this was told to me this morning. and boy is it profound!

a retired minister said when he was doing marraige consiling before marraige,
he told the 2 that when we get married to a unbeliever eventually sooner or later you will have problems with the father in law.....

and you all know who he is....

Absolutely! It's happened so many times. Profound, pointed, and true.

There are many Christian women who are married to unbelievers who can verify this too.

Yes I agree.

It can be the hardest time of a person's life to be married to a non beliver. I was there. The pain, and constant worry, even the fear can tear a marrige apart. It did. He left me for another woman. I praise God that made me wiser and I picked a better partner now. We have been married nine years now, and it makes a world of differnce when you are married to a beliver of Jesus Christ.

It is common. Way too common.

You never cease to be a child to them. And it seems the longer you are around the younger you get treated.

I don't know if it is an inability to acknowledge you have lived long enough to pretty much be up to speed with them, that they are slowing down and roles are actually reversing or they just don't want to face reality.

You need some kind of agreement. Good luck getting it. :not:

the hardest thing I have with my parents was the constant "shaming"
and I'm still working on that, gosh its gonna be a lifelong thing

not saying I should'nt be ashamed when I should, but its the constant
shaming and criticalness.

gotta have some boundries!!! but mine wont acknowledge that... oh well.
