In most cultures of the world, the woman is welcomed into a relationship with pomp and many families see the introduction into the household as a blessing so much that many brides’, families see the opportunity of a wedding as one to fleece the groom and his family.
However, times are changing and men are demanding that a lady must have some values to offer in the relationship. Coming with empty hands is no longer acceptable.
The Hope seek people’s opinions, on what a woman should offer in a marriage.
A woman should be supportive to her husband. Also, she should trust her husband or partner because without trust, the relationship will be jeopardized.
Also, a woman should offer partnership, companionship, respect and love to her partner as all these will make the marriage or the relationship to grow. Out of all these, love and respect is most crucial because no man wants a woman who is not respectful.
In marriage a woman should be able to offer equal contribution to offset the family expenses such as children school fees and feeding. She must not leave the burden of family expenses to the man alone. It’s killing the man’s morale.
She must also possess the following attributes: humility, and loyalty.
To me, there is nothing a woman can offer a guy. Many of them look up to men for handouts. They demand for urgent 2k. Before, women do offer advice but not now anymore. They are mostly immature and greedy. In the olden days, our mothers knew how to say calming words to their men. But now, ladies are self-centered. All they do now is to ask for money from the men in their lives.
Equal contribution-you should be able to provide for your man as much as he provides for you because he deserves to feel safe and loved too. Many men today are struggling under the burden of family expenses with no one to offer them support. It should not be so.
Women too must contribute to the family upkeep so that the burden does not weigh down the man.
A woman’s role in a relationship or marriage is to offer support, care and love to her husband and she should always be there when the man needs her the most. She must not let anything occupy her mind to the detriment of her marriage. She must understand how to balance her career and relationship. Her career and work must not take the shine out of her relationship with her husband.
Submission is key-When a woman submits to a man, it is the most precious gift she can give the man. A good woman has to respect and honour her husband with that gift above all. Many homes and relationships have broken down due to lack of submission on the part of the wife.
In a relationship, a woman should be supportive financially. If he is broke, she should be able to help him out if she has the money.
Every woman must have something she is doing; either a paid job or a business so that she can always pitch in when the man needs help.
We are helpers to each other but not all women can do this. Many of them prefer to only receive and not give.
Also, a woman should be truthful and trustworthy. Trust is a key ingredient in a relationship. When it is lost, everything would be tasteless.
Loyalty-She must be loyal to her man. Dishonesty can make a woman repulsive to you.
If a woman makes a commitment, she must make sure she sticks to it and mean what she says. She must stay loyal to him no matter how far they are to each other.
Better vision- A woman must have a clearer vision of what she wants from a relationship. She should take time to get really clear on what she wants the relationship to look like. A woman must endeavour to be closer to her partner.
Honesty-in relationship always tell your partner the truth and being totally open to him/her never lying or hiding the truth.
There is a lot a woman can offer in a relationship but the most essential are support, understanding and care. A woman who is truly in love with her partner will always put him first and do anything she can to make him happy. This includes being there for him when he needs emotional support helping out around the house and supporting financially that’s when is necessary.
Woman naturally encourage and support. It is good to tell our men they are doing a great job and that they are good at what they do.
It gives them self confidence and let them know they are doing really well.
It is good to support your man in all aspect and try to correct them when they are wrong. It is part of woman’s contribution in a relationship. Trust and respect are not exceptional.

A woman must be able to give attention to her husband. She must have time for the marriage. Nurturing a relationship requires time and patience. She must be ready to contribute money too when the need arises.
Hence; time, attention and money are very crucial factors..

In a relationship, women should offer care, trust, support and most especially love,and also women are supposed to be submissive to their partners so that there can be peace in their relationship.

Aside from sex that women offer to their partners in a relationship, they can also offer support, empathy, companionship and adventure. The last one will make the relationship exciting.
