Al-Bukhaari (55) and Muslim (1002) narrated from Abu Mas’ood al-Badri (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: [quote]“If a Muslim spends on his family, seeking reward for that with Allaah, then it will an act of charity on his part.” [/quote]

Spend can mean time, money, happiness etc.

I do for my wife everything I can to make her happy and her life pleasant!

I agree with you

If you're in love you should do things that you don't normally do for other people. One reason is because those abnormal things are special and unique all the same to the person that you're in love with..

If he wouldn't do them, he wouldn't do them. Why should being someone's husband mean he has to? Boundaries should be respected especially in marriage.

I agree with you, Violet. I am a works of service kind of love language person. If someone truly loves you, they should do things for you without question, and vice versa!!!!

There are plenty of things I do for my wife, that if anyone else asked me to do I'd tell them to eff off. That's part of love. She does the same for me.

You are spot on. We do things for our husbands that no one else BETTER try, and they should do things for us that no one else BETTER try.

I would say it's reasonable. It's how I treat my wife, after all, she's not just anyone to me.

When I was truly in love, I would do any and everything for my wife. I believe that it is your friend who is way off.

[i][c=#BF0080]I think I'd agree, but it definitely would depend on what the specific things were. [/c][/i]

If you ask nicely, he should be happy to do pretty well anything (within reason).

Going abovecand beyond for a lover is one thing. Having your lover expecting it as normal is another.

That's how it should be but never happens

if you think they owe it to you, your relationship is going to turn real ugly real quick
