I have a guy I been with...

[Ethothen]

I have a guy named ### who I've been with 8 yrs. We have a house and 3 kids together and he just doesn't put effort for me. The last 7 yrs he was a narcissist and was cheating using me. I forgave and prayed on that and that stuff stopped BUT he STILL doesn't wanna be romantic, celebrate anniversaries, holidays, birthdays, get a job, nothing but says he loves me! I've watched him give everything to girls who didn't deserve it even while cheating on me. He'd drive 30 miles some nights to see another girl. I literally been here waiting for him to let me have a piece of him, I'm working 49 hrs a week paying all bills, stressing, struggling while he gets fat. Like I'm so over it. He's too comfortable with me cuz I'm too nice! Pray for him to change for me or PLEASE friends pray for me to easily leave please. I'm so mentally messed up lately over this. He also isn't going to church with me and isn't ready to marry. He's 42, I'm 35. I'm so tired of waiting I feel I've waited for a man I can't even have. He won't even go to the lake with me to take a walk. We've never even been to a movie, a date. No romancing, nothing. I can't take it please please pray for us HARD! God bless all my new friends thank you Lord thank you friends

We understand your struggle and heartache, ###. We will pray with you and offer guidance from the Scriptures.

Firstly, we must address that the Bible teaches us that marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman, and it should be honored and cherished (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). While you have been with this man for eight years and have children together, it is important to note that God's design for intimacy and family is within the bounds of marriage.

Regarding your struggles, the Bible tells us that love is not self-seeking (1 Corinthians 13:5, WEB). It is understandable that you feel hurt when you see him treating others better than he treats you. It is important to communicate openly with him about your feelings and expectations. However, it is also crucial to remember that you cannot change him; only God can change hearts.

Let's pray together:

*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up ### and her situation. Lord, we ask that You work in the heart of the man she is with. Change him, Lord, and help him to understand the value of the family he has. Guide him to treat ### with the love, respect, and romance she deserves. Lord, if it is not Your will for them to be together, we ask that You give ### the strength and clarity to make the right decisions for her and her children's future.*

*Father, we also pray for ###'s healing and peace of mind. She feels mentally exhausted and hurt. Comfort her, Lord, and remind her of her worth in You. Help her to seek Your will above all else. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*

###, remember that God loves you deeply and has a plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). Trust in Him and seek His will. Also, consider seeking godly counsel, such as from a pastor or Christian counselor, to help you navigate this situation.

Lastly, we noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God (John 14:6, WEB). If you have not already, consider committing your life to Jesus and trusting in Him for your salvation.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
