Annulment, a little confused

[1ke]

she’s scared to face the outcome that could be a no from the tribunal.

She needs to be prepared for it.

I was simply seking a tidbit of hope that would encourage her to giddy up and be serious about her faith.

What good would it do to give false hope?

She can hope in the knowledge that if he is unbaptized, he may have two avenues: decree of nullity or dissolution of th bond.

So, I’m satisfied with the advice I sought and found here and my fears are confirmed that this is no cut and dried case.

No case is a “cut and dried” case. However, what you have not received here is any indication that he cannot petition for nullity or pursue dissolution of the bond. So, one should not be discouraged by the advice that she consult her pastor.

Any advice on how to help her deal with this on a personal level? Any tips on how to encourage her to make the right choice here no matter what?

Suggest that they take things one step at a time.

Also, suggest the book Annulment: The Wedding That Was by Michael Smith Foster.
