    a marriage needs work, but which one

    I agree with this. "Until death do us part". Your first husband is not dead therefore he is still your husband in Gods eyes.

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    For the Lord to heal all wounds requires repentance. My husband sees nothing wrong with inappropriate content, he believe it is perfectly normal and harmless, that my sole motivation is to deprive him of "the one thing that gives him pleasure". That makes me realise I am not important to him, our children are...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    The times he has come home to an empty house he must have felt like it was Christmas, all the computer time he desired; only getting off in a hurry, and forgetting to delete the history, as I came in the drive. He doesn't realise I know so used to lie about it, now I think he tells me the truth...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    I have my miracle. He is on his way home. I am surprised but pleased. Please pray for a great long weekend for us.

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    Funny story, Twice I planned to read it, the first time someone in this thread offered to send it to me but it never arrived and the second time I found it on an online auction site for $1 but the seller dissappeared and the book didn't arrive. I decided God didn't want me to read it at that...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    Thank you. I'm so sorry your marriage ended :( I just spoke to him, again I had to call him, he is late home again, only half an hour so far but he is at the wholesalers; buying, I'm assuming, alcohol. So I could really use any and all prayers for this evening. Bless you All.

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    I don't resent him at all (I don't think), I just feel desperately sad (that he is so unhappy) and lost; and I have no idea what to do. Why do you imagine he might feel disrespected and rejected? Curiously that is exactly how I feel. I would hate to do anything that makes him feel that way...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    And worse :( Last night he finally arrived home over 2hrs after he'd finished work. He kissed me but when I smelt the drink I pulled back and looked at him with that "why?? Doesn't it bother you to worry me???" look. I have told him many, many times it is scary enough for me to know that he is...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    Yes I'm still hoping and praying for that miracle but every time I think we have serious headway my husband acts in a way that makes it clear to me that I am dreaming, he doesn't truly love me or our children, it is a selfish love, all about him and what he wants and for us to be there and...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    Thanks for taking the time to post, I really appreciate it. *My advice, pray for your husband. Doing it and have been for so many years I've lost count. *Quit forcing him to read scripture. Never have, I may have asked him to or suggested it but the choice of whether to do it or not is and...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    And this could quite possibly be the answer also. He is very negative and is not a communicator. I don't even remember the last time we had a quiet, calm conversation. These days asking a question send him into the most horrendous rages that I am scared to even try to initiate any conversation...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    Someone else has suggested by PM he may be bi-polar and I'm seriously wondering if this could be it. I will talk to our doctor.

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    I don't understand what you mean? I want to walk away, I'm so over being hurt, but I can't. I believe that marriage is forever and despite everything I love my husband and I want to be with him for the rest of my life but I want him to be happy too and he obviously isn't. He has sworn to me...

    I had such high hopes for "Every Man's Battle"

    I wish someone could explain to me how his mind worked and how to cope with it. It's yet another one of those nights where everything I do is wrong and everything that has ever gone wrong is my fault :( Am I the only person who thinks having our life on constant video surveillance so we can...
