Post a prayer request and pray for others.
I am experiencing another betrayal by my husband. Uncovered more lies and deceitful behavior which has been a pattern for the entire marriage of nearly 13 years.
I have been devastated over and over by the impact of dishonesty. The lies have chipped away at the trust that a marriage requires. I was diagnosed with PTSD as a result.
I cannot fully trust what I am being told. He has lied to everyone in his life (his words), including all his therapists, our marriage couples therapist, accountability partners from Celebrate Recovery, other men’s Christian groups.
Repentance is not there, he continues to act with entitlement.
I need space to heal, to think clearly, and to determine whether this marriage will continue. I do not feel safe trying to heal while we are still living under the same roof and while the dishonesty continues to be a recurring pattern.
His refusal to move out has made this even harder - he made these selfish decisions that have deeply impacted me. I have been traumatized by his decisions to betray, yet my request for space is being ignored. I need the distance in order to gain clarity about what is best for me and for my future.
I need him to acknowledge the reality of what has happened without minimizing it. I need him to understand the true severity of his actions and do the work that is needed to breakaway from this sin.
I need wisdom from God - knowing what to do next.
