Bible Question: Although I have not involved the pastor I have told him my feelings towards this other person yet he appears not to care for the relationship continues through email notes and I imagine phone calls at work(as it was before I told him my feelings). The other person I also told that I was not happy the way things were, now she avoids me like the plague, but still is sending the emails and communicating with the entire family. I feel like the bad man out in the storm....no one cares how it makes me feel. |
Bible Answer: kdblessed: My wife and I have been married 42 years. Neither of us carries on any sort of clandestine correspondence with anyone -- not by e-mail, letter, phone call or personal visit. Absolute fidelity, honesty, and devotion are not options in a marriage. Marriage is sharing, and couples who play games with each other do so at the risk of severing the bonds of this holy union. The Bible leaves no doubt about what God expects of the partners in a marriage. --Hank |
