'Affair-Proof ' your 'Human Relationship'....?

Dr. Willard F. Harley, Jr. says men and women almost universally have 5 primary needs that  (according to him), MUST be met to assure a....

.... prospering, 

.... affair-proof marriage. 

Those needs are:

Men
1. Sexual fulfillment
2. Recreational companionship
3. An attractive spouse
4. Domestic support
5. Admiration

Women
1. Affection
2. Conversation
3. Honesty and openness
4. Financial support
5. Family commitment

Sure, God fills all needs but that's why He gave Adam Eve and Eve Adam. 

It's when they didn't fulfill the purpose that they were meant for that there was trouble in paradise..... 

Instead of worrying so much about whether or if your spouse has had or will have an affair, do something to help reduce the chances of it happening.....

Mutually as Spouse, look at the five greatest needs of your 'other-half ' & ask yourself, ( vice versa)..... answering the question with honest-rated answers:

"How am I doing at affair-proofing my marriage and fulfilling those five primary needs of my Spouse?" 

Take time to be honest with yourself and not argue with or rationalize the needs, the needs are real.  

Nevertheless the above that are much positive to be said about the validity of the 'cold-blooded unemotional' quantifiable scientific R&D in this regard, I believe there are aspects that are missing from the above.....

What about the 'NOT mentioned role of........

* Love ( being used within the Christian Paradigm ) of what it was intended, to mean...?

* Commitment - Unwavering,  in the context of a Covenant made among both spouses with God ?

* (The list is yet to be completed...)

The '5 Primary Needs' as listed above are from a human perspective....

What should it be, -from a 'Godly, Jesus Christ', perspective.....?

I dare YOU to write 'those attributes' down in the  'comments section' ( see below on the blog), for both categories of men & women...!
