“After fifteen years and I have finally come to grips with the fact that my husband is manipulative. I was reading a marriage book to him last night and it touched on all the things he was doing. He flew off the handle and that let me know he was guilty. I had been told he had been doing this by family but could not see it. Now I see it. I left him once and came back because of manipulation. God has opened my eyes. I have four children. I no longer want this relationship, and because I decided to come back to him to work on the relationship, my family is upset with me but, when I leave this time, I am not coming back. The only way to keep from falling back into a situation like this is to pray and ask God to get me out of the situation. Once out, I will stay out, no matter what.” (Edited)
Three things:
- Stop blaming your husband for your actions.
- Be sure you work at least as hard at this as you want God to work at it.
- You get an “A” for style – reading a marriage book to him that touched on all the things he was doing!
