Phew... Where to begin...
The dating part started off rocky, then he moved to another country for a work opportunity and we did the long distance thing for two years. He dated other women in between and then finally came back and proposed to me. I was madly inlove and said yes. We got married a few months later. I am 26, he is 40 and has a daughter from a previous relationship.
So I left my job and packed up my life and moved with him to the other country, within 4 weeks of being away my father was murdered on our family farm back home and it hit me hard. I flew back and spent time at home (without him as he had work commitments) my father was my rock and stability in my life. He was a Christian that dedicated he's life to spreading Gods word through the Internet and via Christian Channels. He was always my go-to person for everything. But I believe there is a reason why God took him from us so early.
I've been married for 6 months so far and I'm afraid that I will lose my husband. He does not sleep in the same bed as what I do at night. He prefers to sleep on the couch. It affects me badly as I can't sleep and feel uneasy. He also chats to other women on a regular basis. He says they are close friends and I do believe him but I'm also unsure if there is more to it. I experience jealousy and anger and I try so hard not to show it. I really try and do everything for him as a wife should, I support him in his work, I make sure he has a clean home to come to, cooked meals everyday. I see to he's sexual needs as often as he requires.
There are communication problems, whenever I would like to talk about my concerns he either doesn't want to talk/busy or it ends in a fight.
I feel being a newly married couple and experiencing these problems so early on isn't healthy. I have prayed about this every day for the last few months be asked God to lead me on the right path and help me.
Right now I am unsure what to do. I have no one to talk to.
