Do you have a habit of saying "I'll check with my husband"?

Every time I decide something,

I will ask my husband.

Have you ever answered that? 😌

Of course,

It is very important for couples to talk.

But, uh,

Before I knew it

Decide for yourself.

Than, uh,

Wait for the other person's answer.

If it had become commonplace...

Just a little,

Maybe you're putting your feelings behind.

Prioritizing family,

Prioritizing children,

Because I am a mom who spends every day hard,

"What do I want to do?"

I want you to take the time to ask yourself 🥹

Taking care of your family,

Taking care of yourself,

You don't have to choose one.

Can I take care of both 🌸

Being able to smile yourself,

It will surely lead to family smiles 😌

When everyone decides something,

Who to talk to first? ✨

... Read more私自身も以前は何か決めるたびに「旦那に聞いてみるね」と言うことが多く、自分の意見を後回しにしてしまうことがありました。家庭を支えるため、つい家族優先になってしまいがちですが、ふとした瞬間に「私はどうしたいのか?」を考える時間が必要だと気づきました。 例えば、日常の小さな決断でも、自分で選んでみると意外と自信がつき、自己肯定感が高まります。夫婦は上下関係ではなく、お互いの意見を尊重し合うパートナーだということを忘れずに、自分の人生の主役は自分自身であることを意識しています。 また、「旦那に確認します」が口癖になっていると、家族のために自分を犠牲にしているような気分になることもあります。そんな時は、ひとりの時間を確保して自分の考えや感情を整理することが大切です。自分が笑顔でいることが、結果的に家族の笑顔へとつながると感じています。 夫婦関係を良好に保つためにも、相談は必要ですが、最終的には自分の気持ちを尊重しながら決めること。もし「旦那に確認します」と言う回数が多いと感じたら、ぜひ一度立ち止まって自分の本音と向き合ってみてください。そうすることで、より自分らしい生活を送れるようになるはずです。
