Do you have a "Confidante"?

JH

Do you have a person, thats very close to you that you can reveal almost anything, your joys pains, just about anything to?

Or, do you keep all your worries inside and deal with every emotion you have by yourself?

Yup...Mom and Dad are dead to me... never had a decent relationship with my siblings since they were all so much older... been burnt too many times by blabbermouths so don't have any friends that I could trust to really open up to... Hubby is too fragile to handle most of the things I'd like to get out... so, it just kind of builds up in there...

If there is a god, and I get to talk to him/her/them at some point, I'll have a lot to say then... mostly 'why' questions...

I never really had one until I met my husband. To some degree the people at Al-Anon and ACOA. JWs are such blabbermouths. You might as well announce it from the platform.

I thought I did until I expressed my doubts to my wife. Now we have a 'don't ask, don't tell' policy about WT doctrine. I am a very private person so it is extra hard for me to open up....

It's spread among a few people nowadays. There is no "one" person who's there with me on every level.

Well, my wife is the foremost one. Nobody on this forum yet, though I've found one possibility. I'll just see what comes of it.

My diary is my confidante. I tell her every little thing.

I used to tell my mom everything, until she started blabbing it around the entire congregation. It seems to me that JWs can't keep secrets, they always have 1 person they must tell things to, and then that one person has another, and before you know it everyone knows. Like was said, might as well just announce it from the platform.

Now, I keep everything pretty much internalized, 'cept for a few things I've posted on some message boards whilst trying my best to stay anonymous. It's sad I can't share my doubts about religion to the people that matter most, because I know then they'll kick me to the curb.
