very personal and yet it happens way too often, but would you forgive and if you did, how would it change you and the relationship?.
or is it over?.
abr.
Don't understand why some can forgive if it's just sex as long as they love you. Self says, "if you love me, then wtf. Is this how you show it to me?" Some might say it's just f***ing or that it was just a tangent and I don't understand that either. Perhaps I'm naive. Perhaps I've made bad choices. Both probably.- twitchtwitch - this made me wonder - well is it loving to expect someone only to ever have sex with you. Isn't it more loving to allow a measure of freedom. We only get one life and I know if I had to spend it having sex with the same person since I was 16 I'd have died of boredom by now. However I dont see why my desire for multiple partners shoudl exclude me from a loving relationship either. -crumpet
There are those who are meant to be in monogamous relationships, and there are others who need to have the variety of multiple partners, who would feel stiffled with being with only one person. In the animal kingdom, there are animals that have mutltiple mates, and/or have a different mate every mating season, and animals that have one mate for life. It's no different for the human species, I guess.
i've been tutoring this nice esl lady named patrice for awhile now.
i knew she was a witness, since i saw her studying out of the revelation book, so i kept my guard up around her.
somehow, though, i recognized an uncited passage from the nwt ecclesiastes in a paper, and i mentioned that she really needed to cite passages from the bible, just like any other book, so she used the odd witness citation.
''I appreciate that you feel the need to convert me because you believe that what you are doing is life saving,
but I do have the intelligence to investigate religions, don't you think that there might be GOOD REASONS as to why I chose the religion of my father and not my JW mother?
I really do not want to discuss religion with you. I am not here to be preached at, I would really like to get back to teaching you english.''
hi i just came across this site can someone tell me is this a forum for ex-jw's or anti jw.. thanks.
Active JW's post here, as do ex-JW post here. Everyone is welcome.
Welcome ayhra!
i drove by the kingdom hall tonight and saw only 12 cars parked in the lot.
five years ago there would have been at least 30.
Not to burst anyone's bubble, but it is a tuesday night, so perhaps it was a bookstudy group there only....
sorry!
ok this is kinda twisted.. a brother in my old hall, used to always complain that he got the 'bad' bible readings.. for instance, he got this weeks reading - it include jer 5:8.. who really wants to say that from the stage?.
i got thinking, how many times does the wts have us read that verse when we are in jeremiah?.
out of the 5 times we have read jeremiah in the last 20 years, 3 of those the wts had some poor shmuck of a brother reading 5:8..
Your own sons have left me, and they keep swearing by what is no God. And I kept satisfying them, but they continued committing adultery, and to the house of a prostitute woman they go in troops. 8 Horses seized with sexual heat, having [strong] testicles, they have become. They neigh each one to the wife of his companion
those are some horny men!

to all those men here on JWD that wouldn't even think of cheating, you are a rare breed, and I hope your partners appreciate you!
Likewise to all the loyal women here - hope your men appreciate you too!

My ex did cheat on me, I walked in on her and my best friend at the time, hugging and kissing and only later did I find out how much they were meeting and telling each other they loved each other and so forth, yes it really hurt. I forgave her, kept the whole thing quiet from everyone to save her face and then later she left anyway. I would never do that again.
Sorry that she did this to you, abr,
I wouldnt of been able to forgive that... did she want forgiveness? Did she say she wanted to be with you, and not your best friend? Just wondering why you felt the need to forgive her....
I dont blame you for not wanting to do that again...
I wouldnt either.
let's suppose you have documentary evidence that every miracle recorded in the bible actually.
occurred as written.
would this be enough to prove that the bible can be relied on?
Scully, that elder is an idiot.
Ive heard that (jesus and god are techinically ET's, since they are not from earth) from the platform too, so he isnt original.
