  hello everybody...my daughter (in-law), whyamihere/brooke, has been at the hospital all day with her little boy, 1 yr. 4 months old...who has had such a bad case of the flu that they had to hook him up to an iv for fluid.

  he was sick all last week and then was getting better...then took a turn for the worse yesterday.

  can't keep anything down.

  How do you know when your spouse is cheating on you?

  by Thegoodgirl in

  2. relationships

  okay, i know this is personal, but i kind of like the annoninimity of the board versus asking my friends who are all also friends with my husband.. my husband went out of the country with a group from work this weekend.

  i was supposed to go but had to cancel due to other stuff.

  it turned out only 4 ended up going, my husband, a guy, and two women.

  wow....I see red flags in your marriage. (sorry to say that to you)

  My first JW husband cheated on me (several times) and before he told me, my "gut feelings " already did. Sometimes we can love someone too much and not "allow ourselve to really see what is happening".

  I tolerated his affairs, because I loved him. But sadly, I loved him more then he respected me and our marriage.

  Allow him to feel what he did is ok, and you will see more red flags soon. Your self respect will diminish to feelings of worthlessness.

  Once the trust is broken, you can never go back to the precious state you enjoyed.

  Be true to yourself....Take care of YOU....you are worth so much more than a husband that acts like a teenager with no responsibility or conscience to his vows to you.

  hugs,

  Why remember the bad treatment?

  by Joker10 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are people who have had bad experiences and don't look back.

  but many people on this forum remember it and post about it almost, if not, everyday.

  personally, i've had my share of bad moments.

  I think that Scully's comment about why remember the bad treatment, quoted with the best scriptures ever, is right on

  Spiritual abuse is just as devastating as: emotional or physical.

  A person can have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from Spiritual Abuse as well as emotional and physical.

  If you aren't compassionate to listen to someone when they are suffering, WHO will listen to you when you are suffering when YOU want them to?

  Remembering our spiritual abuse and talking about it is a way to "heal ourselves". We were once in a religion that we thought was the truth(tm) yet that religion never let us speak. We were told to never talk about "negative things"...yet they were the catalist for those negative things by the spiritual abuse they brought.

  To be able to talk about those negativities gives validation to that experience. Once validation has been received, healing can begin.

  Well...you don't have to let the elders come by for a visit. IT is your right to go to a meeting when you want to without being quizzed.

  (((GBL)))

  I am so sorry to hear about your nan.

  When I was 14, they gave my Mom 1 week to live, finally figured out she had cancer (after being sick for 2 years)...She lived her last 3 weeks in the hospital.

  My Mom was a JW and raised me that way. I can honestly say that some of those teachings helped me buffer her death. Like knowing when she dies, she is out of pain. As you know cancer patients endure a lot of pain. The resurrection belief helped as well. I was so close to my Mom, and I wanted to see her again.

  As for you and your Mom, although your belief systems are different (you are agnostic)....just listening to your Mom and letting her talk will greatly help her. Also, after your nan passes....Your Mom may want to still talk about her...let her do it. It is her way of grieving and healing.

  I can honestly say as a JW...I never grieved properly. JW's don't encougrage proper grieving. There are times that I sit and just cry that I lost my Mom when I was so young.

  I know this is a very stressful time in your life and please know that many positive thoughts are heading your way and for your Mom too (I sure hope the JW's don't take advantage of this highly emotional time in her life)

  hugs,

  4-1-05 WT Galileo and Catholic Church: Lessons to be learned

  by blondie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i won't go through the whole account of galileo; he believed what his eyes told him, not the church, and died under house arrest.. .

  the wts has these comments:.

  because galileo rejected an interpretation of scripture based on greek philosophy, he stood condemned!

  Blondie:

  The WT "traditions" or "policies" are more important than what is written in the Bible........They are no different then the Pharisees in Jesus day.
