Case 869
My wife used to get irritated that I would complain about the lack of cleanliness and order in the house. She believes that everyone should clean and wash their own clothes. That led to me washing and even ironing my clothes in order to appease her. She also used her credit card to buy materials to repair a room in her parents’ house, with the intention—at least I believe so—of moving there.... A few weeks [...]
Case 868
I live with a man who is fifteen years older than I am. We are not married, but he has been married twice before. He has abused me a lot—verbally, physically, and emotionally. He has kicked me out of his house many times, but when I pack my bags to leave, he stops me and asks me to forgive him, so I end up staying with him. Five months ago, I accepted Christ as my [...]
Case 867
My wife didn’t really like having sexual relations with me, from as far back as our honeymoon, and that frustrated me and made me mad. So after seven years of marriage, I ended up being unfaithful.... I have two children with my wife, and I’ve been wanting to restore my home for more than six years, but I don’t know how to approach my wife, even though I go there almost every day to see [...]
Case 866
My husband’s nephew is twenty-two years old. He lives in another country and has asked my husband if he could come and stay with us while he looks for a job to support himself.

I want to help him, but I have a daughter and a son under the [...]
Case 865
I am emotionally messed up.... I’m twenty-eight years old and feel devastated because of realizing that I wasted all my youth.... Many people have successful lives by my age. I, on the other hand, have no gifts nor talents. I am poor in health and I fear that I have a tumor or cancer, but I don’t plan to go to a clinic because I am afraid and ashamed. I’ve thought that maybe all my [...]
Case 864
While planning to leave my boyfriend because of his behavior with other women on social media, I found out that I was pregnant. I sought God’s guidance, we talked with our mentors, and they advised him that, if he truly loved me, he needed to change. So he committed to change, and we made plans to get married. But once again, I caught him sending friend requests to other women, and I’m now being humiliated [...]
Case 863
I am twenty-six and my wife is thirty. These years have been difficult due to financial problems. I have struggled multiple times to find a job because I don’t yet have a university degree, and that has been a big issue in our relationship. My wife has a bachelor’s degree, making it easier for her to find employment, so she has often had to take care of things that are my responsibility.... We have a [...]
Case 862
I’ve been married for eighteen years. I got married because I got pregnant when I was twenty-five years old. During the first four years, my husband would go out partying on weekends and come home late and drunk. He has been very irresponsible with our finances. He’s rude, he uses swear words when he speaks to me, and he calls me fat and ugly. I feel burdened down and like I don’t love him anymore. [...]
Case 861
My husband is a very hardworking man. Over the years, he has managed to build his own business and acquire several beautiful properties. I married him for love, but I feel very hurt because we signed a prenuptial agreement in which I renounced all my rights as a wife. He has a five-year-old daughter from a previous marriage. Not long ago we talked about this matter, and he made it clear to me that everything [...]
