I got married on August 30, 2003 to a wonderful man. About three weeks before we got married he had started having second thoughts about marrying me...after a long talk I found out it was because of unresolved feelings for another woman. After many hours of talking and praying we decided to get married.
I thought that our problem was done with and that he had made his decision, especially since we got married.
On last Friday the truth starting to surface, he had been talking with her, going to her house, kissing her.
My heart is broken. I trust the Lord and I know that my husband loves me but it is so hard right now. I don't want a divorce but I feel lost.
Please pray!

Hi Barbwire15, you might try posting in a different forum with more traffic.
That is very unfortunate about your situation. Definitely get help ASAP one way or another such as counseling. Reading up on these concepts will definitely help, but he needs help at this time.

Thank you for your words of encouragement. As we move forward this experience is drawing us closer together. I do not make light of my husband's actions or his judgement however I recognize that we fight against a great enemy. I have my own past experiences, my own sin even to draw on and I believe God can use everything. The Lord is showing how to put His instruction into action, He is teaching me about forgiveness and His matchless mercy.
I made a decision to fight for my marriage to give it to the Lord and I do believe He will heal us both.
Again thank you for your encouraging words.

I am sorry about your situation. He should never have married you until he cleared his feelings. My gut feeling about this is that he'd have had second thoughts even if he'd married the other woman.
Have you tried couple's counselling?
