It's been a tough year for me so far. My grammy passed away in June and I haven't grieved her properly. It was a JW funeral and that wasn't the platform to do that.

To make matters worse, I caught my boyfriend in a car park with another woman at a petrol station at random. I've been with him for three years, and apparently, so has she. I am heartbroken and I just feel like I can't or don't want to move on. Every day I just exist, go through the motions and can't see a point to anything. I have never loved someone so much and been so betrayed. There's no excuse...he says he's sorry, but there really isn't a good explanation. I think at this point in my life I'd rather get a root canal than go out with another man ever.

I am in counseling now as long as I can afford it.

I'm sure some of you have been where I am. Any advice would be appreciated. I just thought I was stronger than I am.

Cheers,
D

Higher Education

by KariOtt in

jw
friends

you would think that by now the wtbts would encourage higher education.

that way they would get more money out of all their suckers.

oops that will never happen..

diana netherton

Or they could start loaning the money for college...and collect it back with interest!!! That would be a smart move....

Cheers! Here's to lost opportunities and forgotten memories.

by pronomono in

it's 1am and i'm halfway through a glass of brandy.

i've been cleaning out the closet (literally), and reminiscing about old times and decisions i didn't make.

it's times like these i regret being brought up as a witness the most.

diana netherton

Thank you so much for that. I just found out that my boyfriend of three years has had a girlfriend for three years. I busted him in the petrol station parking lot totally by random. I found the strength to talk to her, to make him go away at that point and find out the answers I needed to know.

I don't know how I'll get to the front of the train right now as I can barely move at all but perhaps I can start soon.

Please wish me all the light and love you can spare.

"You knew what the consequences were when YOU decided to leave The Truth. This is YOUR decision and the outcome is YOUR responsibility."

by nicolaou in

how many of us have had to deal with a version of that retort?!

it's hurtful and i suspect - for some - that's partly because of the nagging feeling that our families may have a point.. but do they?.

i was 15 when i got baptised, is it reasonable that as the 50 year old man i'll be on my next birthday i continue to be held to a decision i made as a schoolboy?.

diana netherton

I often said to my family, would you let your kid get married at 15? Then why in the world would you let them make such a "huge" decision like getting baptised. Doesn't make a bit of sense.

Awake and Watchtower - Top 10 Most Popular Magazines of 2013

by jw07 in

the washtowel and asleep magazines made the list.

an over-zealous dub just posted this link to my facebook wall.

I think it is correct that most of these publications end up in the rubbish. When my Grammy passed away a few months ago, I hauled armloads of old mags to the dumpster. I couldn't even be bothered to take them to get recycled.

What qualities do men look for in a woman?

by WildHorses in

i was just wondering.

so, what do you look for in a woman?.

lilacs.

diana netherton

Okay, men...here is a question for you. Are you intimidated by beauty AND intelligence? Would you feel insecure?
