ValerieJane24 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 5 1/2 years (3 1/2 years of which we were married), 1 child later, he wants a divorce. There are no solid reasons as to why (he was at first just saying it was everything!). We have been seperated since Easter (March 31st 2005) so that's 2 1/2 months now. For the first month it was awful! Fighting, him calling names and yelling, me always crying begging him to try to work on it with me. Finally I came to the conclusion I can not change his mind, so I stopped letting the small things bug me (yes I should have done that long ago). Now we get along GREAT. So great it doesn't seem to bother one another to hug, flirt a little, laugh, joke around,just touch one another like 'normal' couples would. The problem you may ask? We are still getting divorced!!! The whole time I have not wanted this at all, I want to try, I want to make this work. Last week he asked if I would start going to church with him. I didnt' know what to say- I've never been a Church-goer, his family is, he hated it growing up and rebelled and stopped going as soon as he moved out of his parents house. While we were together we had talked about finding a church and I had said I would gladly go with him and support it, but wasn't sure if his religion was for me, seeing as I didn't agree with all of the aspects. After thinking about it, I would happily go to church with him, and learn more about his religion to see where (and if) it fits in my life and own beliefs, but the only problem that I'm having is, I'm taking him asking me to go to church with him every sunday, as him saying he would like to try at us. Am I taking this the wrong way? Is it normal for people who are getting divorced to start going to church together when they never went before in the 5 (almost 6) years they were together? HELP!
