I have a husband who is very smart and is a CPA. He married a very creative woman who’s feminine and happens to be a hairdresser. When we bought our home he let me decorate the whole thing the way I want, it he took care of the budget, he told me how much we had to spend and I respected that and stayed within my budget. I’m the creative one who can decorate. He can’t decorate he’s not that type of man. He loves everything I pick out. I’m very feminine and have a very comfortable home that he loves.

As a personal friend of Jorge and Nikki, I can confirm that this is 100% accurate of their relationship and always has been well before this channel existed. When I visit their house I have never felt the home looked or felt “girly” or overly feminine, Nikki makes the home feel warm and comfortable and that’s all I have ever felt about it and I’m saying that as a guy. It’s strange to think that anyone would feel uncomfortable or awkward in their home, especially Jorge.

Or not pick up another job or do online schooling to better your families situation when he has free time. Or have you work from home, homeschool, pay the bills and clean up after everyone in the house (even him) and treat you cruely if he is in a bad mood. Not everyone is blessed with a traditional man.

After 40 years of marriage I realized that I completely misunderstood the whole thing. For him it wasn’t about the things, it was about the feel. As I brought my personality into each paint color choice and decor item I was Blessing our home; Making it warm and cozy for our family. That is what he loved. That is what has made him feel comfortable and relaxed at the end of a long hard day at work.

I’ve been married 30 years, dated my husband 4 years and our home makes my husband feel “at home”. My husband takes care of the things I don’t want to do and I love taking care of the home and family. I never wanted to work and my husband said I’d never have to if I didn’t want to. When we were young that meant sacrifice and building a life together.

My guess is that although he may not notice when a specific change is made, it most likely does effect his mood. That is what we do. We create a mood, an emotion, a personality. We express who we are in our homemaking. The fact is, our husbands married each of us because they were drawn to who we are as women. The way we make a home is part of that. So of course he loves the way the home looks; it looks like his beautiful wife whom he loves. I so appreciate the way that you both love and honor each other. It is such a blessing to see that this kind of relationship and mutual respect still exists in younger generations. 💕

Each marriage is different. In my case, my husband cares about everything regarding the house as decorations, furniture, etc. We choose together the way the house looks (paint color, furniture, appliances, even the curtains) so our home reflects the taste of both. The decoration of our house is neither masculine nor feminine but one that has the preferences of both, approved by consensus. It has feminine touches in some areas and masculine touches in others. With me there is no problem with this because, although also I consider myself very feminine, the decoration that I like is sophisticated modern style rather than classic and romantic with flowers, etc. I think this helps a lot in my case ... LOL. But every person is different and there are men, like Jorge that prefer that his wife decor the house and is very valid too. Beautiful video!

Same for us-my husband cares about this stuff, so when I choose things for the house I take his tastes into account and ask for his input.

That’s what works for us (and has for the 40-plus years we’ve been married).

Over the years when we have his business associates over, they have been surprised and teased him a little and he just blew it off. He has his man cave and shop area & I let him make the decision how to decorate and organize those areas.

You are a GOOD man Jorge. I have been married for 51 years!! My husband has very similar views. In all these years...he has slept in his share of pink bedrooms 🙂 even in floral sheets....imagine that!😉 His concern...the bed was comfortable and I was snuggled up next to him. It's not that we necessarily focused on a "division of labor " by sex...it seemed natural...and...as we believe in God's plan. That's not to say that my husband didn't change diapers, wash dishes, give the children baths..etc. or that I never mowed the grass, pulled weeds, painted siding, changed light bulbs..etc. We have always been a team...working together. Thru the years sometimes we have decorated our home together if/when it matters and compromised when needed. One of our boys married a woman with her own professional career...their way is different yet traditional. They share most all of the household and children responsibilities but she still honors him as head of their home and he strives to please her, guards and protects their family unit. So...that works too. I think it all comes down to the love and respect that we give in a marriage....Love your spouse as you would love yourself. Some days one or the other gives or takes a little less or more...but the heart is always...100% . I've watched your channel for quit some time....you are on the right path.

The sales lady said he’s so good to me. And she’s right:) thank you so much for the male perspective on this.

My husband has had an identical attitude for the 33 years we've been married. When it comes to decor, all he cares about is the cost, and whether it obscures his view of the TV. And, he likes living with a happy, feminine wife, so he helps me make our home beautiful and comfortable. That's one way he expresses his love for me. And I return that by taking the best care of him that I can. It it works, I say, stick with it!

