If I may, dear, you don't worry about those people. God is big, and able to take care of one and all. Cherish your freedom-it's God's gift to you. Know that you are loved, and have many brothers and sisters in Christ.
From your friend-

This will be hard to express in few words but I will try. My biggest hope is that my prayer request won't sound like sour grapes.
12 years ago I met a man on a chat line, he was attracted to me because I was a Christian and he said he was one too. We went out on a date but the Holy Spirit kept urging me to ask him to explain his marital status. I found out that his divorce was not final yet and I told him I could not date him until it was. A year or more later it was but by then he was seeing another woman and was in a relationship with her for a few years. They broke up and a few years later he and I started a "relationship". For nearly 3 years I dated him, hung out with him and exchanged words of love and romance with him. All the while warning bells were ringing VERY loud in the ears of my Pastor, friends and family. My ears? Well, they were deaf for way to long. I stayed in a "relationship" with a man who said he loved God and me but in both cases he lied. He put everything ahead of God and to see him in Saturday, or even Sunday service was maybe 2-5 times in the nearly 3 years we had a "relationship". He would not allow me to meet his parents or his friends because they wouldn't like me and because of my weight. I was blind, I hung in there and I hoped he'd change, that he'd start going to church with me like he promised and I kept hoping he'd really love me but he never did. He'd go off on me, ride me about so many things and then he'd turn around and be so nice and do nice things for me. It was a roller coaster ride and the pain I inflicted on myself staying in that "relationship" has only recently healed. I think the all time low spot in that relationship was when he took care of me after I had had an operation, we got into a fight and he was just so mean. I left the room and I asked myself what I would do if I was ever married to this man and I answered myself right away that I'd kill myself. I rebuked that thought right then and there and that and so many more things finally got me to start waking up. I ended the "relationship", went to the altar and had my house swept and went on with my life. Then I stumbled and allowed myself back into a "relationship" with him and Jesus' words are 100% true about you needing to keep the swept house clean or it comes back times 7. I hurt myself so bad getting back into a relationship with him that I became an angry person and had to get past that. Now it's been almost 2 years since I've talked to him or seen him. Christmas before last he sent an email with holiday greetings I thanked him and left it at that. No more contact until recently he called me and left a message that he's getting married, this month I think.
Now let me get to the reason for this prayer request, and I hope I am not to late. I'd like to ask you all to join with me in praying for this woman he's gonna marry to have and ask for wisdom before she says "I do". I know that God can change people and maybe he has been saved and changed by God and maybe he will be a wonderful husband to a wonderful woman. I hope so but if she has any doubts and it's not to late may she put things on hold and pray it out more and look to see if this man has any fruits to prove his claim to be a Christian. To look and see if he treats her good all the time, to just be sure. The man I knew is just not worth the pain.
Your Sister in Christ,
"Sally"
