  • I appreciate the inputs but try to see it from my point of view.  She's very indifferent.

  • Better or for worse.  Evidently, you don't have sacraments?  The Precious Blood is there, if you are without, how do you expect to see her as you saw her when you married.  The Cure De Ars told a young catechists group, the reason that marriages break, and should not, is because a spouse or spouses see the faults and does not see or try to see the good qualities of the spouse as they were when married. And he cried.

  • That is correct. If you have the misfortune of being involved in a civil divorce, you would still not be free to remarry unless the former union was anulled. However, you would still be free to recieve communion.

    What if, a couple were largely non-religious at the time of their wedding but years later the husband becomes a traditional Catholic and the wife is a novus ordite with a mind filled by indifferentism?  The husband, good and faithful, tries numerous attempts to get her to embrace the truth but whether it's through extreme intellectual limitations or a sickening indifference, she refuses to embrace the truth?

    Should the husband get a legal separation?


    Is the wife abusive? Sickening indifference says more to me than she a woman who refuses to convert but respects the other partners decision and cares for him.
    I know a marriage where the husband is Catholic and the wife is protestant. She attends Mass, homeschooled and raised their children Catholic, but she has not converted.

    Take an example where the wife was just a burden (intellectually un-stimulating) and the husband just wanted to be rid of her.  A divorce would be acceptable providing he didn't remarry.  That's how I see it.


    If the man can't remarry (or even date other women as a faithful Catholic), then what is the point of getting rid of her?

    He might as well be nice and cordial with his existing wife, keep his children happy by staying with her and put up with the fact that his wife is a bit dim, compared to him.  At least he has a good housekeeper.  If he has stayed with her for 34 years she cannot be that bad.

    The doctor the above poster knows must be at least 60 year old, so his abandoning his wife is all about having sex with younger women and has very little to do with intellect.  I can pretty much guarantee that a man like that would date any dim-witted Vegas showgirl.  Anyone with the IQ of 36-26-36 would be "intellectually stimulating" enough for him.


    I really like this post! Well said.
