Prayers needed - divorce seems imminent

[CatholicMom1907]

Can someone please pray for me? My husband has stopped being a husband and has been having an affair and ignoring me and his daughter. We have tried counseling, retrouvaille, therapy, etc. Nothing is helping. If anything, he is using it as an excuse to pretend like he’s trying while still behaving badly and continuing to make immoral decisions. I feel like I have tried all sorts of avenues to avoid divorce but as he is manipulating me with words but his actions are the opposite, I don’t know what else to do. I don’t want my daughter to be around all his lying and cheating nor do I want her to be influenced by it and think it’s ok for her future husband to treat her this way. She’s only 2 but I know she is paying attention. Please help pray for us. I don’t know what to do. It’s as if my husband left me and was replaced with an evil twin. It’s literally like night and day and therapy isn’t helping and I can’t keep taking the emotional abuse. I feel like I’m way past my breaking point especially with his lying continuing.

Praying for you. My wife and I were seperated almost a year and a half before we got back together through therapy. My son was three then (he’s now 5) and it’s true that little ones are paying attention and have a sense of what’s going on. Protect your daughter and never, never fight in front of her. Don’t forget to keep in close touch with family to keep you grounded through this tough time.

I’m so sorry to hear that you are going through such a painful time. My thoughts and prayers are with you, CatholicMom. :hug1:

The Catholic Church would 100% support you if you left him. Your dd needs a stable environment and you can give that to her by leaving.

I’m so sorry and I will offer prayers.

Why so long to get an annulment? This is going to be a rough road, no?
