Hello my fellow mamas in the house, please help me on what to do in my relationship. I met my husband 15 years ago, I was barely 25 the, his wife had just left him with 2 small boys, and I had a 2 year old daughter from an abusive marriage I ran out from when I wanted to die. When my hubby and I got together, he said he didn't want to get married again. His reason was that he has made vows in good faith with another woman intending them to be for life, but that didn't happen because she left him and he was not ready to offend God by remarrying while his fist wife was still alive and repeat the same vows with another woman. 15 years later, we have a lovely house, lovely life and 2 beautiful children of our own. I raised up the issue of marriage after our 2nd child was born because I felt that his fist wife still had more right than I did as she is the legal wife. His view was still the same but we sorted wills out, he put his pension benefit in my name. The next time it was mentioned was when I reached 40 and said I wanted to be a wife not a girlfriend. He said he would think about it but it was never mentioned again. There's no point threatening to leave. I want to get married as we are getting older and I think we both need the security. I'm not bothered about a wedding. I would be happy to just sign a piece of paper. Where do we go from here? What do we do?
