Have we ever considered divorce? | Fridays with Tab and Chance

I don’t know why people go into marriage thinking love is all you need. Love is the icing on the cake. You need all the other ingredients to make the entire cake.. God, patience, humbleness, faithfulness, commitment, self sacrificing , understanding amongst other things!

Total agree. Been married 45 years. 25 years into the marriage considered divorce. We prayed every night on separate sides of the bed. Found out years later, we heard separately from God during prayer, the exact same word to not divorce. Glad we listened. Living our best life.

My wife filled for divorce. The past 6 years I’ve been battling mental health issues, and it hurts to know the life I’ve known for 14 years is coming to an end. It’s lonely in these streets but it’s what’s she believes she needs. Pray for me yall

What I have noticed is that both Tab and Chance are beautiful people. And I hope that they sustain their marriage for eternity.

I WAS MARRIED TO MY HUSBAND FOR 37 YEARS UNTIL HE PASSED AWAY FEB.22,2023..I ASK FOR A DIVORCE 2XS AND HE WOULDNT ..THANK GOD WE WORKED IT OUT..RIP BABY..

I agree. 13 years in now but year 3 I wanted a divorce. My husband didn’t. He asked me if I needed help because he would assist me with getting it. I love this MAN! ❤️( my husband)! Thank God we have been growing together!

Love this. I’m 37 almost 15 years of marriage. We’ve been through child loss at 32 weeks pregnant, left a church (lost family and friends bc of it), then our youngest 3 years old diagnosed with type one diabetes. I have no idea how we do it and we get on eachothers nerves, but we work so well together and we love eachother through the hard times. This is my first long lasting family, bc I grew up in foster care. We support eachother.

I've been married once. I have been married since 1993. 30 years. We didn't choose to have children, we agreed on having dogs and horses. I am a retired paralegal and my husband is a very successful engineer. We have never, ever even talked about or thought about divorce. We knew from the very start that God made him for me and made me for him. That is not always the case and I realize that. We still enjoy each other's company, companionship and communion. We were made to be together. We have had financial resources all along and I think that, sometimes, makes a real difference. We have not had to worry about bills, food, cars, animals, health care or insurance. That took a lot of stress off of us. He graduated from NC State with an EE degree and I graduated from Wake Forest University with a B.A. degree. Education helps people to understand themselves and to understand others. Our marriage has never been anything but a blessing!

At my job the other day I met an older black couple married 64 yrs. They were going on a cruise together. He was Smiling and she was still glowing. They give me hope that one day I will find my person.

I’m divorced and whenever I see couples in long marriages I never envy them, I just admire that they were able to withstand the storm together. Cause I know the longer the marriage the more storms they’ve encountered

I love when Unc referenced to holiness of marriage, and how he truly believes that the fruit that they are harvesting now is because of the work they have done in honor of their marriage. Amen. I wholeheartedly believe marriage will bless your life, if you are willing to work.

Hell I been married 27 years together 30 years. I thought about divorce 200 times. Almost moved forward with talking to an attorney but God intervened every single time. I say all the time my marriage is a God thing and we both know it! Had it not been for God I would have made a decision I would have DEEPLY regretted. Marriage is hard but it’s worth it, kids are watching, people are watching. If you can work it out, work it out.. in God!!!!!

Chance talking about what marriage has done for him how it has blessed him and covered him made me cry. I’ve never seen a successful marriage with my mother, sister, friends, it has all been failed marriages and it has scared me into staying single with no children. Ive always desired a partner but I’m afraid that our union won’t be successful. Im much older now and I have settled with the fact that Im just may be single forever. When I look at Tab and Chance together, I can almost feel the hard work and the fight for their union. They both want and choose to be each others warm blanket. I’ve always wanted someone that I could learn from and grow with. Growing up all I learned was manipulation, revenge, hate, lies and deception. That is what i’ve learned about relationships with men. It has made me most untrusting and fearful. 🥺 I’m 48 years old and I live my life believing that sex is enough for me. I am too afraid to invest in anything further than that. That is my truth and i’m crying as i’m typing this. Y’all say a prayer for me.

My husband and I have been married only three years, together four… but I believe we are still figuring ourselves out. The first year and a half was rocky… with arguments, not talking, and not sleeping together… it was a lot going on. I prayed everyday, then one day, things started to change and we are in a good place. We have been talking more, spending time together, and just having fun. I have used many of the gems you guys have blessed us with in our marriage and I just want to say thank you for being so transparent and honest. Because marriage is hard sometimes.

Thinking about divorce is natural. But our love for each other and our love for God has kept us together for 31 years! Marriage is definitely not easy but with work from both parties, your marriage can last until death do you part! ❤ Pray together, communicate always, go on dates, don't take your partner for granted, and don't forget you need sexual healing too! ❤

My husband and I are contemplating separation, and this episode touched me. I'm hoping for the best. 🤞🙏

My 1st marriage should have been a single date or Group Date 😂😂😂😂. I'm thankful for the things I've learned from that experience though. I THANK GOD FOR MY DIVORCE! The weight was seriously lifted and I was able to further get to fall head over heels in love with ME! My marriage now is filled with so much love joy and appreciation cuz we are adults who know who we are individually and together. I'M A HUGE ADVOCATE FOR DIVORCE, MARRIAGE, AND REMAINING SINGLE!

Divorced saved my life and now I'm married to my best friend. November will be 17 years for us and yes we were at the the table talking about divorce but we prayed, talked, and listened to each other.

My husband and I have been married for 19 years together for almost 26. I have thought about divorce in the past and I’m thinking about divorce right now so please keep me in your prayers.

Yes y’all speaking facts!!! I been married for 24 years got married at 20. Chile them first 7 years was hard. I use to remember how they said it will get easier after the 5th year and I was like okay lord it’s been 6 years what’s going on. We also had 3 kids before marriage and 2 more back to back right after marriage. Honey!!! Them was some hard years. Now we are empty nesters enjoying each other and falling in love even more.
