My boyfriend and i really love each other. He wants to marry me as soon as his divorce is over. We talked about it. Unfortunately, he came from a failed marriage and he’s working on it right now. I accepted him no matter what happened to him in the past because he told me everything. I didn’t wanna settle with him unless he’s over with his past. That’s why I’m trying my best to help him. Please help us get through this so we can start a new happy life together. I know everyone deserve a second chance and to be happy and that’s why I’m doing this with my boyfriend. Thank you all in advanced. Amen.
 
A Prayer for the Virtue of Obedience

Jesus, Almighty King of kings, You Who obeyed Your Father to the end, teach me the meaning of obedience. My soul burns to comply to Your will, striving to charm Your Divinity. While my worldly nature seeks one way, my spiritual nature seeks another. Bless me with the strength to obey, That my soul may subdue both natures, Blending them as a fair aromatic bloom. I always seek favor in Your eyes, to obey You always until my last breath!

Jesus, I trust in You!

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Do you mean he is working on his marriage or working at destroying his marriage?

Note:* Marriage is for life, once we marry someone, we become one with them, and what God has joined together, none should separate, thus there is no such thing as divorce, the only way you can marry this man is if the Church finds that his current marriage was not a ‘valid’ marriage, in which instance, if there was no marriage than there was no divorce and thus he is free to marry. Any woman who marries a divorced man commits adultery.*

Lets hypothetically assume you do marry this man and lets imagine latter down the track in your marriage, he becomes infatuated with another woman and now wants to divorce you in order to marry her, and suppose this new woman comes on here and says exactly what you have said, what advice do you think we should give her?

Remember in the Ten Commandments, number 9 is** “You Shall Not Desire Your Neighbors Wife/Husband”**
The Gospel of Matthew:
Matthew 5:31-32

Concerning Divorce

31 “It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32 But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Matthew 19:1-9

Teaching about Divorce

19 Now when Jesus had finished these sayings, he went away from Galilee and entered the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; 2 and large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

3 And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful to divorce one’s wife for any cause?” 4 He answered, “Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder.” 7 They said to him, “Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?” 8 He said to them, “For your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. 9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another, commits adultery.”

CA: Did Jesus Allow Divorce?

I would also like to end by saying that Our Lord Jesus Christ is full of love and mercy and is always waiting to forgive the repentant sinner, but remember that if this man is validly married that he is off limits, and should his wife cry to God over the loss of her husband, He will listen to her.

I will pray for you.

God Bless

I agree with this post^^^
I think we should be praying for this man to be reconciled to his wife instead of praying for him to marry the “other” woman. How would you feel if years later another woman was asking people to pray for your husband to leave you so that she may marry him? Why are you dating a married man when there are plenty of single men? A lot of women think that they are “different” and since they were preferred over the wife, they assume it could never happen to them.

I will be praying for this man and his wife tonight. Sorry.
 
Josh.& Evarnia Made a good point,
I hope you look at the big picture,and not just the roses in the corner
 
Dear friend, Raven, you have come to a Catholic prayer board for a reason. You identify yourself as Catholic. So I’m guessing you’re aware of the Church’s teaching on divorce. The other posters have articulated the teaching quite well. My point is, you can find joy in listening to the will of the Holy Spirit. Find Jesus. Listen to Him. He loves you, and he will not turn you away. Go to a priest and confess your sins. Receive absolution.

Your soul is priceless, my friend. You are precious to God. Don’t wallow in this mire when your life means so much more.

I will pray for you.

I got all your point guys, but I didn’t explain myself clearly. My boyfriend tried to reconcile so many times with his wife but the wife kept cheating on him over and over and his friends and i proved it right that’s why I’m saying all of this. I also tried to help them get back together but the wife even said to me that that’s impossible for them to get back together because of what happened. They got married when they were only 18 and the wife admitted that the reason they got married because she got pregnant. They tried to work it out for years but nothing happened. The relationship were already on and off even before I came to their lives. The wife is been an on & off relationship with someone else even before we started dating. I understand also that marriage is lifetime and of course i don’t want this to happen to me. I meant annulment and not divorce. Thank you for all your opinion.
 
Thank you for clearing that up, I wish you all the best for your future

I would just like to recommend speaking to your priest about this situation asap, so as to be careful not to be involved with this relationship any further until you know for sure your not seeking or pursing a relationship with a validly married man.

Hi Raven,

Thanks for clarifying the situation. I just would like to say that you both probably need to speak to a priest. That would be a great first step. Also, it might be wise to bring your relationship down a few notches while he is married. There’s nothing holy or even romantic about being engaged while the other person is still married. Dating or courting while one is still vowed (regardless of infidelity) to another is still an offense against God. Whether the wife sees it as such doesn’t matter. Sure, she may have cheated, but that doesn’t give her husband a free pass to do the same, nor does it give you permission to pursue a married man. In God’s eyes, they both are commiting adultery. It’s like the old childhood fight, " Well he/she hit me first!!!", so therefore the child justifies striking the other child. Would God give her husband permission for you to see him, just because his wife cheated on him? I think an annulment should happen before a new relationship is started.
 
Dear Raven, I pray that you remember your infinite value to Christ, who suffered and died for all of us. I pray that your situation works out according to the will of God. Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.​
 
I will pray for your soul.

Our Father,
Who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
