You feel that it's right for your husband to have a girlfriend? No, that's not right at all. Being submissive does not entail becoming a door mat for your husband to wipe his feet on. Regardless, glad to have you onboard. Welcome to CC.

You should be submissive to your husband. He should love you as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for her.

There shouldn't be any room for him to have a girlfriend, or for you to have a boyfriend, for that matter.

Don't worry about typo's. A lot of posts have typo's, sometimes amusing ones. Just relax and be yourself. If your husband has a girlfriend he is being unfaithful to you and is committing adultery. You might consider getting out of that horrible situation if this is what is happening to you. A man that loves his wife does not even think about cheating on his wife let alone actually do it. This has nothing at all about being submissive. Regarding being submissive, the bible also says that husband's should love their wives. You did not say your ages or how long you have been married but my counsel to you under these horrific circumstances to consider a divorce. Your husband is a leech and you deserve better than being his doormat to wipe his feet on.

He is also supposed to submit to you, and be faithful. That is Scriptural.

While you won't likely find approval amongst Christians, there are other prominent religions that allow this.

Mankind is living in a fallen state because of choices MAN made, not because God wants us to be that way. He wants us to choose Him and His ways. He is faithful. Saying it is natural for a man to want sexual relationships with multiple women is NOT an argument you should be making. The natural man is hostile to God, and does not accept the things of God.

What other prominent religions allow are irrelevant because there is only one God and the plan of salvation is clear for those that want to spend eternity in His presence. Your counsel on this matter is bogus and potentially harmful.

Pushing people towards other religions is a sure way to get banned.
