Need way more sex in a relationship and still serve Jehovah

by lovestarved in

i have been disfellowshipped twice, and currently am- both times for sex.

i have a high need for sex in my relationship, and after 3 marriages, keep not finding that need in the other person.

so, i end up going out of the organization looking for it.

Sounds like you've got yourself addicted mate. Welcome to the forum from the UK.

A large part of the problem is you've been having group sex or at least threesomes. You've got Jehovah watching and the Governing Body telling your partners what's good and bad! Maybe even Fred Franz is up there wagging his finger.

But then again ... try being open and loving and you'll probably get enough sex from your partner to keep it in your trousers when other females catch your eye.

When you focus on the "kind" of sex you get when the other person is happy with a "simpler" sex life the problem possibly lies with you?

More importantly, now you're out why not check out fully what it is you want to go back to. We can help.

Thank you!

GB Daniel Sydlik died ten years ago today (on April 18, 2006)

jw
friends

he seemed like a decent fellow.

i miss his talks.

freddo

Anyway Anne B, he's probably providing Public Talk Outlines from beyond the grave. Maybe he reduced the length of them from 45 to 30 mins? Perhaps he can get to work on the CLAM meeting?

Special Talk from the GB?

by punkofnice in

a current jw told me there was going to be a special talk (tm) from the governing body(r) next month.

apart from the usual hilarious jw tv stuff, i haven't heard of anything.. any info any one?

the jw didn't seem to know much either.

freddo

Am I putting two and two together and making five? I hope this prediction is true!

So GB "Helpers" Flodin and Kikot AKA Flo-down and Kickout are in London doing their special zone visit stream to the UK on April 30th and Germany (thanks Crazy_Flickering_Light) gets their stream on May 14th?

So in London it's ...

Bye bye old chap to Full English Printing with all the trimmings.

And in Selters Germany it's ...

Bring on zer Bratwurst unt Lederhozen and take over zer Englanderz printing rezponzibilitiez! Break out zer steins of lager!

what do you think is the main reason why so many young ones are waking up?

by Crazyguy in

seems as though the number of baptisms even for the young ones is down from what people report here.

at my former hall the young ones are all in totally sheltered even while going to school.

expressing thier desires to pioneer etc.

Internet access for early teens is no longer on the family PC in a room where everyone looks over your shoulder like it was just ten years ago.

A relative of mine has two kids with an age gap of ten years. The older one aged 25 had on line access only via the family computer from age 14 - the same year he got baptised. He didn't get a laptop or smart phone until about 5 years ago aged 20.

The younger - aged 15 now who is not baptised and who is thankfully showing a waning interest in becoming a jw had his own smartphone aged 12.

Chuck jwtvorgasm.online in the mix and it's got to accelerate the waking up process!

Im wondering...maybe the GB are truly mentally damaged, not just deceivers.

by sowhatnow in

has anyone by chance read the latest issue of pshychology today?

april issue, article title' moment of impact'.. i havent fiished reading it yet, but it got me thinking, how likely is it that many born in jws [ teens in particular since thats the age these issues start to appear] will end up with these problems mentioned in the article?

i know of a few adults that have this problem, schizophrenia, bi polar, ect.

freddo

Actually zeb, Morris the turd has sons. He crowed in an article about his life that they "make me look good" - which is of course all that GBTV and GBdotorgasm is all about in the same way as a whitewashed grave "looks good".

One Person Baptized at Circuit Assembly

by Simon Templar in

i went to the circuit assembly with my wife yesterday.

i have to keep peace in the family.

there were less than 1,000 people for both the morning and the afternoon sessions.

freddo

I can report from the UK one circuit split over two days.

Yesterday - Saturday assembly 4 baptized 1005 present (used to get 1100 a few years back)

Today - Sunday assembly 4 baptized 897 present (used to get 1000 a few years back.)

And of course there was a "deficit."

A few years back 6 per side was the norm. But it's been lower since the 2014 hoopla died down - one assembly day in 2015 had zero baptisms and another had 3.

So a bit of a bounce back in baptisms, but not to pre 2014 levels. And a bit of a drop in attendance - the lowest I can recall.

I was disfellowshipped because of Satan

by elbib in

during co visit, i took him for a bible study i was conducting.

during the session, the householder said he believed satan was not a person, but personification of evil within us.

i left co to handle householder’s doubt.

@elbib

I guess this was the culmination on top of other things you had said in the past like the 144,000 not being literal and stuff?

Embellished assembly interviews/"experiences"

by ab.ortega in

oh how wonderful those experiences at assemblies and "schools" are - not.

at times it seemed as if these "experiences" were scripted.

the speaker gets criteria in the outline regarding what the experience or interview has to be about.

@ab.ortega

No. That was at every rehearsal I ever went to here in the UK.

Welcome by the way.

My experiences - and I only gave talks at circuit level - were the same as ttdtt's.

I was at a rehearsal for a demo in a talk and waiting my turn and listening to a demo in another brother's talk - and the DO and the CO were there.

The guy being interviewed said how he had stood aside as a MS and later re-qualified. The DO, in front of everyone in the room said it was too negative and tried to re word it so the brother didn't tell that he had resigned. The brother bravely said he felt that wouldn't be accurate and he didn't want to do that.

The DO went as red as a beetroot and said he shouldn't do the part! Then he (the DO) told another toady brother in the room to give a different experience that the DO obviously had prepared instead!

The poor brother was embarrassed and angry but he kept his dignity and sat down and waited for his ride home.

But there was an excellent result. The badly treated MS resigned a few months later and a few years after that the DO got demoted in 2014 to CO when they got rid of the position.
