blackspade . . . let me be 100% honest with you. You're in the same boat i was in for a time. There have been times i have wondered if God truly exists or if he cares . . . i have had occasions where i was just too depressed to do anything but lie down and cry silently.

But each time i felt so down, a certain peace i cant understand floods my soul . . . in those moments when i prayed, i felt someone was listening . . that someone cared as long as i was willing to seek for His help.

Your situation is normal, we are still in a flesh that would rather sin than obey the Lord. We live in a society where everyone else who isnt christian seems to be happier and live more fulfilled lives than those of us who carry the bible around. But we also live in a society where God still loves His own no matter how small they may be.

Brother, this is the time to read the bible more . . . this is the time to get involved in bible-believing church, this is a time to surround urself with friends who are interested in the things of God too. We cant go this journey alone . . . that is why Prov 27:17 says - Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

God's grace is sufficient for you. Stay firm.

Like when ladies come out with that classic "it is me not you" line?


I think you should start looking for alternatives, He dont like you any more lol.

Of course you would agree with treetop because you are the ones being praised by his comments.

Either treetop is intentionally praising you fairies to up his rep, or he just hasn't been on the receiving end of women's emotional flares.
Many people out there are emotionally unstable. You can be the nicest man in the world all you want, however, if you run into a woman that does not know how to manage her emotions, your kindness would not stop her from using you as a verbal punching bag to release steam.

I can't tell you how much outside sources interfere with people's personal lives. Most can't manage or separate the two. If you have a bad day at work you can easily come home and take it out on your loved ones without thinking twice about it.

this is nice
but it shouldn't be one sided
a lot of men lack respect for women
hence the reason some of them nag.
A happy stress free man makes a stress free woman
like my father would say

@DIVA 1,
YES I AGREE BUT WE WOMEN SHOULD HOLD OUR TONGUE MORE OFTEN, WE BLAME MEN FOR BEATING A WOMAN WHEN SHE PUSHES HIM TO THE WALL, IT IS SAME THING IF YOU LOVE YOU HUSBAND/BOYFRIEND/LOVER YOU WILL NOT THINK OF DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT, I GUESS SOME GIRLS ARE LIKE THAT THE SAME WAY SOME GUYS BEAT UP WOMEN IT IS JUST THE WAY IT IS.

It was very intrestine reading the diffrernt responces to the question even thou we sort of digressed from the main questions at times i can understand this guys sitiuation, but let me say there is a big difference when your GF rains insult on you and when your wife does, even as its not something to be proud of, honestly they do no mean to do this but if they do then there is a problem we are failing to see, either we are making them unhappy to the point were they being to feel frustrated and who else will the lash out on but the husband, so when this happens is time for the man to sit back and assecc the condition of the woman and fix whaterver is missing, secoundly you can simple tell her in a mild voice at the end of the abuses the you truelly love her, these words if used right can quench the contentious spirit in her.But i will really recomend you find a time she is happy and disscuse how her actions make you feel back and that you what to know what make her feel like abusing you as its not a good virtue for a loving wife,for those who are religious which is good for all you can shear with her some scritpures on the qualities of a virtues woman as women are more religious than men (no debating this please), if you do this with love and follow up with constant joint daily prayer i promise you there will be a great change.Its high time we men understand that when our wifes are talking you dont interupt them just TRY to listen even if she is off point she need to know you were listenning. Thank you.
