Some say men can have multiple wives but not vice versa. This would conflict with a man having "his own" wife and he being "her own" husband.

1Cor 7:2-3: "Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband."

That didn't answer my question.

Certainly men and women have different roles. What does the Bible say that indicates different requirements for husbands and wives with regard to forgiveness and reconciliation?

Eph 5:22: "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord."

Eph 5:25: "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;"
