ใปDivorced once. Married a 30-year-old woman via Nex at age 20. ใปHowever, divorced due to verbal abuse and repeated domestic violence from the woman. No children. ใปSince then, he has been uncomfortable around "women."

โก
ใปUnderstands that marriage is a national duty, but is very passive due to past trauma. ใปDoes the minimum required as a husband, but does not take the initiative to touch you. ใปWill he gradually open his heart...?

As you are aware, you have no right of refusal. Please sign the engagement documents. After signing, please begin cohabitation immediately as a married couple. You may move to a new residence or use either of your current homes.
