Why A Man Needs A Woman’s Correction
Some women feel as though they can not lead a relationship because they don’t know how to express their desires to a man. They second guess themselves, blaming their dissatisfaction with a man’s behavior on being too emotional or wanting too much. These type of women place the man’s happiness above their own. They don’t want to upset a man by complaining so they accept whatever behavior is offered to them. On the inside they are seething and beating themselves up for not being willing to correct the unacceptable behavior.
The women who place the man’s happiness above their own should understand that honoring a man’s happiness means pushing him to be happier. He can’t be completely happy and prosperous if he is allowed to make destructive decisions for himself. He can’t be happy and prosperous if the woman he is with is not happy and prosperous. If he is a great man, then everyone connected to him should also be great. If he is not offering treatment that makes a woman feel great then he can’t be great. If he is such a great man then he should be great in all areas. Withholding correction is like sabotaging his ultimate success.
A woman needs to correct a man’s behavior if she truly cares about him. She can not allow him to make poor financial decisions, abuse his body or place himself in situations that could threaten his life. Caring about him means speaking up when he is headed in the wrong direction. Caring about a man means putting a stop to behavior that does not exemplify the greatness that she sees in him.
A woman should only allow greatness from the man she loves. Any misbehavior, poor mental attitude or poor treatment of others should be corrected immediately.
How does a woman correct a man?
She boldly explains to him what the behavior is that does not exemplify greatness. She then explains how he should correct the behavior. She then requires that he correct the behavior or risk losing her love and devotion to him.
Correction is caring.
Don’t sit by and allow a man to drown to appease his ego. Rescue him. Show a man that you care by recognizing when he is headed in the wrong direction and setting him on the right path. If you truly care you will address offenses and bad decisions immediately. A truly great man won’t resent you for it. He will appreciate that you care enough to help him achieve his ultimate version of success. He will feel lucky to have you. If you truly care for him, keep him in line with the greatness you see in him. He will thank you for it.
Very well said! The wise council of a loving woman is more precious than silver or gold!
Wow! I honestly agree with every word! Such great advice!
It is a lucky man who has a woman who corrects with love and wisdom
I truly believe in this post. Most men do need to be corrected by a loving woman
Thank you Te-Erica.
Spot on! In past I either listened poorly or took “corrections” as criticism so never followed through. Now, my eyes and ears are more open and am ready to truly honor and respect the Woman-to-be in my lifeThanks, Tia
From now on I will think more carefully when corrected by a woman, instead of immediately getting on my high horse. I cant tell you how important your service is Te-Erika. We men really do need you.
Thank you for this great piece of advice- it’s opened my eyes so much! I look forward to really engaging in the process of redefining my role and behaviour that I may become more of the man who should be within my relationship with my strong wife.
In a normal but non-FLR relationship, both parters would be free to offer such advice to each other. However in a Loving FLR, because the relationship is unequal, I assume only the wife is allowed to offer such criticism/advice and insist on correction.
Not because his comments would be inaccurate but because he is being to uppity in assuming he has the right to criticize his wife. Plus since she is female, is it assumed that she is without fault? Or if she is honest and admits to having some faults, does he have the right to reciprocate and demand she correct her faults?
Hello Te-Erica
i have only met one woman in my life who i felt need to give a hand of correction and that was my Mother and outside of that I have never met one who I felt I needed to have from her correction and when a man does this to woman the women usually balk at this as though she needed me to give her correction in any matter. Women of today do not respond well when a man corrects her as woman today are more empowered and usually push back when we Men do it in a relationship

I have done a lot of reading on this and listening to tapes and it seems the F:LR has many factors going against it such as fetishes, comparison’s to BDSM and the femdom thing which i would never ever do and I even saw where there is the possibility of the wife in this relationship taking on a lover-like in cuckolding which I hope and pray I misunderstood this part and i read where it says dealing with your husbands fetishes of which I have none. I even read where there is discipline of the husband which I certainly pray to the Lord this is not the case as i have been abused by women in my childhood at the hands of a woman and my last marriage there was abuse of my last wife due to her being Bi Polar and was part of her illness. some men just don’t respond well to a woman outside of a mother in disciplining. I never saw my mother do such things with my father. i am just trying to understand this. i read some of it and my heart leans and hungers for a woman who can be loving and leading in such a way that it is healthy of which i am not confident of, Kind Regards, Lou
It depressed me to see that men are treated as incompetent childlike beings who need to be disciplined all the time and have their needs placed on the back burner at best. All I’ve seen on this site is that females can do no wrong and males can do no right on their own. Males can not even be trusted with their own finances. This makes me cry. I want a female who accepts me for who I am as an equal with dignity.
I see FLRs as a team approach to living a good life with she giving more direction to the male in all matters.We males are More susceptible to pictures and impulse.In our prehistoric beginning it was necessary to survival.But that has lessened in today’s world
From my experiences it has been the woman who has been more emotional and impulsive than the man. I see nothing in here relating to her being accountable for fixing her flaws. I do not know of a living human being without flaws. To say only men have flaws is very wrong. I strongly feel even a person in leadership should be held accountable to needing correction too.
