I am sitting here and wondering why we get married. Alot of people don't even take these vows seriously. I mean what ever happened to "for richer or poorer,in sickness and in health til death do us part." I believe in these vows because it is the truth. Why do spouses abandon the other when they have taken this vow. You are supposed to marry your best friend. But what do you do when your friend leaves you because they can't stand you. Life is not easy. Sometimes you need to go through the rough times to get to the good ones later. I think my husband is a coward and a boy. He has abandoned his family so he can have his own way and have fun. He only wants to be a father when it suits him. He lies and so does his girlfriend. He needs to grow up and be a man. His family needs him more then some 26 year old supposed christian. She doesn't even care that he and she have torn a family apart. I wish we had more spouses that took their vows serious. My mother has been through hell with my dad and she stayed with him. He was an alcoholic for several years but she stayed. I give my hat off to her. That is what you call unconditional love that we should all have. They are still together after all these years. Anyone deciding to tear their families apart need to think about the consequences before they leave. My husband and I had a lot of rough times but I feel that that does not give him the right to betray his vows. Even if no one else cares I do. Even the church is allowing him the right to betray his vows. I am upset that in this day and age that some churchs look the other way.

PrettyWoman,
You said in a past comment that three of your husband's children were with another wife. What happened to his first wife? If he left her and their children for you then this is his pattern. He will leave the girlfriend one day as well. He and the "girlfriend" need to get saved and stop dragging the name of Jesus thru the mud confessing to be Christians. Goodluck, I am praying for your situation. Focus on your relationship with God and your children. God will take care of the rest.

Well, I am sure I have discussed this all before...but which is better? To vow and stay no matter what--even if it's an ugly marriage situation? Ball and chain, and all that jazz?
OR take vows but not uphold them?
OR don't take vows/make promises and simply see where it all goes?
OR don't get married at all and remain simply partners, mates, a union--just not one "signed in blood"?
You tell me. I am concerned and lost myself.
I dont think your mother is exactly a role model for sticking that out if it is not love or making her happy. And, you make/made an unhappy choice as well?

Caring advise my husband was divorced when we met. I remember one time his ex told me she left him and divorced him because he lies. I also agree that they need to come clean but unfortunately he doesn't agree. I am just trying to go day to day and focus my life on my children. As far as for brainstormer I love him and was following my heart. I don't know what is going to happen. I am trying to leave that up to God.

I believe a lot of people throw the Christian term around. If his girlfriend were truly a believer she would not go out with a married man, it would be against her beliefs. When men fall for someone they are blinded by that for a long time. If you are meant to be together his eyes will open and he will see what he needs to do. Keep busy and enjoy your children.
