I am not married yet because my boyfriend od seven years that I have a child with keeps procrastinating about making the committment. He has asked if the time come would I marry him,but no formal proposal or even recognizing me as his girlfriend. My question is am I being nieve to think this man will commit to me eventually or is he just"getting the milk for free" I have pursued measures to just end the relationship and make him pay court ordered child support rather than continue living in sin with someone who doesnt love me enough to marry me and make our relationship a family. Am I wrong in doing so? I know the Bible says to be patient and forgiving but I also dont want to be a stupid role model for my children either. Can anyone relate to my situation?

When you do go to marriage counseling, how do you know when you have found the right counselor? Christian counselors in Ohio is only a title. They are not allowed to refer to any scripture, or any particular doctrine unless both people and counselor are in agreement of such. A big run around.

I'm sick of everyone complaining about their marriage. You had it on your heart to get married. So find a way to make it work. Unless you are being beaten or abused. In that case it's fine to divorce. Even if your marriage ends up as just a good friendship. What's amazing is my aunt was only married for about 2 years when her husband suffered a stroke. Since then, she has remained faithful and caring to him. Their relationship changed so much. She still loves him, but in a different way. Never once has she truely thought of leaving him...even though things can get tough. That's what MARRIAGE is. Not being a * when it gets tough. Get over your issues and work through it. Prayer is good, but you got to do your part. My aunt will be my example when I marry.

My husband and I are going through some very rough times. We both committed sins against each other. During a brief separation he became the sincere man that I fell in love with 9 years ago. Once I came back home things became a slippery slope. I know God as my Lord and Savior and he believes. I have forgiven and asked for forgiveness. It seems he has already forgotten how much our marriage is worth. I ask for prayer that he remembers. For God to strengthen our marriage. I took our vowels seriously almost 8 years ago when I made them. God brought us together when he did for a reason and has blessed us with beautiful children that are now feeling his push. I pray that he helps us fix it and devine intervention to keep it together and allow the happiness and unconditional love back.
I ask my brothers and sisters to pray for the same...Please God help! And heal us!

My wife moved out about 2 months ago and we have signed divorce papers. I am believing that God will restore our marriage. I am a true believer in Jesus Christ and so is my wife. She evens knows that she is doing wrong but says she cannot trust me anymore. I used to drink heavy but God has set me totally free and she has even seen what God has done but she says that the "in love feeling" has gone but I know that God can restore that. I have been through many battles in prayer about this going on 4 months now and it has been VERY hard but deep in my heart I believe that God is healing us. Maybe we can all agree for our situations and all have wonderful PRAISE reports. I have had to learn patience and that has been so hard I can't describe it. The battles and doubts that come to my head are so bad, not my heart but in my mind and it is hard trying to battle that but God wants to heal my marriage as well as yours. In Malachi, God says that he HATES divorce, well, I agree with him, SO DO I

Kerry, I know it's been almost a year since you posted that message about you and your wife having some difficulties. I hope things have been resolved and your marriage has been saved, but if you are still enduring hard times with her, you need to realise that people won't change unless they want to. You can pray that God have conviction on her heart, but if she doesn't want to change, you can't do anything to get her to see that she needs help. Most people that have issues think there is nothing wrong with them, but sometimes it takes God's divine intervention and conviction on the heart for people to realise that they have a problem, and they need help. You might want to look into counseling. My parents have had marriage issues since they were married, they are still together after 31 years, but my dad never thought he had a problem, and he didn't like counseling because he believes he doesn't have a problem. They became Christians a year before I was born, and my dad still struggles with admitting that he is wrong, and needs help. I truly hope that by now your wife has decided to seek help. If not, I am truly sorry. I will definitely be praying for you nonetheless. God bless, and take care!

First off I will pray for all that I have read above.. I ask in return the same favor.

My wife moved out 4 months ago, and severed me with divorce papers. I pray that God will stop her from following through, to open her heart, to love me. There has been no cheating, or abuse (physical/verbal). yes there have been heated arguments in the past. I pray that God will let us forgive and forget past deeds done and embark on a new relationship with each other. I pray that God will intercede and show us the way to heal our marriage. I am pretty devastated over this, I love her deeply. she says she isn't in love, and that to many things have happened to want to try and restore. I pray that God move these mountains, and show me hope in standing for this marriage.. This too is our 2nd marriage each. Please pray for us! My name is Chris and her's is Isabella. I also have a son from my previous marriage, that this is affecting him too. His name is Devon.

Thank you-

I am so ashamed to say." I don't love my husband. I am not nice to him. I do have reasons. He works so hard on our relationship and his pornography struggles. He is a good worker and a genital praying man. I try to be nice,kind and loving to him but I just dont feel it.I don't want a divorce I just want to love him. Please pray for us.

