1. They deserve forgiveness:
since we all enjoy the mercies of God even when felt we do not deserve it, He still forgive's us ALL our sin as long as we ask for Mercy(2 Chronicles 7:14).
And again we pray according to the book of Matthew 6: 12:' forgive is our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.'
No matter what he might have done to you & how much it hurts, please forgive him for your own sake.
To be happy, to live a longer life and to remain healthy, you must learn to forgive. Moreover, don't allow anyone be the reason why your blood pressure should rise.
2. They deserve Care/Attention:
Men are like babies(so they always say), they need someone who can understand them and help them in ways they can/can't help themselves. In the best way you can, make them feel loved and cherished; ask them about their day & be geniunely concerned about it, their health and total soundness, give advice where necessary(useful & meaningful ones).
that way, they'll reciprocate no matter how tough they might have been.
3. While doing the two things stated above, don't overlook this; that They deserve to hear the Truth:
There's absolutely no need to hide the truth from them, especially if what they've done is wrong.
There should be no petting for the reasons of 'so I can stay'. if what they do hurt you, tell it to them,
if you catch them red-handed telling lies; let them know that lies are not welcome. In what ever way you can(politely though) be totally honest in relating their shot-coming to them, If they are too bossy; let them know, if they are too harsh; inform them, if they are womanizing; bring it to thier attention cos they might not be aware of it(lol).
you are there to support them aren't you? and so support them in a way that will affect their life positively.
And DON'T forget to commend them when required. It'll make them feel happy and willing to do better when presented another opportunity *wink* .
