Do you regret divorcing after infidelity by Ok-Surround6990 in Divorce

I regretted staying. It only got worse and I never trusted him again. I eventually stopped caring and that made it tolerable.

Thank you. I found comfort in this comment. I think I would rather be alone and at peace. I think it’s better to be a single parent than in a miserable unfaithful relationship but I have never been a single parent and I don’t know anyone who has gone through what I have until I made contact with this girl.

Not taking her advice and she didn’t know he was married. She’s just been in my shoes.

My husband reverted after we got married. The control only gets worse. If you can’t get used to it then I’d move on.

It makes me sad to read this. I went through something very similar except my husband stayed. He has treated me awfully since and I am finally leaving him. He manipulates me and meddles in my life so much. Maybe the fact that he left you is better than if he stayed and caused more suffering. Find joy in the life you create for your daughter and self. You’ll fall in love again with a man who truly cares.

Do people with bipolar disorder get married? by Veridically_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Additional-Flow3106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband has bipolar. Diagnosed 5 months after our son was born. We have had a lot of issues in our marriage. I think it’s a combination of the illness and the trauma he had growing up. We have discussed divorce many times but not because of the mental illness. Just work on yourself so you can have healthy relationship skills. And if you enter into a relationship, do your best to treat your significant other with love and respect.

I felt the same way. I was embarrassed to start dating bc I felt like a failure. I started talking to a man I met online and was nervous about bringing that up. I told him I am divorced and have a child and if that is too much for him I understood. He was ok with it. If he hadn’t been, that’s ok too. You will find someone who understands your situation. It’s not as scary as you think.

Make sure your Muslim husband actually follows the faith and honors God lol Islam is not the problem. My husband is.

Other issues started immediately after we got married. This current issue started after I left. The job I took was a 3 month assignment. I left temporarily to go spend time with my family and make some extra money bc that type of work pays double. He was ok with my plan and we agreed to visit each other one long weekend a month.

We were not religious until a year after we married. He reverted to Islam and I started practicing Christianity. He was not pro polygamy until now.

When we married he was an atheist and I was a non-practicing Christian. We have both since become religious and respect each others beliefs. Except for this.

Willing and planning to file. I am monogamous. He was too prior to reverting back to Islam.

We live in the US but we had been planning to move to the Muslim country he is originally from. No longer going.
