I believe I was a victim of emotional abuse. I'm not saying he isn't a good man but he just wasn't good for me. I never felt like I could do the right thing. He would say things like your opinion is wrong, You did alright but ......, that was good but...... Whatever I did was never good enough. I got so angry and even got to the point where I couldn't look anyone in the eye. I didn't even realize this until my pastor pointed it out. The longer I was away from him the more self confidence I got back.
My question is this. Even though someone goes to church on Sundays only and as far as I know never actually prays otherwise and claims to have read the bible does that make him a believer?
He tells me the bible says "you can never divorce me". I have strugggled with this for 4 years. I don't know what to do. I have put of divorcing him because of my faith. My family and friends all want me to settle this. I have forgiven him and try to be cordial calling him and asking him how things are. I have tried to apologize to him for my part. Of course he always says well you left, it is your fault and so on. I pray about this constantly. I have tried to change my life and grow closer to God but I still struggle with this. The closer I grow to God the more I seem to struggle.
