I was married in 1995, to another Catholic, and when I was pregnant with our son in 1997, my husband told me he loved someone else, and wanted a divorce.
I was in shock, as I had no signs of this happening, only in hindsight can I see now that those “calls from the boss” were from his girlfriend.
He had been seeing her for approximately 6 months prior to him telling me, so before our son was concieved.
I am now living with my son, and my parents, and my son sees his father every fortnight.
Through constant prayer and intercession, I have been able to forgive my ex-husband, and move on in my life.
I have decided to apply to my archdiocese for a nullification of my marriage, as I have only recently realised how important the Sacraments are to us as Catholics.
Could you all give me your thoughts on how I should word my thoughts on the reason for my wanting an annullment?
I have my interview on Wednesday with the Tribunal.
I have heard not all marraiges become null.
My priest told me that the Tribunal focus on what my ex-husband was like prior to the “vows”, not how he acted afterwards when we were married.
I know in my heart he never took the Sacrament of Marriage to mean as much as it did to me.
But how can I prove that ?? How can I tell the Tribunal how well I know my ex-husband and how he was thinking?
Any views on this are most appreciated
