why is my wife on-line asking people about our marrage if she is so into church?

Answer 1

I don't think one necessarily has to do with the other. Going to church does not make you a Christian, so I would ensure she is. If indeed, she is, then it would be considered gossiping to bring her issues with you to someone else, so she would be wrong. The only way the Bible would say she was ok in what she was doing would be if she was online seeking how to be a better wife. If she is merely on line "telling" on you, then she should definately consider what the word says about gossip and let her know that the Bible even gives us a 4 phase approach for handling conflict (with our spouse or otherwise). Matthew 18:15-17 clearly spells it out:
"And if your brother sins, go and reprove him in private; if he listens to you, you have won your brother. But if he does not listen to you, take one or two more with you, so that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every fact may be confirmed. And if he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax-gatherer."

If these are not her steps in resolving conflict with you, then she should go to her church and seek guidance.

Answer 2

Ronald,
just because your wife is into church doesn't mean that she has any less worries about husbands, kids, social life etc. it just means that her faith (if its strong) will help her hold up better under the pressures of life.
we believe in a higher power and we pray but in the end we are still just human and we tend to question things.
here on answers you can ask an anonymous question and get lots of peoples input (some good--some not so good) but nothing is set in stone. she just now knows how others would handle the same situation or has handled it in the past.
in other words--she knows shes not alone.

Answer 3

First of all the correct spelling is MARRIAGE.And what does church have to do with asking a question and last but not least why are you asking a question right now.You are doing the same thing that you are complaining that your wife is doing.Sound's like you need counseling go to church..LOL

Answer 4

Maybe it's the safety of being anonymous. There are some things we are hesitant to share with people in our everyday lives because we are afraid of being judged or ridiculed or labelled. Hopefully, she's not discussing serious matters--that's something she should be discussing with YOU. But if it's silly things like "how do I tell my husband his armpits smell", then give her space to have her online chats and try not to feel too negatively about it. BTW, from my own experience, church-goers can be some pretty judgmental people.

Answer 5

Because people from church know her. This is anonymous, pretty much. She can ask questions here that she might otherwise feel embarrassed / bad about asking.

Answer 6

This is my suggestion to you and your wife, quit talking to everyone else on-line and actually sit down and talk with each other, because if there are problems in your marriage, you need to be talking with each other about it, to resolve those issues rather than with other people.

Answer 7

Why does Church have anything to do with it. Seems you both are asking questions here instead of talking to eachother.

Answer 8

That is a question you should ask her rather than ask strangers on line. And, church has nothing to do with it.

Answer 9

Many times people just want others opinions...to see if they may be out of order or to see how many other people agree with what he/she is saying. It don't mean she is going to take the advice, she just wants to hear it.

Answer 10

maybe she is unhappy and has no one unbaised to discuss things with. sometimes it is easier to talk about personal problems with strangers than with our friends! no wonder the world is full of shrinks.

just because you go to church that doesn't mean you don't struggle with your life.