Oh my goodness!!! You two are so lovely and genuine about all of this! It was like watching and listening to my husband as Jorge explained his thoughts on these topics! You two are so right though, it is about each of you serving and giving to each other. Thats how The Good Lord works out all of our 'fleshly' ways, by thinking about others needs first, serving one another without tying to dominate or crush each other, but encourage, bless, and edify each other for Love sake. You are a beautiful example to others. And Jorge is right, its not about compromise or delineating who should do each task, but serving one another because you want to bless your spouse and appreciating that the 'Home' can reflect love, order and beauty OR chaos, neglect and stress. The modern way, is for each to get, take and do what they want until they are no longer 'happy' or satisfied with their spouse (or whatever) then they move on, because they are not happy... But this is not love, this is selfish, and the opposite of love. As Christians, we are commanded to Love one another, you obviously know and live by this! For a young couple you two have a lot of things figured out, to the glory of our Lord and Saviour. Most Sincerely, Raven

7:44 this helps me...i actually asked my husband about this ...he said, "I see YOU in each room of our home and that is all i need to remember." I will cherish those words for the rest of my life.

Sorry, but I'm old school as well and agree wholeheartedly. inside is my responsibility. inside comfortable and in charge of what goes on inside of the home.

I have learned about my husband that feminine touches here and there don't bother him a bit, but if he walks into a space that looks entirely feminine, he doesn't feel like it's HIS home. Through lots of little conversations as we remodel our home, I have learned which things matter to him and which don't, and he has learned the same about me. Marriage is a journey of discovery and learning where your interests overlap in the areas that matter to both spouses. It's a wonderful, complicated, beautiful thing!

Your home is beautiful! Your relationship is fantastic and so sweet! I’m lucky I have a husband who is fine with pink & feminine decor. He says he’s secure in his manhood, so pink is OK with him. I do 80% of the decor & the other 20% we do together. We moved into a new home 3 years ago & started from scratch. He wanted plantation shutters in the front of our house, I agreed & choose the color (white). We will be married 25 years in June. ❤️

If you're husband wants his say all over the house I wouldn't wanna be married to someone like that period it's just plain weird. But then I have more of a traditional marriage and I loved these type of values. It makes her so feminine and him so masculine.

Very interesting video! I agree 100% that in marriage you need to have an understanding of what’s important to each spouse, and each marriage will be different. I was hoping after watching this video and sharing the information with my husband, I may be able to get at least one pink room, but instead, you convinced me I don’t need one. My husband is also very traditional in taking care of the car, things that need to be done in the yard, he lifts the heavy things and fixes whatever’s not working, but my husband does care about the decor. He and I love picking out paint together and thrifting for furniture, lamps, and wall hangings, and we both have a love for older and more traditional style pieces, which is something I love about our marriage! But after hearing your husband say he doesn’t care at all about the interior design and that’s why you can have pink without it bothering him, it really makes me want to honor my husband’s preference to not having pink walls in our decor. Very well done. Thank you for sharing!

This video is amazing. Honestly, I already assumed that he felt this way, I never wondered about it. But this is just beautiful to watch/listen to. Made me tear up. Hahahaha Jorge's conclusion is cracking me up! Yes my husband does care and would not want pink decor and flowery stuff, but... Neither would I. We have a pretty good agreement about our home and decor, and it's my job to decorate, but I get his input on it because he does care. 🤷 Everyone has to do what works for them and their marriage. This video was wonderful though. Love it.

My husband and I will be married 40 years in April. You two have nailed it in what works in a marriage. To answer your question, my husband only cares to a point and asks that he just doesn't hate it. But we make a good team, much like the two of you. I design and envision it, he builds and hangs things up, and does my muscle work. When I say nail it, he asks, "How high?" 😅 I love the humor in here as well. I'm a new subscriber and enjoy seeing a woman who loves taking care of her home. It's a lost art. Truly inspirational. God bless you!

I understand the "traditional" gender roles. My marriage is that way too. Jorge is very truthful . Seems he is happy if Nicki is happy!! He just really doesn't care about decor, he does care about Nicki and his relationship with her. That is wonderful, I see MANY wonderful years ahead for their marriage and family ! :)

We need more of this! Make this main stream! This is a healthy marriage. I've also in the 16th year of marriage. And my husband is similar to this. But I am not naturally a decorator. So I. Used to get so mad with zero input. I've now decided recently I like it better this way .
