I will try to keep this concise. Wife and I married 8/11/07. About a year into the marriage I confessed having a serious problem with pornography that stemmed from childhood. Spent from November of 2008 until present counseling, reading books, joined a support group, stayed sober from porn, got accountability partners in place in every area of daily life,filters on computers, passwords that only my wife knew,no access to computers without supervision etc…… I feel I have done a very good job in removing that trash from my life and our marriage.

Looking for advice on broken marriage!

My divorce is final. I feel relieved that the battle is over and sick that this life I had is done. I loved my husband. What happened over the last seven years of our 19yr marriage baffles me.

Final today…..

I have been curious about something for a while. Does God see a marriage between two non believers? Also, does God see a marriage if the husband committs adultery?

What does God see?

I recently posted about how my husband has asked me for a divorce. I have been praying with all my heart for our family, and for his salvation. he is currently incarcerated and eligible for parole this coming January, though offenders with his type of conviction are almost never released the first time they are eligible for parole. I have 2 daughters who are not his children.

My husband wrote me this letter explaining his request for a divorce…

My apologies go out to you beforehand for this novel I am about to write. I contemplate writing to someone on a daily basis, and I am so overwhelmed to try and reach out to someone, to have hope, to have comfort, to have peace. I write many letters, but never have the courage to send them for fear of rejection, judgment, or a nonchalant response, all of which would possibly send me into a more downward spiral of depression and anxiety.

New marriage plagued by OCD and scrupulosity

As I was listening to the program on the radio today about gods words on divorce and remarriage. As they said we try to find ways to justify what we are thinking, feel, just seeking something to validate we are ok to divorce. I feel that I do this. That the major issues in a marriage are sin, selfishness, and forgiveness

I have been married to a wonderful woman for over seven years, we have three boys, two that I adopted and one of our own. Her first marriage was a bad one. We had a wonderful marriage until, according to her the last year or so. She moved out 2 weeks ago!! She thinks that it is in the best interest of the boys. She lets me get and keep our three year old as much as I want, I have had him since last Thursday. She had back surgery in Feb.,turns 40 in few months, our oldest is graduating higfh school this year, and she is working on her doctorate.

second time marriages

[Note: This is a continuation of our shift posts, one and two .] To begin, I want to send a thank you to those of you who have sent me emails and left comments in support of Simple Marriage and our goal of fundamentally changing the culture of marriage . Your support means a lot. Second, I want to let you in on my thinking about things as we’ve progressed the past week. The response from people has been good, but I’ve got some concern as to how good the response really is

I’m needing your help

I am reaching out here because I’m just not sure where else to turn. I can’t have these conversations with my friends anymore.. they are so “over” it. I can’t afford to see a counselor right now (WHY is counseling so expensive??), I am sort of new to an area and we haven’t found a church yet – but I am just in desperate need of some advice or guidance, something. I have been married for almost 12 years.

when is it time?

Guest post written by Mariana Ashley of online colleges . In the 1950s, social psychologist and philosopher Erich Fromm wrote a groundbreaking book, The Art of Loving: An Enquiry into the Nature of Love . This book presents a refreshingly non-Disney theory about this thing we call love. Unlike most self-help books, The Art of Loving does not presume to have any straightforward answers about your own relationships
