SadHub, I just saw the reference to your bishop having heard both sides of the story, and that made me wonder if you are part of the religion I was raised in.

Is this a situation where she has left the faith and you are still in it?

I have seen some people go through really intense and long angry phases when leaving a high-demand religion. Marriages often don't survive, and it really does have less to do with the marriage itself and more about the marriage getting caught up in the religious issue.

Apologies if I am way off base.
