New here and struggling

I'm new here and I'm hurting really bad. I was dating a man I went to school with for three yrs we fell in love and the last two remaining yrs the emotional abuse became hard to deal with. Last Sunday, we ended our relationship and finalized he is also the congregational president and on many boards together. However I took confession and absolution three wks ago. We also found out I was pregant and lost the baby at 3 mts due to etoptopic pregancy. My biggest problem is dealing with seeing him at church and I can't seem to find the courage to go and move fwd. should I stay at my church or move on to another one. I need help.

Hi FlMom71,

Welcome! Glad you came here to this body of believers from across the globe. I prayed for the situations that you mentioned above. I also want to share Romans 8:28 with you in hopes that it will be comforting. Romans 8:28, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

God Bless and I hope all will be well in the end,

~Will

Move on to another church. And try to behave yourself -- Don't have sex before marriage -- you know that's wrong, don't you? Get on the straight and narrow -- follow Christ. I'm sorry you're hurting, but there are consequences to our actions.

The great news in all this is that Christ forgives! Return to your first Love (Christ), forsake this world (be in it and not of it), follow the tenants of the faith.

God bless you as you begin your new life.

FIMom71, welcome to the cc!

God bless

I will pray for Christ to guide you!

sorry I can't offer advice besides listen to God through The Holy Spirit

Love you,

If you ever need to vent, I may not be able to give you advice but I can listen. You may also try another forum on the site, there may be others who can offer their input there too.

Ty for the replies. Well the situation is not improving only getting worse. I found out through him he wasn't happy to go through confession and absolution because he does it everyday. I'm still hurting which has transformed into anger as of yesterday. I was advised to write him a letter telling him where I was with everything etc. He of course read it and followed by a simple reply which for him it was smooth civil. I've been avoiding meetings and service all week still to hard. He nit picked things in the email then texted me about it then I started to explain how hard it was and then he called once missed his call then he called me again during this conservation he kept throwing it in my face that he wasn't coming back and saying this that and then the other. I mentioned I was struggling with seeing him at church and he said he'd understood if I left but wouldn't be happy if I did... I thanked him for the" nice" talk... He was trying to be nice... Well something must have set him off. Telling me this how was gonna be at church etc and then he threw in he didn't care if I left or not and made assumptations I finally got angry. I'm angry at him and now I want to let him have it. The same pattern as we were together. Why did he go there? I'm hurt and angry, is he trying to make me crazy.
