New here, my fairytale gone wrong

[FunDad]

I'm so sorry. It's amazing the lies even Christians will tell themselves and believe.

Anyway, sounds like you need to detach according to the DR approach of last resort. Example:

"At this point I have told him that I still have hope and faith and I am praying that he reconsiders his decision"

-- Maybe something like "It's not what I want but I'm not going to stand in your way" would be less clingy.

The GAL and PMA approaches work. I've been using them for a month. Dr. Dobson has a book called "LOVE MUST BE TOUGH" That's really good and takes the same approach as the DR.

Don't give up faith that God can work in this situations. Be sure to find and appreciate the silvers linings too. :-)
