Marriage problems with theist
#7
RE: Marriage problems with theist
Basically what Min said, yeah. Women like to use emotional smokescreens for their real anger. But it works for both genders. More manipulative-minded men tend to use one thing as an excuse to cover anger over something they perceive to be much more minor, something much less worthy of their anger, something they REALIZE they shouldn't be angry over but still can't quite shake that feeling. Or...maybe it's just me that does that. Hahaha...haha...haah....heh...hm.

But anyway...ask her if she'd willing be willing to try doing this with you, rather than being apart from it, let her a part of it. I mean, you guys love each other and are married; this could be a defining part of you guys' relationship. For better or for worse, mind you. I'd advise against becoming religious again for her sake. Not because believing is bad but because it wouldn't be real, it'd be false. You'd be fake for her, and that'll eat away at your love. So...yeah, see if you can get her to open up to the idea of atheism with you.

And please, please, PLEEEASE, spare your children church-schools. They don't need that indoctrination. Let them just go to a public school, those are quite adequate for educating your children, and let them find their own way in non-essential matters like 'faith.' If they find they believe, let them. If not, let them not believe.
