Strange Prayer Request

This week I have met my ex husband's current wife (she sought me out). Hearing her story took me back to when I was married to him (10 years ago). He is a Christian but there is no love or compassion (more Old Testament judgement) he also has sexual issues (sexless marriage just like ours). Part of me feels wrong to have shared honestly with her, but another part of me feels relieved to know that it wasn't all me.

They have been in counseling for 2 years with no progress. Please pray that God will use this for the good of their marriage (they have 2 children). He needs to address his issues, but just blames the one he is with. She is truly a beautiful person and he is not evil...just needs to see that he has issues and deal with that.

Obviously this has caused stress in my marriage and brought up a lot of past pain for both me and my daughter so we could use some prayers too.

Thank you...
Susan

Well...can you pray for that anyway?

Saying blessings and prayers. Looks like wherever he goes, there he is...hoping every thing gets better for everyone.

You all are in my prayers.

Sending prayers and good vibes your way.

I think it was good for you to talk to her. That way both of you see that it wasn't only you faults. People like that have a way of undermining other's self confidence. You probably helped her understand that she is not doing everything wrong. Bless you, and of course I'll pray for sorting out the sequlae. HUGGS

My prayers are with you and your family, as well as with your ex-husband and his family. I also think it was good that you talked openly and honestly with his new wife. I'm sure you both have a better understanding of each other now and you both know that you are not alone in your struggles. Also remember that you are never really alone. God is always with you, guiding , supporting , and loving you and your family.

Thank you Lonegael. I think it was good for both of us as she gave me closure that I never had (I left thinking it was all me and I was just a bad wife and a bad Christian and that has affected my relationship with God). I gave her confidence that she is not a bad wife, mother or Christian and encouraged her to try to get him to face his issues. I do pray that this will work for the good.....for him, for her, for their children.

And so we carry each other. Well done, Susan. HUGGS

My prayers are with you and your family.

Thank you for your prayers. He admitted that he has sexual and other issues and has agreed to keep up the couples counseling but also to see a therpist to deal with his issues. She moved back in and hopefully this strange encounter will work for the good.

Offten some will put their problems on some else. You experienced some one who got problems that has nothing to do with you persoanly. Let him go, get on with you life. Pray if you want, for his present Wife. However, your in Touch with the fact that troubles you had had more to do with his problems rathan than yours. Go with that realization and dont get to depressed over his new wifes problems. She will soon learn what you learned.

I think this was very nice of you and good for you to talk with her. He should know if he's having problems with her too, then it must be him. Does he feel ashamed to have sex? Maybe he has prostate problems?? Anyway I think it nice to be able to talk objectively with her. I will pray for you and for your ex and his wife, that they will find a way to solve their problems.

((((SUSAN 888))))) we are glad that you had closur on the past and we send our prayers to the one that is with him now. You did a brave thing and we hope that now you can heal more and gain stringht in you present marrigae as well. Good fortunes to you and your family.

I am glad to see that something good came out of the meeting with her, that you were not the only one and that hopefully she can get him the help he needs.
