    This happened to me. Years ago. We were friends for about four months, we kissed once, we were in seminary class together. He gave me alot of mixed signals. A LEADER of the church said he was my husband... I was so immature in Christ. This was 9 years ago. I was so confused. But, God is not an author of confusion, even bought a wedding dress. Smh. I told him I loved him and he pulled back...I snapped out of it after my sister said, a man who loves you wouldn't confuse you. Now, I'm married and healed from this devastation...I heard someone say that your idols speak clearly to you and you think it's God. I idolized getting married. I totally get it. Been there and learned so much 💯🙌🏾

      @@lasheasimmonspogge2435 Your testimony is so compelling! OMG , the Lord used your sister to bring truth and snap you into reality. Many women like me didn’t not receive true love in life so we fantasize about it and we do this for so long that it seems real. It’s a kind of dissociative disorder called maladaptive daydreaming. Your statement that “Your idols speak clearly to you but you think it’s God” would make a great sermon. Thank you so much for your transparency. I’m glad you now have true love. God bless you, Chanel Scott, Laterrias and the listeners of Dear Future Wifey! Lord help us to walk in your truth not in the vain imagination and maladaptive thoughts of our minds. 🩷♥️🙏🏾

    Years ago a lady from my church was 100% sure a man was her husband. They were dating but That man chose another woman who he admitted he didn’t seek God to see if she was the right one..she was just the woman he wanted. I personally believe if God tells you a man is your husband God will also tell that man. And that man will lead the relationship. But we also have free will. That man can decide to not choose you even if God presents a specific woman to him. The lady I knew was so heartbroken when that man proposed to another lady. It was heartbreaking to see her pain. But maybe a year later she met an awesome man who she married a year later. 20 years later they are still married.

      @richardsnipe2471 i thought about this for some time... what if he tested her to see if she had high standards, healthy boundaries, and self-control? A pastor and man of God would definitely need his wife to have those qualities to support him in ministry. I thought about a workaround for how to respond in the given situation: Take a piece of paper and write the name of the person who dared you to kiss them and kiss their name on the paper. It keeps you in the game while respecting healthy boundaries. He probably could not pursue her if her boundaries were not healthy at the time and instead chose another woman to pursue. I think about... what if she had not kissed him and slept in the room with her friend instead? But still showed interest in him in healthier ways from the beginning. I say this from a place of experience. A similar thing happened to me when I was a church involved teenager, and a young man in the church began to pursue me. One late evening, he and his friends were taking an innocent joy ride and looking for something interesting to do. I suggested they come to my place while my parent was away that night working. They came over, and it turned into a game of truth or dare. I was dared to sit in his lap and kiss him. I did it because at that time, I did not have healthy boundaries and standards and didn't even know what it was to have that. I just had a heart for God. Needless to say, he quickly lost interest in me after that night. Without telling me he was no longer interested, he began to pursue another young lady new to our church right in front of me. I figured it out. So I hope God fearing women with low standards and unhealthy boundaries will take note and work on it to pass these type of tests before they miss out on their Boaz. 😉

    This sounds EXACTLY like my story and so many others. This is literally why I wrote my book. It’s about my journey of developing a relationship with Christ all while waiting and standing for a man I truly thought God told me was my husband. Turns out, he wasn’t and he was married and I didn’t know. But it all worked out because I met my husband like the next day after finding out that other man was married. Got married 2 months later after meeting! Now I share this journey on my page and help other women that are under Kingdom Spouse Deception. That’s why women are single for years waiting on a man they think is their husband. Snap out of it!!

      I completely concur. This woman was struggling with delusions. Her romanticized view of marriage ultimately led to her downfall. She targeted a widowed pastor who later found a new spouse. Despite this, she persisted in lingering around him, driven by her unfulfilled desires. How can one profess to love the word yet fail to embody its principles?

      I’m happy she has moved on as well. It’s definitely clear which church she is speaking on. I’m more so disappointed that church leadership would exploit her gifts knowing full well that she had such a strong belief that this man was her husband. I love her redemption story. Seems she was gracefully broken, but I have a heavy side eye to the church’s bishop and executive board. Benefitting from her emotional state despite seeing that she is clearly suffering is nasty work.

