Criticizing your body
Criticism is a toxic habit, no matter if you’re dissing yourself or your husband. While it’s never ok to have a partner that criticizes your body or the way you look, or be one, it’s also not ok to says bad things about yourself all the time.
If you have no confidence in yourself and are constantly complaining about your hips, legs and whatnot, don’t be shocked if your partner becomes a little vexed. At the end of the day, your husband loves you for who you are and hearing you say unpleasant things about yourself is like questioning his choice to marry you.
Getting jealous over platonic relationships
It’s not unusual to feel a little jealous when your husband praises one of his female coworkers or a new acquaintance. But if your tinge of jealousy turns into a constant interrogation, nagging and even cheating suspicions, don’t be surprised if things take a turn for the worse. After all, if your husband is doing nothing wrong, your annoying habit of blowing things out of proportion will start to frustrate him. If you have platonic relationships and you know there’s nothing else going on there, then trust that your husband thinks and acts the same.

There’s nothing more frustrating when you’re in a relationship than to feel that your opinion doesn’t matter.
