“It’s been 16 months of torture for me emotionally. I don’t love my hubby. Not even a bit. I have tried and prayed. It ain’t working. He is actually not my ideal man. Everything about him pisses me off. I can’t stand it anymore. He isn’t working but that isn’t my problem. We were wedded in church.”

I advise that they should both see a marriage counselor…but once again, let me say this loud and clear if you marry in haste you will repent at leisure…”
