People have no idea just how painful and difficult surviving infidelity really is, unless they have been there themselves.
During the initial stages one seems to be literally teetering between life and death. This is not just a bad day or something you will ‘just get over.’ It is worse than death. It is living through your worst nightmare.

(ZIMBABWE) Thank you so much for the articles on this subject marriage. This is one of the critical areas in life that affects mostly women. Please advise. I have a friend whose husband left in 2004 for UK promising to take his wife and children when he settled. In 2006 he sold a vehicle without the knowledge of the wife. She only found a man coming with papers and affidavits signed by the husband selling the truck which the wife was using to take their daughter to school. If the house was not in both their names I am sure he would have sold it too.
As of now he is leaving with a girlfriend who is now pregnant with a second child. The husband only sent the child’s school but does not support the wife or provide transport money for the child. This friend asked for advice from me as what she should do now. She is really hurt and bitter and had opened up, that she misses companionship, to be admired, loved.
From 2004 up to 2009 she has been waiting for this man and now she is hurt as there is no hope of any future with this man. The lady is now 47 years of age. She hasn’t had an affair so far but she says she no longer wants to go on waiting for someone who does not love her. Your urgent advice will be appreciated please.
(USA) I believe your friend has every biblical reason to leave. Her “husband” has deserted them and has forsaken her for another woman, not even bothering to provide financially. To hold on to someone like this is to only invite more pain. He sounds to have no intention of staying married to her and has moved on to a different life. He has commited adultery and the Bible offers a place of protection for this.
Divorce has been abused in our worldly culture to mean something only given by man for anything we may not like about our spouse. From the way they smell to how annoying they are in the morning. But in a biblical sense, I believe divorce can be a place of protection for someone like your friend whose husband has commited adultery and has no intention of coming back from his sin and trying to rebuild the marriage. God wants us to live in freedom to love him and have a life that can bring some level of Christian joy. How can this happen for your friend if she can never move forward with her life when she is married but not “really” married as her husband is living with another woman? I think she should divorce him and pray that the Lord would bless her with either a Godly husband that would love her rightly, or just a single life that could be spared so much cruel, senseless pain.
