That's so frustrating. So many times outsiders can look in and see the answers while it's so hard to see the answers when you're the one going through the problem. I'm sure you've done everything you can to convince her to leave him. Sometimes you have to exercise "tough love" because all this is hurting more than just Gina, it's hurting everyone in your family.

Oh, yeah, I totally agree with you! Most of the time when I'm in a situation I don't see so clearly. To others the answer is often so obvious, but I'm usually too busy fretting. :P I'm glad that Warren keeps me straight!

tu hermana y su marido

Post by seichu kaisho » Tue Oct 19, 2004 11:02 pm

the word for purple wounds: bruises.

Lord Jesus, help this horrible deal come to an end for epdc and Gina. By youy power, may Satan no longer be able to hurt them by any means. Heal Gina's wounds and help her to break free from her husband since their marital relationship has put her in danger and caused her emotional - and physical - pain. May the man be struck with shame of his wickedness and come to repent. Help epdc and Gina to not be hateful and keep them safely away from injury from now on. Keep them from evil. Restore a strong spirit of happiness unto Gina for her to forgive her abuser and get over the heartbreak of separating from him. All this will be done because it is Your holy plan. amen

UPDATE

Post by epdc » Fri Oct 22, 2004 10:30 am

Gina came and my mom asked her to move all her stuff over there and she says "mom i don`t wanna live there but i also can`t come back here because it would be like a failure".

so it seems she hates to be there but feels that if she comes with us she would fail in her marriage, she thinks she has had many failures and any success in her life. ya know, slowly she has started to open her eyes. For example, when she came here will all her bruises she recognize he won`t change and that the relationship has no future, she even said she is there because she is stupid.

my mom suggested her something: that she can move with some friends gina has that rent an apartment, that if she works and study my family would help her with the rent. Gosh, she got all excited!!!! she was totally agrree!!!! during next we will be packing her stuff and next weekend , when my dad be here (and everything be safe) she will tell her husband that she is moving so if he gets all histerical he won`t do anything if he knows my dad is here. and in that house he won`t reach her because none of the people over here like him.

pray guys!!! she is walking verrrryyyyy slowly but she is walking to the goal God has for her. It doesn`t matter how long is gonna take her, pray that she gets there.

I hope she does move out and go back to school. It's sad that she would feel like she's a failure for wanting out of a relationship where she's being beaten, but that's the case a lot of times. Many women feel, probably because of low self esteem, that they have to stay in bad relationships and put up with being beaten. I'm not saying her behavior is okay. But if you can understand that she has probably felt she had to stay in a bad relationship, it might help you cope with everything better. This is Gina's problem and she's going to have to deal with it.

Even People Do Chores

Maybe you should bring this up on teh Spanish forum! That way, we can get people speaking there again, and you will have your Latino petheads praying for you as well!

It still annoys the teeth out of me how lifeless the Spanish forum is.

There is almost nothing worse than domestic violence. It would be justice served for any man who would physically abuse women for any reason to be on the receiving end of a thrashing as far as I'm concerned. Not that I'm advocating violence, I don't intend it that way, but a guy who would knock a lady around should get the same handed back to him. It should not be tolerated whatsoever. Maybe I can send my friend Vito over there to take care of some business. :x

Yeah, it is a terrible thing, but she needs to wake up and get out of that situation too. She's not responsible for him hitting her, but she shouldn't continue to put up with being hit. They both need help.

I WOULD LOVE THAT, I`m gonna send you his address and a pic of her husband so Vito can recognize him HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Vito can send me the bill later LOL.


Sigh guys, I have been so depress lately, really really depress. I don`t know if this has to do with me leading a dance ministry at church (ya know, that the enemy might be attacking me) man, and things are not helping!!! i`m getting nuts at school, nuts at my comunity service (is a requirement for me to graduate), nuts at my german class. sigh...

Sometimes I just wanna throw everything away ya know. Sometimes I just wanna lock in my room and not come out in a month.

and all this Gina thing, man, really made me go way down. See, this is the reason why i don`t ever wanna have a boyfriend AT ALL. I`m like so mad... :cry: sigh, I`m mad, why he had to be a *@!?!*x...? she wanted to work out why he didn`t treat her well???? why? why why why!!!!!?

I see her and I think "what can I expect for myself?" ya know, also my parent`s marriage is not going "exactly" well either. makes me think "what can I expect to myself?". I`m so mad.....
