Hey Bud, calm down... Was that disrepsectful yes, no doubt. Evict the D word from your vocab. STEP back, WAY back. Like I said before I know it hurts, it's a pain like no other. You have to let her go dingo... You are competing with an idea, you can't win that. I don't know what your belief system is but I believe wholeheartedly in God and I know that he is my hope and that's where I start with everything. Pray for your W, don't engage her, pray for her! Pray for you, pray for your M. Yor M can be restored, but you have to let go 1st. If you believe in God here's a prayer I pray all the time:
For you...
“LORD, I CONFESS ANY TIME that I have ever considered divorce in my mind or have uttered that word to my husband (wife), friends, or family members in regard to my marriage. Whenever I have thought of divorce as an option or a way out of our problems, I ask You to forgive me, for I know it displeases You. I know You hate divorce and it grieves Your Spirit, so I pray that You would help me to never do that again from this day forward “I reject any spirit of divorce that I have invited into my heart and our marriage by the careless words I have spoken or thoughts I have had. I repent of any time I have even thought about what it would be like to be married to someone else. I recognize these thoughts as evil and adulterous, and I repent of them before You. I turn to You to find solutions to any problems in my marriage. Give me wisdom to do things Your way. In Jesus’ name I pray.”
Prayer for your W:
“LORD, I ASK THAT YOU would take any thoughts of divorce out of my wife’s mind and heart. Where she has entertained those kinds of thoughts, I ask that You open her eyes to see how far away that is from Your best for her life and our lives together. For any “time we have discussed divorce or she has used the word “divorce” as a way out of our problems, I come before You on my wife’s behalf and ask for Your forgiveness. Forgive her for that sin so that a spirit of divorce cannot find a home in her heart. If it already has, I ask that You would break that stronghold by the power of Your Spirit. Destroy that lie of the enemy so that it can never rise up again. Show her a better way, which is Your way for our lives. Let there be no divorce in our future. In Jesus’ name I pray.”
