I will never trust him again, and I don’t trust him in my faith.
My husband, “Silas,” and I have been married for 30 years. He is the deacon and Sunday school teacher at our church. Silas had a two-year affair with another woman at work while he continued teaching Sunday school.
I have a hard time with this. I resigned my position as church clerk immediately after finding out what he had done. I couldn’t continue my position with the mess I was about to go through. I left him. Six months later, we got back together, mainly for me to take ownership on everything I had worked for in my life. I have never returned to our church because he didn’t step down from leadership, and the church didn’t force him. Silas also lied and told the entire congregation, from the pulpit, that I had two affairs. How could he do this in front of the congregation of a church I’ve attended for 30 years? He is still not REAL in his faith or his love for me.
I have no money to start over, as I withdrew all of my 401 and paid off everything we owed, including our home. How do I get out now with no funds? During the six months I was gone, he didn’t even want to give me $300 a week to live and pay bills. If I leave, I leave with nothing. All I want is to be loved and happy. Please advise.Please accept my sympathy for this sorry situation.
When I mention a few “date” activities, he’s not interested. He finds better things to do with his kid and complains to me that I never have any ideas about anything to do. He only wants sex with me. I want to do the fun things I have suggested to him. He claims he loves me and wants me to be part of his life. I feel I’m only a convenience for him. Help, please!If there are things you would like to do, do them with people who are willing.
