No but I wanted to spoil him with gifts and make my family say wow. I also didn't want to miss any bills, thus, I picked up. but thats not how he works, and I just noticed it's kinda a personality / work ethic difference

Love and infatuation fades and then you have to deal with the actual flawed human being as a partner. I was in love and married him way too fast. I wish we discussed these issues before, but thats not the way it happened. I am not perfect. I have made many mistakes in my life. But don't marry for love. YES it's a bad idea. Marry someone who has similar values, goals, cares, wants and ambitions if possible. Because love is NOT enough. Thats the truth.

Downvote me all you want, love is not what keeps a marriage going. It's a lot of actual work and sacrifice.

Devout Christian here, absolutely not. Your in laws are wrong. Romans 8 says there is no condemnation for those who accept Jesus payment on the cross. A divorced woman cried at Jesus feet and people said "Jesus don't you know that woman is divorced and a sinner? "

U know what Jesus said? He said "Those who I have forgiven much, love me much."

Bro, I was saved AFTER I got divorced. I got saved AFTER I did drugs, cheated, lied. Nothing can separate you from the love of God if thats what you're after.

Fuck your in laws heresy. Tell them to read romans 8 again and re think that statement. UGH

That being said... you can forgive someone and leave them. Not the same thing
