LOL.. "a little dink"? Honey, I have several dings in my armor. 
It's called life and situations. You have several dings in your armor as well. WE ALL DO.

(Come on. This is where you tell me the answer isn't in the world. It's in God.
)I'm not good at prison ministry. I can give you the reasons why, but I didn't come up with all of them on my own. I was told them. All along I thought I was helping, but I wasn't. Doesn't mean I was a bad person. Meant I shouldn't do that. I don't see you as a bad person. I see you as a mighty woman of God. But one blind spot. This.
Good news. You're not the worse. So why am I bugging you? (Pun not intended.) Because I think you might listen. The others won't. They're agenda ridden. You want to help, but you're not. You're heart's in the right place though. I think your strength, (along with your at-most-times sense of humor), is people with disabilities and health problems. That's when you shine! That's when your passion, compassion, and strength in God goes sun-bright. (I'm also not that good at that either. I empathize for obvious reasons, but I tend to go into fix-it mode, which doesn't always happen.)

The Bible allows for divorce. It really seems like divorce is THE answer. BUT, Jesus also said that the law for divorce was because of the hardness of man's heart. Whose heart? The husband's heart, the wife's heart, both their hearts? Isn't that a case by case thing? And bigger question, what if God keeps a spouse's heart soft even when being cheated on? He really does that sometimes. God softens our hearts in unusual ways.
That's why I don't usually tell people to walk. (I have. I have when I believe there is physical abuse or there might be polygamy -- the spouse might very well be married to someone else at the same time.) My heart goes with leave the cheater. It really does, but that's God and the person asking's call, not ours.
God answers this question for anyone asking him and willing to seek his answer. This isn't a matter of us telling what to do. It's a matter of God telling what to do. It's a matter of trusting God, not anyone else.
We should be promoting that, not promoting our hearts.

People are seeking Bible based advice though.Otherwise all our answers here would be "Go ask God" I advised her to pray,to seek council,go to her pastor. I think thats the best advice that can be given in this situation.Also for her healths sake she should abstain.God can soften his heart,if he is open to that.He may have to lose her to realize how much she means to him.
