@Fisherman - I'm assuming you're referring to Farmers Blvd in Queens? That's what I found in a quick Google search. We stayed in Weehawken NJ and didn't drive in NYC anywhere. I guess you could have seen me walking around or on a subway somewhere. We walked Chinatown, Little Italy, Koreatown, went to the NY Botanical Garden in the Bronx for the Chihuly exhibit, were out around 98th and Riverside, walked Central Park, and took the Lincoln Harbor ferry back and forth from our hotel, if that helps any. Oh, and we went to the diamond district and walked around there some because I love watches.

While there I had three young men approach me and ask what the JW on my shirt stood for. After telling them it turns out that one of the young men had studied and been interested in the cult but felt like something was off. I got to explain to all of them just some of what was "off" about them. It was a great experience.

Set the record straight!
by Colinconfused ini would like to state publicly, on this forum, i no longer hold the views i had a year ago.. with much thought, research, study and logical examination i have come to a better understanding of my beliefs and where i stand on all these issues.. i'm very happy to announce i have returned to healthful teaching of the holy scriptures and i firmly believe that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses is the faithful slave.. sorry if i have contibuted to any kind of stumbling and know that if i can turn things around then there's hope for all who come to there sence.. phill4:6,7.

I love the formulaic dubspeak in the OP. Almost sounds like something written by a hostage under distress. Nothing to see here, everything is great, lol.

Really struggling to go on
by Isambard Crater inso, so much has happened in my life over the years and continues to happen, but i won't go into the details as it would take a long time.. i don't really know why, but i returned to "the truth" 15 years ago.
in 2012 when the tv broadcasting station launched, i started to develop doubts.
the australian royal commission and other scandals made me angrier, and i now don't believe most of the core teachings.. the only reason i show up at 5 or 6 meetings each month is to keep in contact with my parents and a few other family members.. but it's killing me, literally.

Whew, sounds like I was right. Between your family and your husband's you truly are in a cult inside of a cult.
Could you just move? Honestly, I think if it were me I'd grab my wife, make a plan, and basically run away. We would just move and create physical distance so that we could gain mental and emotional distance and strength.
I highly recommend the book Boundaries by Henry Cloud. You two need some.
