A recent study by the Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatley Institute reveals key factors that significantly enhance marital happiness among wives. The research indicates that four primary attributes in husbands – commitment, protectiveness, shared church attendance and regular date nights – lead to a much higher likelihood of wives reporting being “very happy” in their marriages.
Commitment
First, and perhaps not surprisingly, the study reveals that wives with committed husbands are 399% more likely to report being very happy in their marriages. This data point illustrates the importance of husbands demonstrating dedication to the marital relationship.
