We really don't need more detail.
What can you do to save your marriage? Seek counseling from a qualified Christian therapist, take the idea of divorce off the table. Work it out. It's simple, but for SURE not easy. I hope that your husband wants to save your marriage too, but talk to him, with him, let him know of your heart to save your marriage and continue to listen and work through your difficulty.
The details aren't important, in that, marriage is tough. But keep working it out. Pray. A lot. Ask people to pray for you/with you. They don't need details either, keep those between the two of you... but have them praying that God be/continue to be the Lord of your relationship. Seek him together with your husband for your marriage.

Yes,
I can say to all
that I'm only seventeen, but
I have the choice too to comment on it!
All I want to say is:
Life on Earth is really not evident,
and isn't simple at all...
I cannot be in yourself,
don't worry about that,
I'll tell finally, never stop praying,
and listening Worship & Praise to the Healer!

Welcome, sister!
My advise is simple: don´t think about divorce! Think about love, forgiveness and most of all, serve the Lord with your husband! And don´t forget: after Him, the most important thing for you should be your spouse! Pray, pray and pray! Talk to your husband! Pray with your husband! Seek counselling if needed!
But don´t think about divorce!!!
I´ll pray for your marriage!

after 10 years of marriage My wife had an affair. This happened 5yrs ago. I fought very hard to save my marriage for 3yrs. I did the love dare book twice, loved her unconditionally through it all. Not showing me any signs of wanting to fix things we have been separated for 2yrs. At this point we have 15yrs invested and are a month away from divorce. Now she wants to fix things and I have moved on emotionally. Scared to death she will do it again. I don't want to stop the court date but am feeling sorry for her and guilty for wanting this over so I can move on. Please help me make the right decision. thank you

I notice you are 42. but "married" only 10 years. Have you ever studied the word of God to determine what GOD thinks about your marriage... was it legitimate in his eyes... or merely by the traditions of men? Do not listen to "counsel" of others... even MINE... GO to the word of GOD and seek HIM, thru his WORD. It is by the WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD you will find true peace and walk in righteousness regarding the matter.

I have been married 15yrs and trust me when I say I have done this. For the longest time I prayed for my marriage. After several years of sleeping on my couch and knowing my wife was talking to people in my bedroom I changed my tune. Started praying for us to find peace in hope that things would change. I have forgiven her several times with the same ending. To this day she justifies it with I worked to much.
And I suppose she was happy to spend the money you were paid for working?
This woman wants her cake and eat it too! God hates divorce, but he also hates adultery and betrayal. You have Biblical grounds to divorce.
I will ask you a personal question, though. Sometimes hypersexuality can be one of the symptoms of bipolar disorder. I would ask that you google the symptoms, and see if she has more of them. If so, she may need psychiatric help, and may not be responsible for her actions. That is not a cop out, it is the biochemical truth.
If she is not willing to get medical help, then I would continue with the divorce. But is she is willing, and will stay on her meds (sometimes a big issue with the mentally ill, because of the side effects) then I would reconsider the divorce.
I am very sorry you have had to go through this, and I will be praying God comforts you and gives you peace.

Why would you have guilt moving on? You have done everything in your power to make it work and her wanting to fix things NOW is her fear of what she will do with out you and your support as well as the realization that you are moving on. It is a form of control! You have struggled, you are moving on and should knowing you did everything you could do. Keep strong, keep your faith and good luck!
I manage a homeless shelter..most of the residents here for the last two years are listed as being 'BIPOLAR". This simply means that a label has to be placed on their actions that would best be applied as to getting medications at a reduction. Anytime someone changes their mind, or mood swings occur on a full moon, or a sudden change of habit, it is instantly judged as being 'bipolar'. Their case worker is contacted and PRESTO!!!!! Medications are given to alter this label. I am also an old school CHRISTIAN and I see this labeling 'bipolar' not only as a pharmacutical gimic, but I also see it as demonically inspired. I'm not saying that these people are possessed, but I am saying that old satan is having a hayday with emotions and actions with those who simply are NOT secure in their spiritual walk. I never see a holy spirit filled CHRISTIAN and bipolar issues housed in the same brain. Either the Holy SPIRIT is utilized, or the bipolar takes over...the two can't rule on the same throne at the same time. I would never advise anyone to 'look into being bipolar"....for it will change their life forever. I would advise to "seek ye first the kingdom of GOD and then all these things will be added unto you." What are those 'things"? Why, they could be deliverances, healings, prayer requests and so much more!
