I am struggling in my marriage.
If someone really needs details, I guess I can provide them. But I do not want to get into a blaming thing. I will say that my wife is dealing with a lot of problems, and has been for quite a while, and is quite often very mean, angry, and verbally abusive. She is a believer, and this is her sin issue, and I have my own, so I understand that well.
She left me once, for a relatively short period, based upon advice she got from another woman in Bible Study (that woman is no longer associated with our Bible study). This was due to my wifes perceptions that our marriage (a very young marriage at that time) was not "right". This was NOT due to infidelity, alcohol, etc. More about financial issues. In that period, she was for the first time very angry and impossible to really talk with. Since that time, in various episodes, that has returned again.
I do not want divorce, or to leave her, or her to leave me. I don't want another woman, or anything like that. We have a beautiful daughter (my step daughter) who is a budding Christian and truly a blessing. I sometimes feel, though, that she gets used as a pawn by my wife. As an ally, or a way to show separation from me, by attaching to her and ignoring me.
Please pray. I am also doing so.
Thank you.
