How did you ever stop missing this other person and how do you love your husband again? I never did love him as much as this other man. My husband was much too cold for me. I thought he would warm up but he never did until I met someone else that is more lovable than anyone that I have ever met. How do I switch? Is it too late? Miracles never cease & that is what it would take!

No honey, he was always frozen! There is way too much to this story than I can get into here. Now I am a prisoner is all.
I just don't love him. He does not want sex he just wants me with him every second.

Every Sunday that I go to Church is helping me & getting into God's word is REALLY helping me. Gradually as I keep drawing closer to the Lord, my husband is letting up a little bit not wanting me to be with him every second. I am use to being alone a lot and the smothering has been hard on me. It is harder because once the physical side of your marriage starts failing, it is much harder to bond again. It has been so long that I have ever desired him that way, for one thing he kept putting me down physically, calling me an old woman-WHEN I LOOK AT LEAST 15 yrs younger than he does and very attractive! & many other snide remarks but I learned it was b/c he was so insecure about himself. He comes off like he is so confident, no. 1 man around town blah blah-but it was all a facade.
He is going to Church w/me, praying w/me, reading the word of God, being good to me & my children in so many kind ways. He tore up the prenuptial, bought me a new car-paid cash for it. God is faithful!

I still love the other man very very much and I always will. I am trusting God to take care of him and to draw him to see his need for Jesus Christ. He has been severely blinded by satan but I know that even though it was wrong for me to become involved with him that somehow God will use the seed of faith and my desire to be right with God as a witness to him. He knows how deeply I love him. I believe that as much is possible for an unbeliever to love someone, he loves me very deeply as well. I know and believe with ALL OF MY HEART that I will see this special person in heaven, very possibly sooner but if I do, it will be after my husband is deceased. Although I am NOT waiting and wanting that to happen. I want God's perfect will above everything, there is no other way to have peace on this earth. Our desires will always get in the way of true peace. When we delight ourselves in the Lord, he will give us the desires of our heart. I plan on remembering that.

It is now much easier to read the word now that I am not in crisis as I have been in for so so many years. That is the key to overcome, to abide in God's word until it is planted in your heart, it becomes you! John 17 is so rich, I am loving to read all of God's word, it is life, it is peace, it is joy, IT MAKES ME HAPPY TO BE IN GOD, HE IS IN ME, I AM IN HIM-JESUS IS GOD IN THE FLESH!!! WHEN WE LOVE HIM AND REALIZE HOW MUCH HE LOVES US, IT IS SO GOOD TO DO THINGS GOD'S WAY! IT IS THE TRUTH! JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, THE LIFE AND NO ONE CAN COME TO THE FATHER EXCEPT BY HIM!!! When we do things God's way, EVERYONE BENEFITS!!! EVERYTHING WORKS OUT FOR THE BEST!!!!! I get EXCITED reading God's word. God has delivered me by His Grace to be able to concentrate like I did when I first received the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues! It is true, it works, the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost. I have suffered for years and years, most of my life..

I had a very bad first marriage, my husband was an alcoholic but at least he made peace with God before he died. I have had to struggle very much financially & much every way while raising my 3 children but God has set my paths straight. I have peace to sit down & study God's word again. I have a man that God has given me to help me spiritually instead of tearing me down FINALLY! I have a partner in Christ. I have someone that can get excited w/me about souls being saved! He is excited w/me when we pray for someone's marriage to be turned around and God hears our prayers & answers! As long as God is our first love, we can love & appreciate anyone that loves him too! We are COMPLETE in HIM! You can ask God to give you this same revelation and he can open your eyes too! Thank You Jesus FOR YOUR PEACE & JOY that comes from your word & in Your TRUTH! The truth will set you free IF YOU WILL DO THE TRUTH!!! HALLELUJAH!

I am still looking for other overcomers though. Are there any out there? Are there any out there that would like to overcome this detriment to their marriage? I would like to converse with you in either case. Because we need each other, it says in God's word that iron sharpens iron, we need all the help that we can get.
