My Husband is Cheating on Me With His Work!

It's a good thing to have a hardworking husband, but sometimes men can become workaholics as their career overtakes their personal relationships. Pastor Mark and Grace answer a tough question sent in by a listener!

Interesting enough, I used to work at a warehouse. I knew some of my co-workers who purposely worked late to avoid going home. I always thought that was sad.

Can we just address the elephant in the room that 99% of even Chrisitan marriages in 2024 both the husband and wife need to work a job. There is no such thing as stay at home mother or wife unless daddy is making close to six figures. Noone can even afford to live and raise a family anymore on one income.

I like these talks with both of you. I am single but it's like I'm learning for if and when I do get a husband again.

Not sure if I would classify it in the category of Cheating, “addiction” yes, often people (women included) will utilize work, hobbies, to numb the pain in the marriage

My husband used to have some friends who were very into him, to the point when one transferred to my store she made a point of telling everyone she was my husbands work wife. My Husband put his foot down when he heard she had said that, he hadn’t realised she was like that. Needless to say the girl backed off.

I'm favoured, $155k every 4weeks! And I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America🇺🇲🙌

I know a couple who said, “if we go our separate ways each of us has a 50/50 chance of a glow up. If we stay together we have a 100% chance of extending or prolonging the misery we created the last decade. I want the best for you, even if that’s not me. Let’s give each other 1-3 months or 3-6 months apart to take stock and figure out which we want and how bad we want this life together, if at all. I love you enough to let you go find your happiness. If I can’t or won’t be what you need I respect you enough to step off and give you an opportunity it to be free so we don’t hold each other back from anything that could be really good or healthier for our kids. Let’s part by next month, and circle back if and when this relationship seems important to us. Cheers 🍻 All the best!”

Does that seem cold? 🥶 to anyone else?

This should never be words spoken by anyone. This is childish coming from anyone's mouth. You can't be cheated on by your work. Give me a break. It also minimizes the actual act of true cheating.
