Staying married leading to depression and faith frustrarion

[thewanderer]

WOW
This answer scares me because I know myself and praying the sorrow away and just kinda hoping for the best hasn’t worked.
I see non Christians divorcing and enjoying family life.
Pictures of family trips . . . GRANDCHILDREN
and me . . .
I just have to sit miserably?
I just cannot believe that this is a fulfillment of His Devine plans.Correction : I can have believe that I may not understand the Lord’s perfection in fates , but as I really reach down deep , I am not feeling it.
I think it’s clear that I must speak with a priest and be very honest.
This will destroy our lives as we know them.But it feels like this is what God is calling me to do.

I DO NOT want to sin.
But I’m falling into spiritual crisis

Priest here I come

thank you for your response

As 1ke said, you should consult your pastor as to whether or not you have reason to think your marriage is invalid. Fraud is not the only reason for a marriage to be found invalid. However, from the circumstances of your convalidation as you have explained above I do not see how your marriage would be invalidated due to fraud as the fraud would have had to have taken place at the time of the marriage, however, when you were married you seem to have known the full circumstances of your situation. Again, even with respect to fraud there could be circumstances we are not aware of that invalidated it due to fraud, but given the limited information we do have I do not see a reason for it to be considered invalid.

You did not say that there was dispensation at the time of your convalidation.
Questions for those who may know:

Did the priest agree to do the convalidation anyway?
Did this priest overstep his remit and the convalidation is not valid?
Or does the priest have the ability to grant the dispensation and in doing the ceremony granted it?
