Divorce
My husband told me in a text he wants a divorce…. We were already talking about it but yeah pretty intense. Sorry for all my marriage posts. Just grateful for the community here.

I’m sorry to hear! You will be okay!
@brooke1579 Thank you my love!
For context I have ocd and bipolar and I struggle to go under my husbands leadership financially but he is aware of my mental health struggles playing a part in it and we work together. Ultimately it sounds like you love your family and value your marriage getting Botox could be part of perfectionism ocd which could have been a compulsion I pray your husband can understand. That as hard as we want to follow our husbands leadership esp financially compulsions sometimes are strong and take us downstream. Praying for a mending and believing for a miracle tonight
Why did he say that
@makeupandchinchillas There’s been a lot of trouble in the past, but the issue that popped the bubble was that I still choose to get Botox knowing he doesn’t support it. He says he feels disrespected and he can’t lead me because I want to do things I want to do.
@K-M It's your body, your choice. It's the ultimate disrespect for him to think he has final say. I'm so sorry this is happening to you, all the hugs and support ❤ it must be beyond painful. I hope you two are able to make it through
@girlanon In marriage, there is one body. Especially Christian marriages where the male is leading big decisions. Just another perspective I don’t think he was being disrespectful
@makeupandchinchillas Yeah, this is what he says. That I’m not fulfilling my duty as the wife. So you are on point.
Did your ocd make you get Botox maybe you can explain it to him in a way that you struggle with it and apologize
@makeupandchinchillas No it’s not my ocd. I don’t like the lines around my eyes, so I just enjoy doing it. I’ve only done it 3 times
I don’t consider it excessive or weird to get Botox. For example I got a contour stick as a compulsion and as part of impulsivity which is also part of anxiety
It’s normal to like beauty and okay to get Botox! I’m just wondering it sounds like there might be something strong driving you to do the Botox esp since the steaks are so high that was just my gut feeling. Maybe the Holy Spirit leading me?
@makeupandchinchillas Do you mean like you think it’s OCD because I still want to do Botox and I know he is divorcing me?
@K-M Could be, just an impression I got
@makeupandchinchillas I’m not here to judge I’m in your corner. Either way I support you.
@makeupandchinchillas I just don’t like being told what to do. I’m stubborn, not used to it, and probably not meant to be married
@K-M Welcome to submitting to a husband lol I feel u
@makeupandchinchillas Yeah lol. It’s not for me. Thought it was, but I was wrong.
@makeupandchinchillas It’s why he wants to divorce me. Cause I won’t submit.
@K-M Your a Christ follower. Jesus brought you two together. Give yourself some grace
@makeupandchinchillas I agree with you. The Bible says (im paraphrasing) what God has put together, let no man separate. Go to Biblical counseling before calling it quits.

@Anonymous Thank you. I feel ok right now. Thinking a lot about my rent and what’s going to happen.
I love Botox! That was really shitty of him to text something like that. Hopefully you guys can work it out, if that’s what you want.
