Born to Be Wise

A Woman's Perspective

You married one of the good guys.


At least, you believed he was a good man when you married him.

He was cute and funny. Smart. Protective.

He had purpose and vision.

He was crazy in love with you.

You felt special and beautiful.

Your heart skipped a beat.

Your spirit sparkled.

You were excited—truly excited—to spend the rest of your life with your best friend.

But something changed.


Slowly at first.

So slowly, in fact, that you ignored it for a long time.

Now you feel disconnected.

Alone in your marriage.

He’s still a good guy.

So why does he spend so much time at work?

Why doesn’t he seem to want to spend time with you anymore?

You no longer share dreams with one another.

Your conversations revolve around the kids …

or the next task on a never-ending list.

Your friends don’t know how unhappy you are.

A few women in your social circle have shared their own complaints—

which quickly turned into all-out husband-bashing.

That didn’t feel helpful.

So you stayed quiet.

Sad.

Confused.

Achingly lonely.

And then—suddenly—you remember something you read once:

A wise woman builds her house,

but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.


Maybe that’s the problem.

You were born to be wise.

You’ve worked hard at building your home, nurturing your children, and holding everything together.

But when it comes to your husband …
perhaps you’ve been operating under the wrong assumptions.

No wonder you’re frustrated.

You’ve been lied to.

About men.

And about marriage.

And now—
you can finally learn the truth about both.

You don’t need to do anything yet.


The next step is simply understanding—
what he thinks, how he feels, and why the two of you are quietly drifting apart.
