No, neither of us can say for certain what's going on, given the scant information provided. I don't know, though.. While unhappiness is, agreeably, generally a slow process, but her friends may have helped her realize this a little sooner? And it could be drugs, but it takes quite a while of usage for it to start to impact your daily life.. I can't really think of anything that would cause her to just change overnight, unless he did something to reeeally piss her off :wink:

Maybe "he", not his religious beliefs drove her insane.

My first question to you is are you a qualified marriage counselor? If not, what qualifications do you have that make you a good choice to try and counsel this couple?

I am not saying you don't know what you are doing, but there are so many people out there that act like social workers that don't have a clue as to what they are doing. Make sure you are skill in this trade before giving it a try. I mean, unless you have gone to Medical School you aren't really a doctor are you?

My two cents, good luck to your friends:heart:

Right I'm not qualified in a society way, but as a christian the Word gives me guidance. I guess this is the wrong place to ask if I'm going to come against this type of responces.

This issue dosnen't sound like a faith issue, it sounds like a chemical issue to me. Eather it is an outside base chemical, Meth, speed, ect, or a chemical imbalance in her brain, or other medical reasioning.

but thats just a guess we really don't have enough information to make any kind of asesment of this issue. we eather need more information,(Background, how long this has beengoing on, Ect) Of your SOL.

Nope this isn't an issue of chemical in her system, I feel that it is just the fact that she (as mentioned by her) wnats to live in the fairy tale world and have her cake and eat it too. My buddy is a faithful christaian and his wife recently gave herself to the Lord. It's outside involvedment by parties that discredit the Lord that are chimming in to her. All I can do is keep by both their sides and help them out as best as the Lord sees fit to alow me. I appreciate some of the comments. We'll see, it might5 not be what God has intended for either of them. I pray for the kids in this relationship.

To assume this woman is on meth because she's sleeping around, smoking, and yelling at her kids? First of all, most mothers yell at their kids (and swear too, you can't deny it), and lots of women smoke, and a fair amount of women (sadly) cheat on their husbands, with NO drugs involved. And the OP said that she'd changed her religion, perhaps to be with this guy? Not totally sure, but it seems reasonable to assume.. So what if she's not happy with this life she's stuck in now? It sounds to me like she's just unhappy. She could be doing alot worse if she was on drugs.


The way this guy made it sound (at least to me) that it wasa a sudden change. Unhappyness is a subtle change over a period of time. There would have been other signs. sudden changes are made by an outside infulance. It dosen't have to be drugs, and I didn't say just drugs, there could have been any number of thing that triggered it. I can't deny that. but at the same time you can't sit here and say that you know the it's because she changed herself for this man eather. Neather one of us has enough information go go off of. I simply based my thoughts off the fact that it sounded to me like a sudden change, which is what lead me to my conclusion.

Okay so this outside influence is a couple of Wicans whom are also swingers. And no she didin't change her religion for him, she found religion thru him and changed for herself. Now it's back to the super yelling, ungrateful attitude and staying out til morning.

many people here don't judge sexual relationships the same way that Christians do. I do see any inherent problem with swingers except for the fact that she has a husband. Many people here think that the Wican religion is just as valid as the Christian one so you might say she found religion through them and the outside influence is Christianity.

Here is an interesting fact for you

"Divorce rates among conservative Christians were significantly higher than for other faith groups, and much higher than Atheists and Agnostics experience."
