It was laundry time and I was down to my last and least favorite bra. Throughout the day, the bra was a nuisance and made me really appreciative of my good bras. And when I thought about it some more, I realized that the qualities of a good bra can also be found in a good husband.
Here are four of them.
A good bra and a good husband will never stab you in the back. The underwire of a good bra is meant to provide support. When the underwire in your bra stabs and pinches pieces of your flesh and makes you wish you never put it on, you know it is time to get rid of the bra. Similarly, a good husband never betrays your trust and is there for you to lean on when you feel overwhelmed. When you notice that your husband goes out of his way to make you feel less than, tells you that your ideas and dreams are dumb, or tells you that you can’t be who you are, then it may be time for some counseling or time for you to move on.
A good bra and a good husband make you feel sexy. When I put on my favorite bras, I know that I linger a bit longer in the mirror, add an extra spritz of my favorite perfume, and feel like I can take over the world at work. The same should occur with a good husband. A good husband tells you what he loves about you without prompting. He compliments you and makes you feel desired. In addition to his words, he shows that he believes you are sexy: a fondle, a booty smack, a long kiss, a poem, a serenade.
A good bra and a good husband make you look good. One of the reasons that you love your best bras are because they do an excellent job of making you look good, whether you are trying to round out, push up, smooth out, or minimize your girls.
When it comes to marriage, you know that you have a good husband when he protects and praises you in company and when you aren’t around. He will tell family members to stay out of your business in the same way that he will brag about you to his coworkers and friends.
A good bra and a good husband are built to last. You probably had to do some significant bra shopping to pick the brand that works for you. And more than likely, your best bras are not made from cheap flimsy material. When you take care of your delicates, they don’t disappoint. The lace stays intact, the straps stay firm, and material doesn’t pucker. As for a good husband, you probably had to date a lot of losers before you found your prince. He possesses all of the qualities that you need for a happy and meaningful life. And when you pour into him, you can be sure that he will be your partner-in-crime for the rest of your life.
