Re: " I want Miss Perfect Syndrome of Men "
One evening. A beautiful woman and her uncle came to my home, looking for information about her husband who didn't back to the home more than two weeks.
I talked with her for few moments. Her uncle and my wife were watching. After she left my home, my wife asked me
"Is that her? your friend's wife?"
"Yes, she is"
Silent for a moment. Then my wife asked me again
"How could a beautiful woman like her married a man like your friend?"
I just smile and didn't give an answer. But suddenly I realized something and asked my wife
"Wait, is there someone who asked you why a woman like you married a man like me?"
My wife smile before she answered me
"Yes, all people who know you".
Okay, people can call me lucky man because I married a woman who expected by many men. She's not only beautiful but also meet criteria of "Miss Perfect". But how it feels to be a husband of "Miss Perfect"?.
I wrote in another forum. If a beautiful woman walks alone, people will look at her for few moment and saying "wow, she's beautiful". But when a beautiful woman walks with her husband, people will look at her for a while, then look at her husband longer and start asking "which part of this man that made his wife attracted to him?".
That's based on my experience.
"Miss perfect" is an unmarried woman. And after she got married, she become "Mrs Perfect", it's means her husband should be "Mister Perfect". But if her husband is far from perfect?.
Maybe many men do not know yet, Miss Perfect is a woman who beloved by people, and people expect her has a perfect husband. And if this Miss Perfect husband is far from people's criteria of perfect husband, people will start asking why she chose a man like that as her husband?. Cruelly, even some people can tell her "you can have a better husband if you want".
It can make the husband feel uncomfortable, feel afraid his wife will leave him. Even the husband can feel inferior because he feel his wife is "too high" for him. That's what happened to my friend.
For brother, how to deal if you are in this situation?.
- Close the ears. Let people say what they want, but don't listen to them.
- Do not ever try to be Mister Perfect. Attempt to be perfect mister will only lead to frustration because nobody can be perfect.
- Do not easily get suspicious your wife does not love you anymore, because she actually has her own reasons for marrying and loving you.
- Always remember, nobody perfect. Your wife too.
- Still love her.
Inshaallah, you will be able to overcome your uncomfortable feeling.
Now I have been married more than 17 years and I enjoy my marriage life. Is it because my wife is perfect woman?. No, but because she is not perfect woman. She just an ordinary woman who know how to treat me well, know how to love me. And although she has been 44, people keep saying that she is beautiful.
So, I am a lucky man, am I?
