Many similarities in my marriage of 36 years. Only thing is that my husband is a missionary. Our marriage is at the point where I need to do Plan B, but I am not able to work in the country I live in. It would also mean the immediate dismissal from missionary service, eliminating his job permanently and all income.
We went for counselling 15 years ago. My husband never followed through with his responsibilities. One was to do the MB needs survey. He refused.
I'm certain that if I was in the USA, and could get a job that would allow me to move out, this would have already happened.
I love my husband, but like Dr.Harley said 80% of divorces come from neglect. My husband is good at ministering to everyone BUT me.
Any advice?
Married 36 years.
6 grown children

Hi DesperateMission, I would start up a new thread on this forum so posters can see your post and give you feedback. Posters won't see you buried down at the bottom of this thread. Welcome to Marriage Builders!
