My Husband Doesn't Love Me
	Sounds like a narcissist... get away while you can.

He's Twice My Age

I believe it is wrong. That could be my own problem however, there will be people who don't approve. Some will be your family... some will be his... some will act happy for you and secretly think it's disgusting...I imagine most will. There was a couple that just got married...her 19, him 29 and I heard what they didn't. If you truly feel this is who God wants to be your husband than you won't care what others think. I imagine it's not God's choice otherwise you wouldn't have asked.

He's Twice My Age

To expand on my own personal beliefs... I think it is wrong mostly because alot of people want younger mates for the wrong reasons. It makes them feel young, they look good, they are proud they got someone much younger than them, they are middle-aged and haven't grown up yet or are still acting like a high schooler, they want to control the younger person or mold them, the list goes on and on. Where would we be at if we all dated people half our age.

He's Twice My Age

If a guy dates an 18yo & he is much older, I wonder how young he would go if it wasn't illegal? Some people have issues they need 2 deal with. Younger women esp. don't assert themselves & r very easy-going with an older man. Some men take advantage of this instead of learning how 2 get along & compromise w/their mate. In Biblical times it was acceptable. It's not now. Much the same as cultures where it's acceptable for men 2 hug & kiss...it means something different if done where it isn't a social custom.

Are Annulments Biblical
	What about not consummating a marriage? I appreciate all the responses however, I just want to know everyone's opinion about ending a marriage through annulment that was never consummated esp. non catholics (since I found some info on the catholic beliefs)

Are Annulments Biblical

Consummate=2 bringsomething 2 its completion.Marriages r consummatedwhen intercourse has takenplace after the ceremony.In some theologies a marriage is not a bindingcontract until & unless it has beenconsummated. W/in the Catholic Church a marriage that has not yet beenconsummated regardless thereason can B dissolved. Inability or an intention 2 refuse 2 consummatemarriage is probablegrounds for an annulment.There havebeen SupremeCourt rulings that a marriage could B declared null &void if notconsummated.

Are Annulments Biblical
	how do we know "God puts together" two ppl in marriage? Perhaps they aren't joined completely until the marriage is consummated. I guess no one else has heard that a marriage isn't complete until it is consummated. I thought the definition of the word implies that but I will look it up.

Are Annulments Biblical
	if the marriage isn't consumated (no oral or intercourse), you still can't get an annulment? Has anyone heard that a marriage isn't complete until it is consumated?
