One of my churchmates who has been married already answered, "she is a person who is loving, patient, gentle but firm, communicates her deepest emotion and feelings, vulnerable and sensitive to her partners need and wants. Someone who cries with you when your sad and rejoices in your smallest sucess."
My previous co-worker said, "Most filipinos would go for someone presentable, smart, kind, prudent, thrifty and perhaps, enterprising and religious. For me, she's someone who seeks to understand. She is a woman who seeks to be honest, but I think that follows naturally from being understanding."
On the other way around, women, like me, have also our standards on how we define "husband-material" man. I still have to ask my friends about their views about "husband-material man". I promise to update this by tomorrow.
For me, "husband-material" is :
The husband -material person...is a person who fears God and loves God first,and he is a person who is loving,patient, kind, understanding, gentleman,responsible, disciplined, persevering, honest and faithful. He is a person I can be trusted and my bestfriend. I can open up everything to him without hesitation and he accepts me as I am and stays beside me through thick and thin. He is a person I can talk about everything. He listens and he corrects me with just and love to be a better person.
I haven't found this person yet. But these characters are those we learn and acquire as we mature as an individual. So I might say he is existing or he is on the process to be a "husband-material" man.
