Since my husband and I just moved to a new state I don’t know anyone that well here. Please pray that we both make good godly friends and meet older Christian mentors to spend time with and grow with here. I’m wanting to help people vocationally and I really need to be around the right...

Thank you everyone for your words of encouragement and prayer. I really need this now in this season of my life where I’m seeking to expand and grow.

Please pray for me. My husband and I just moved across the country for me to go back to school in the fall. I feel led to help people and believe that is through counseling/ providing therapy to others and maybe down the road ministry so am going back to school for psychology. Please pray that...

6 years.

That’s a good way to approach it.

If this is the root of the problem it sure would explain a lot.

That makes sense to treat inappropriate content addiction like alcoholism. I’ve thought about asking in the past if he’s looking at it but was afraid that if I did that he would just interpret it as me not trusting him or expecting the worst. Or even if he was the one doing the wrong thing, me bringing it up...

Yes that’s the only way it’s happened in the last few years. But it never just happens when I do that. He says not tonight let’s plan for such and such time. I’m no longer doing this though is my whole point. I deserve so much better than that. And then he will usually follow through with...

He’s been to see a general practitioner this year for his hypothyroidism and also this year went to see a sleep specialist. But he wouldn’t schedule the appointments himself so I did. He got a new cpap mask and keeps saying he’s going to try it but doesn’t. I’ve cleaned it for him and everything...

Yes well I typically don’t speak or respond hastily, I plan to mull it over for a while before saying anything. When I say this is my last ditch effort to talk this out with him I’m not saying divorce will happen if it doesn’t resolve things. I’m saying I’ll have to resign myself to this being...

Yes I think you make a lot of interesting possibly true points. What’s confusing is that he talks about how annoying and frustrating she can be but he still treats her well so I guess it’s like a love hate relationship. You may be right that he’s just more interested in me taking care of him...

but what about people you have lived with? Isn’t it usually harder to hide it at home that outside of the home?

Thanks, I saw this book at one point and thought about reading it. It might be helpful.

It was a stressful time. In some ways he may have felt comfortable in his hometown but overall he kept saying he wanted to get out of there and his family was driving him crazy. And yes he was continuing to look for another job back where I was living at the same time.

We considered that at one time but heart conditions run in his family and he was fine at his last checkup but I’ve heard those pills aren’t good for the heart. Anyone know if there’s truth to that?

I totally agree. I’ve wondered myself if she’s really a Christian. She says she is but I don’t see the fruits of the spirit there.... And yeah I think it’s pretty filthy that she would say something like that without proof or valid reason. And also it seems almost demonic to purposely try to...

I’m really not sure about that. I’ve wondered myself. I mostly thought it was his idea but after his mother said that thing about me and my “boyfriend” I wondered if she had something to do with it.

This is probably my last ditch effort to talk to him about these things. This is probably the last thing that I haven’t totally asked him about. I’m really feeling like I’m past the point of no return here. But I will try to look for a time to ask if he’s depressed, which I really don’t see that...

If he is he’s very good at hiding it. But I’ve seen him clearly frustrated and confused before and it’s really clear those times. In the last few years the only way I’ve gotten sex is on his terms when I’m not really going to enjoy it fully. And it’s usually late afternoon or evening which is...

EXACTLY. Yes he will typically follow through in that case. And no I’m pretty sure he’s not taking Ed medication. This is the another reason I wondered if he’s trying control? I’m not sure what to make of this.