      I think he gained some respect for her when she actually didn't have sex with him even though she was in his bed. I think that's why he called her to share something great that happened to him; and when she didn't respond with the enthusiasm nor intellect he was hoping, he put her as a possible bed buddy category.
      I think if he was honorable, he should've called her the moment he realized that she wasn't the one, which was right after that phone call, he should've told her, "I know we kissed and I had you in my bed. I don't want to mislead you. I've found my wife and I'm falling in love with her. Even if you and I were the last persons on this earth, I'd never marry you."
      I'm sure that's how he felt about her.

      Obviously Chanel has both father and mother fractures. She suffers from rejection and abandonment issues and devalues her self worth and value. That’s why it was so easy for her to make such severe bad decisions. Chanel needs extensive therapy with a professional therapist and/or psychiatrist. She’s trying to mass her deep pain and trauma by her jovial behavior. Chanel alluded to such pain, trauma, rejection, abandonment, and parental fractures when discussing her mother, who appears to be verbally abusive and emotionally unintelligent.

But 2 months later, God said it’s time to move on. I’ve been obedient, but sometimes I think back to those confirmations I received and wonder if I shouldn’t give up on my ex.

    This happened to me a couple of times when I was single. Two different men believed with their whole heart that God himself told them that I was their wife. Thank God I met my real husband a short time later. Marriage can be an obsession and I believe that’s how false beliefs come into people’s minds. We are all human in need of God’s help.

Now closer to 50, I fully understand the challenges of these issues and the desire to marry, and even when it's a high-profile person.

    Lesson for me here: Satan's deception runs so deep, flee idolatry, and how far the Lord's grace and love extends to us. He is truly NOT like man.😊
    Years ago, I went to the funeral of a woman who fell in love with her pastor. He married someone else, had children, and she became their nanny. She suffered from fibromyalgia and passed away while "working" in the church. The pastor she was in love with eulogized her as a great "laborer" of God. That was the first time I left a funeral early out of disgust.

    This story is amazing since both God and the man never made any push, commitments, or shared any vision regarding marriage.
    This testimony is a good example of the Scripture that says we are tested based on what is already inside of us. Thank you for being vulnerable. It has blessed me.
    I remember deeply liking a man, and someone suggested that we should go to the church he went to. I knew that was not counsel from God, so I didn't give into it. Although I did attend a class at the church with the hopes that I would see him. Praise God, I didn't!
    I remember a man telling me: "If a man wants you, he will drive from here (Brooklyn) to Connecticut to get you." That statement has been my standard of gauging how much a man cares for me.
    My sister, may you heal fully from this experience. May the Lord also bring you "him" that will love you truly.

    God is truth, He is not a liar. If you say God told you something that did not happen that means, it came from you and Not God.
    So many people are easily deceived and so much time is wasted…it is so sad. We must read the word for what it is and not try to manipulate his word.
    Praise God that this woman has been able to move on. Believing His word means trusting him and having faith that he will take care of us even if we don’t get what we want. He provides what we need.
    One thing she made clear is that she’s not remaining abstinent if she’s with a man. How can you reconcile that with his word if you know it sin and God hates it? This is the lack of trust that many of us have and further keeps us from God intimately. Do not be deceived and think you love Gods word but yet you don’t follow it. God is holy and serious about sin.
    I’m not coming for this woman but this must be said for anyone who thinks this way. Jesus is coming soon. Get serious about him please 🙏🏾

      He was definitely flirting with her and even more than that because he had her not only in his home. He kissed her and had her in his bed for the night as well. Then he'd call and text her regularly. That's clearly someone/a man making moves on a woman.
      Now, I don't think she should've moved there for him and that's where I think she went wrong and kept going wrong. Prior to the move, it was all him.

    This was powerful! Thank you! I have heard similar stories with so many ladies... including me. In my case, it wasn't a pastor, but my childs father. I waited for him to get himself together for 14 years (these years weren't even consecutive because he would disappear for years). It took Sept 11th for us to reconnect and have real conversations. Thats when I finally let him go for good. I have known of a couple of beautiful ladies who thought a pastor was their husband. One of the men barely knew one of the ladies existed. The other "Pastor" was just slimy and kept her on the downlow, talkin' about, "He didn't want everybody in their business". This "Pastor" ended up blindsiding the lady and marrying some woman from another church... after being with the other lady for YEARS. Its spiritually DEVASTATING to believe God told you something and He didnt. It can make a person not know HOW to hear from or trust God.
