True as that may be, it’s not uncommon for a husband to feel like he’s become his wife’s last priority. “They often crave the level of interest, attention, and affection they see their wives lavishing on their children. They miss the easy, fun passion their relationship once held.”

As verbs the difference between hate and resent is that hate is to dislike intensely or greatly while resent is to express or exhibit displeasure or indignation at (words or acts) or resent can be (resend).

Resentment tends to arise in marriage when one spouse is either knowingly or unknowingly taking advantage of the other–or taking the other for granted. Habitual poor behaviors or unhealthy patterns feed resentment. Some common issues that cause resentment between spouses include: Habitual selfish behaviors.

One of the biggest reasons that a husband will ever continually disrespect his wife, is because he himself has a low self confidence. His way of dealing with that is to make his wife feel small and point out her every flaw instead. Or, perhaps by seeking gratification in the arms of another woman out side the marriage.

Like love, regret is a complicated emotion. Your husband may well regret his decision to leave you, and this could be the case even if he doesn’t want to return to you. He may realize that the grass is not greener on the other side if his new relationship isn’t everything he had hoped for.

But more recent studies confirm that, indeed, between 32% and 50% of people do regret having made the move. These people wish they had worked harder at their relationships and stayed married. The exact percentages depend on who did the studies.

The partner eventually cheats, and having one other person actually be nice to them, appreciate them and see them in a positive light ends up boosting their self-confidence enough that they finally have the courage to leave the abuser. Yes there is regret – regret that they didn’t leave sooner.

Sadly, most men will not instantly regret the hurt they’ve doled out on you. If you want them to feel remorse, you will need to give it time. Usually, after around one to six months, they will start to regret dumping you.

Yes, guys do regret losing a good girl, especially if they had any degree of care, attachment and attraction for her. When they are alone or nostalgic, that is when they will usually start to miss her and regret losing her.

So the answer to the original question, can silence make a man miss you? It absolutely can, but it won’t do it just by itself. You have to be willing to take a risk, to go there.

Another truth: Men have varying levels of remorse and guilt of cheating, whether their partners know anything about their affairs or not. Sometimes, when a man feels guilty for cheating, he is being eaten away. He feels deep remorse and regret. And, well, some had no regrets at all.

It is estimated that if someone cheated before, there is a 350 percent chance that they will cheat again, compared to those who have never cheated. In the same study that states that cheaters will cheat again, they found that those who have been cheated on will most likely be cheated on again.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean they regret cheating. Most people who have cheated on a partner don’t necessarily regret the act of cheating until they are caught. This suggests that they aren’t really remorseful for the act, but rather, regret what they are likely to lose now that the cat’s out of the bag.

Usually in this scenario, the cheater who is confronted breaks down and feels remorse. He or she takes accountability for what they did and makes it clear to the other that they will stop and that they want to work things out.

Between one in four to five Americans have an affair in their lifetime. Among men, 68% feel guilty after having an affair. Even if they haven’t confessed the affair, most cheating husbands will feel guilty and express that guilt in their behavior.

3. Honesty. You can’t cheat on someone without lying to them.
4. Patience. Real remorse understands that repairing a relationship after infidelity is a long haul with dubious prospects.
5. Ownership.

But anyone who thinks that affairs are no big deal if the marriage doesn’t end should stop kidding himself. The pain can last a lifetime. It can forever change how one feels about one’s partner.”
