       I’m not saying a man has to become an extrovert to be confident. There are many introverts, myself included, who can display confidence. The wife is not to lead her husband, but rather let the husband lead her. This doesn’t mean the wife does not provide wisdom for her husband, or even teach him things by what she says to him. However, when the woman tries to overly teach her man, or even provide correction to him, which is not from God, this causes friction to develop in the relationship. The marriage relationship is not supposed to be an argumentative one, but this is one way that arguments can develop. Remember, love needs to be central to whatever advice or correction is given. For a wife to submit to her husband means that she yields to him when he wants her to. This doesn’t mean the wife doesn’t have say in things, it just means the husband is the ultimate decider in the varying situations of life that come along.
