“Rottenness in his bones”

I found a blog  the red headed hostess that I really like. I go to it for ideas on scripture study. I liked the idea of a topic journal for scripture study, so I made me one. I have to say I am getting a lot of my studies using it. I have added other categories than just the ones she suggests. For instance I did a study on what it means to be a wife. Proverbs 12:4 really hit me as I was studying this topic.
A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
The second  part really hit me. I know I have made my husband feel less of a man or “ashamed.” So I have contributed to him maybe dying a little inside? How would you interpret “rottenness in his bones?”

I don't want to be guilty of this ever again.