It is Christmas time I have known for the last three months my wife is unhappy. She continued to talk about a spirit that has fell over her, as she talked i prayed. Well she has moved out. We have three lovely children, and it has taken its toll on them. I am trying to keep faith but I am fainting. Now that she is away, a piece of me is gone. I have to be strong for my children, but they are looking at me like daddy fix this. I just wish i knew how. All I do is pray. Very sad Very hurt Feel betrayed.

Hello Everyone, This is the first time I have done this. My wife and I have been married for 6 1/2 years and prior to that we dated for 3 years. We just gave birth to a very beautiful baby boy in January. There where many complications to the birth, she lost alot of blood due to hemoraging. After 12 trips to 3 different hospitals ER's she has been diagnoced with non-epoleptic seizers which has no treatment. Lately my wife has been getting very upset and wants a divoce. I love my wife and my son very much and would do anything for them. She has been staying with her parents due to the fact the seizers and our house is under some major re-designing. She has some problems with her wrist and hips and just recently I have 2 problems with my right arm and my left knee, right foot and right knee. Even with these problems I am doing the work in the myself and work 2 jobs to make ends meat and take care of our son. We are stuggling financially and I have no idea where to turn. Please help us God to strengthen our marrage and to get back on our feet. Please take away all of my wifes anger and frustrationand help me be a better person. God please take away all of my sins and don't let me sin again. Pleas wash away all my sins and the sind of my wife help us be a happy family. All payers would be helpful

I am not married yet. he proposed oct. three days before goin missin, well he was missing twenty minutes before his parents called and said he was in jail. All i wanted was for him to go to the hospital. Well they treated his ilness in that jail. the offenses were in two states, as driving during a mental breakdown can take you. he got out of newhamphire in sept. on his birthday. then on november 4th he went into maine. He gets out on the 16th. I got so many things prepared, I had been so excited for christmas. i have an appartment he is planning on stayin with my mother as he did before. he understands me, knows me, in everyway but with his family he is proud to be with me. he spends every christmas with them and easter and thanksgiving. he wont let me go. he wont ask if i can go. i could even take a greyhound and be there just one day, but he wont include me in his family. He's doin it again this year. marring him wont change that. i'm 33 and he's the only man i ever loved that loved me back. I have been faithful and loyal, his parents are fairweather friends. when he's doin bad they try for a while to talk him into doin better, and when that fails they abandon him. now he abandons me. but i havent abandoned him, i have suffered for him and with him, seen him fronm his pain to knowing his grace again. we are a good team, mostly. but because he doesnt want me arround his parrents they think i am crazy and forced his hand. i want to take the ring off on the 16th when he comes home right infront of his parrents and tell him all we are is girlfreind and boyfriend until you show me and your family that you love and put me first. i shouldnt do that. i think this has gone on year after year because i believed on day he would include me and show them hew accepts and loves me. i have a ring on my finger and i am unhappy. he is bieng selfish. i've had a year of suffering and pain and we arent married or with children. i havent had a happy engagment. marrying him wont make it better. I wish i could be in heaven right now and not have to hurt anymore, no one loves me like God does. on bad days anyways. He loves God i Love God but i might take off this ring. because i didnt want a fantasy. to be lead on. i wanted love. and he tells me if we had a car i'd be inclued we had a car i wasnt then either. his mom says if we lived up there it would be different. why would i want to move to be near them to get their acceptance? if they dont accept me and welcome me from where i am i have no buisness moving to thier town. they are a bit late wanting him now. if i leave he is homeless, disabled like me but since he cant get a job without my support he'll be back at the bottle then they'll abandon him again, and he'll have niether of us, just God. so i wish him and his parents would stop playing silly hurtful games with my life. There are ways to be fair about the holidays even with five hours apart. but they didnt even initiate a phone call to me since oct. i may day dream and think about wedding dresses, but i am not crazy and it was kyle's idea. its just he only talks about it with me and my family. thats why they think i invented this engagedment. and God help me this ring needs more than my help and nature to stay on my finger.

I have been married for almost 5 1/2 years now to the love of my life. We have been through some hard times since the day we decided to get married and we are still going through things. God has given us the strength to cope with everything on a daily basis. We have felt the strain on our marriage through all of it to the point of where I wanted out several times and I told my husband I did. I never did leave because of how much I love my husband. We were pretty much just going through the motions up until recently where it has gotten to be too much for both of us. I feel as though my husband no longer wants to be with me. He avoids me as much as possible. I try to reach out to him and there is no emotion. I now feel an emptiness inside me and all I can do is cry out to God and ask Him to restore our marriage. I know that we love each other and the way I feel is that God has brought us both through so much together why are we going to let the devil take our marriage now. Please help me pray that God saves our marriage and restores our home. Right now my home feels so cold and empty even though we are both here. We have a young son and had always wanted to have a daughter but now he tells me he has no desire to have more children with me. I need Gods strength through all of this as my hearts desire for a very long time has been to hold another child of our own.
