The Perfect Husband????You already have the Perfect Husband if you, the wife, learn why they respond to you the way they do. Men tend to process life in individual boxes, even when it comes to marriage. When you look at a waffle, it has many boxes separated by walls. They are like "holding areas". A man's thinking is divided into boxes that have room for just one issue. The typical man lives one box at a time. If he is at work, he is in his work box. If he is playing sports, he is in his play box. This is why wives get the "trance" look! They approach their husbands to talk when they are in a totally different box! In other words, men compartmentalize their thoughts. 
This is also why men are normally good problem solvers. They can go into their box, analyze the situation/problem, and find a solution. Most men also will stay in the boxes they are best at or most successful in. This is why men have a drive for success in the boxes they are good in. For example:-Yard work may become expressions of their personality. -They become consumed in fishing or hunting and pursue all the right equipment and areas to do so. -They love building things or fixing things and become emotionally involved in their tasks. The bottom line is that men feel best about themselves when they are solving problems and choose to ignore the things which make them feel insufficient. When wives learn to grasp this concept when communicating with their husband, he can become the perfect husband! In summary, men tend to view love in a wife's interest in sex, togetherness at sporting events, or in a husband's hobbies. For more in-depth studies on this topic, I suggest reading Men are Like Waffles, Women are Like Spaghetti by Bill & Pam Farrel. You can purchase this through Christian Book Distributors.
