I just recently joined, and would like to talk with other women that are separated. The marriage ending wasnt what I wanted, it was his choice. One day we are having an average day and whoosh, the rug is pulled up under me , several things lead up to it, but all were repairable.

I too am recently separated. It was also his choice, has been making bad decisions for quite some time. The ultimate deal breaker for me was unfaithfulness. I'm not so sure things were repairable any more for us. We stared counseling a little over a year ago. He went for a while then decided it wasn't for him, we didn't need it.

Seems like we have formed a little club here. I have been separated several times from the same husband. I understand about things being repairable and having a partner that won't work with you. I can't seem to get him to go to counseling. Any mention of biblical principles sets him totally off. It's a shame because we could be a great family. There are three children involved. I've been praying for years and I'm just not sure anymore.

I'm sorry for your hurt. I know what you are dealing with. My husband just up and leaves anytime he wants to. It's usually over the simplest things. When he leaves he won't even contact his daughter. The last time he left us, we were faced with having to move out of our home. God provided a better place for us to live, gave me a fantastic deal on the rent too. I pay less now for a bigger apartment than i was for the smaller one. He even sent people to help me move. It's been very tight financially, however, God always provides for us-usually to the amazement of others.For a year or more my husband had no idea where we were. His family would not tell him because they despise his behavior. However his mother does not see the wrong in providing a home for him when he deserted his family. It's only recently that I finally got some child support from him.

I originally started this thread back in August, but its good that the glitch that this site had brought old threads to the top. If anyone needs to talk, or would like prayer, feel free to send me a msg. Its 6 months now, since the split, and life does get better, for me, it brought me much closer to God. I still have moments of hurt, or anger, but I joined a wonderful church, that has support groups for every issue imaginable, which has been a blessing. I will be praying for you all.
God Bless

Hello
I am sadly a recent member of this fraternity.
We set a ten year goal that was going to require a lot of work and faith to achieve, building a large investment property, then retiring on the proceeds by 40.
Over that time I became fixated on the project, inadvertently not being there for my wife at times of great need in her personal journey. She covered it by saying that she was ok with it because the project needed to be finished and she understood. I took this as an excuse to sink further into the job at hand.
Before we knew it, the distance had grown between us and we were arguing about all things great and small.
Neither of us were smart enough to run straight to the feet of God. I said a lot of hurtful things out of frustration and misunderstanding.
I had a near death experience a couple of years back, and I got nudged by this in the right spiritual direction.
The problem was that I could no longer connect with my wife. We went to counselling, but she had already closed her heart.
My fault. Hindsight and counsel have helped me understand this.
My problem is that I am seeking reconciliation, but my beautiful wife does not believe my intention to be true, despite the months of sincerity.
Any advice, as I will not walk away. I love m wife and my God too much for that.

I am thinking of this at this very moment. Our marriage suffered an infidelity with a close friend several years ago and I have been hanging on by my fingertips. I think it may be finally time to give up. My children are starting to be affected but I am so confused. Don't know what to do next.

Yes, I joined CC last night and have been separated for 7 weeks from a 21 year marriage. Would love to share experiences and a wonderful christian book I was given. "Broken Heart on Hold" during separation.

Hi, I have separated from my husband of nearly 3 years. It's a month since the separation and this came above when he emotionally cheated on me a year ago with his ex-girlfriend who is also married but having difficulties with her husband. I tried to forgive him but he would not stop contact with this lady and would give excuses why he has the lady's number on his phone. I am struggling to forgive and this is distancing me from God. I am filled with so much anger and feel used by him as he would let has start a family because according to him I always get angry at the slightest things. I agree but he is so rude and arrogant and we cant even have a decent communication without being at each others throat. I wanted to save my marriage but the thought of my husband not having an insight of the betrayal he caused to our marriage as led to me not having any love for him. My whole family, especially my dad dislikes him so much and has told me that if I sign his papers to become a british citizen, he will disown me as my husband is very disrepectful. I just want to do the Godly thing by signing his papers for him and moving on with my life but I dont want to lose my dad over him as he would rather defend his friends against me-so I question myself, why I should sign his papers. The truth is If i dont he will be deported back to Africa where I brought him from. Any Godly advice please.

Do you think he married you just so he could become a British citizen?

My wife just walked out on me after 12 years, she has some mental illness issues so I'm not sure if thats to blame, it's devastating,, I was a good husband to her, always there for her through some very difficult times with her illness, always stood by her side, She was my best friend not just my wife, I guess sometimes people just leave, we were both married before God and tried our best to live his ways in our marriage. Just try to stay strong in this, I'm also having a very difficult time not just giving up on everything, I'm an old fashioned person and I believe you marry someone for life, I wont even consider getting married again
