    She drifts though life seeing kids and spouses as convertible annuities. (Child support and alimony). Not all women are wired like this but many women are and you can’t change that. The relationship is transactional that way. Forget the therapist,..,he needs an attorney. A strategic thing he CAN do is cut off the money flow so she can’t fund her attorney. Force her to settle quickly.

Remember as believers we are to be set apart from the world. He can’t think like the world thinks and just run. He probably takes his commitment seriously because he made a vow in front of God. He just has to trust God to see him through this season. God has a funny way of working things out. His wife could do a 180 when God is finish with her. Everyone has their season of challenges they have to go through.. Something Christian have to do is stop listening to the world and start listening to God.

    Far from it, there is nothing in the bible about living this way. Read Matthew Ch. 5, especially the part where Jesus talks about what it means to divorce and be with someone else, and you'll see what I mean. Part of me thinks you are developing a strawman of Christianity to make it seem like it lacks common sense and that you're smarter than it, but this guy made a mistake to do this. Him saying that he's "trying to be a good man" is just a justification for it

All you have to say is, "Thank God this is over!!", then watch her crumble, probably groveling too. I'm hoping the house they have is only in his name because he'll be able to tell her to pack her bags, regardless of whether or not she can stand on her own should not be his concern, he's much better off and just try and move forward.
