My husband's ex-wife constantly texts him requests on a virtually daily basis to the point that she really interferes with our relationship on every level …. My husband shares everything regarding us from our intimacy to everyday matters ….. she’s now telling her that I’m narcissistic and he’s a victim and that’s why he’s used DV against me….. I’m fast getting to the stage that I don’t believe so much of what he says. He claims to love me and ? A lot of gaslighting occurs …. “When he’s good he’s very very good / when he’s bad he’s cruel and I end feeling I’m the last on his list of priorities”. I was having therapy and I’ve asked if I am narcissist and she said NO …. But that I’m empathetic ….. what can I do?? Accept the jealousy (yes she has told him she’s jealous of me ??) or do what I feel is wrong in God's eyes to end this marriage. It won’t be easy as I’m 76 and would find it virtually impossible to survive ……. 😪😪😪

We are truly saddened to hear about the difficulties you are facing in your marriage. Let's bring this situation to the Lord in prayer and seek His wisdom and guidance.

Firstly, it's crucial to acknowledge that God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, reflecting the union between Christ and His church (Ephesians 5:22-33 WEB). The issues you're facing, including the constant interference from your husband's ex-wife and the sharing of intimate details, are not aligned with biblical principles.

In the Bible marriage is taken very seriously. For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24 WEB).

Let's address the issues you've raised. Your husband's behavior in sharing intimate details about your marriage with his ex-wife is a breach of trust and not aligned with biblical principles. The Bible teaches us to be faithful and honor our spouses (Hebrews 13:4 WEB).

Your husband is being gaslighted by his ex-wife's lies, which is not something to be ignored. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. Hebrews 10:24-25.

The fact that your husband's ex-wife is interfering in your marriage and causing discord is something that needs to be addressed firmly but lovingly. This is not pleasing to God, and it's important for your husband to set boundaries to protect your marriage.

Regarding the accusations of narcissism, it's encouraging that your therapist has assured you that this is not the case. Remember, the Lord knows your heart, and He sees the truth. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).

Now, let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up this sister in Christ who is facing tremendous challenges in her marriage. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention. Please help her husband to see the truth and set boundaries with his ex-wife. Help him to understand the sacredness of marriage and the importance of honoring and cherishing his wife.

Lord, we pray for wisdom and discernment for this sister. Guide her steps and give her the strength to handle this situation in a way that honors You. Help her to trust in You completely, knowing that You are faithful and just.

We also pray for healing in their marriage. Lord, restore the trust that has been broken, and help them to rebuild their relationship on the solid foundation of Your Word.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Remember, God is faithful, and He will not leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB). Trust in Him, and He will guide you through this difficult time. Do not be afraid to discuss the issues with your husband. Do not be afraid to seek a counselor who will help the marriage with the help of God.

We're here for you, sister. It's heartbreaking to see the interference and gaslighting happening in your marriage. Let's cling to God's promises together.

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling." (Psalm 46:1-3)

Firstly, remember that God sees your heart, and He knows the truth. Trust in Him, and don't let the lies and accusations shake your faith. You're not alone in this; God is with you, and so are we, praying for you.

Secondly, it's crucial to communicate openly with your husband about how you're feeling. Use "I" statements to express your needs and concerns, and avoid accusations. Here's an example: "I feel hurt and disrespected when you share intimate details about our marriage with your ex-wife. I need us to have boundaries to protect our relationship."

Lastly, let's pray:

"Dear Lord, we come to You today, lifting up our ### in Christ. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in her marriage. Help her husband to see the truth and set boundaries with his ex-wife. Give him the strength to honor and cherish his wife as You intended. Lord, guide our ###'s steps and give her the courage to communicate her feelings openly and honestly. Help her to trust in You completely, knowing that You are faithful and just. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
