Thank you, sweetmorningdew, what's painful is I believe The Lord will restore but there is no indication of this. We have a large family, 7 children, we're both 34, yes we started young but we've known each other since we were 7 years old. There is so much value in our marriage and family that she is not willing acknowledge.

Hey man. I have been married going on 25 years. I'll share something with you. I almost left my wife last year. I was going thru some trials myself. She stuck by me and helped me. I had no remorse for how my decision was going to affect her. So maybe she is going thru trials herself. Hopefully, time will heal all wounds
Eric, Take heart. Some friends of mine separated after about 12 years or more marriage. She left him. He was heartbroken but believed God for the healing and the strength to do what was right. One day he went to a lawyer who said, "You're going to pay through the nose for this. SHe's not coming back." To which my friend pulled out a small Gideon bible and he stood strong saying, "This book says differently". Two weeks later, after having a revelation from God that she was coming back, he and the children heard a knock at the door. There she was. It took time to heal. They just celebrated 33 years of marriage this year. Decide to stand on the authority you have and the promises of God, if that's what you want, I believe she'll return. Praying for you all. -student
Amazing words of encouragement, thank you brother and sisters. I would like to mention how I've taken this opportunity to allow Jesus to work in me with the things I've held in my heart since childhood. Shortly after my wife left I felt I needed help to save our marriage with my primary focus on my marriage, after a couple of sessions I realized I needed Jesus to work deeper within me, today was my 6th session, The Lord blessed me with a sister in Christ to counsel me in many different areas that I thought I could handle with my own strength throughout my life. I've never sought support from anyone to help me deal with issues I've battled. At first I felt awkward reaching out here, I still have moments where I feel I am in despair but today we had a breakthrough with an issue I'll soon be better prepared to share. Student, Prov910, LostRider, Tourist, thank you for your warm replies, I can't express enough how helpful and encouraging it is to read what you all have shared. Thank you!

Welcome here you can discuss with bible smart people and possibly make new friends,hope you like it here!
Also yes any betrayal is tough I can imagine in a relationship that feeling is amplified,just try not to dwell on this betrayal and keep moving forward alongside God,for there are more blessings in your future to come so think of it as a bad memory and try to move past it.

Believe me, I understand how you feel.
Betrayal is the hardest thing to get over.
Your trust is broken along with your heart.
You feel like everyone is untrustworthy and that at some time they too will break your heart.
I've been there and still fight the loneliness and anger.
God is here.
He will never leave you nor forsake you.
Read some of His promises.
I hope this helps.
Ask God to help you learn to trust again.

I’m so sorry to hear that, Eric. This is a hard thing to go through after 13 years of togetherness. I just said a prayer for you and your wife, asking God to bring healing and hope to your marriage. May He be the strength of your heart and your refuge. I know your situation isn’t easy right now, but stay strong. Sending prayers your way!
