.....the truth was not the truth... ?

Muddy waters it was your part about looking at the bible stories book and realising how horrible it was and the fact that it was men approving these things for children. Pretty shocking actually.
I went to a meeting 2 weeks ago and the watchtower was all about porn and masturbation. I couldn’t believe it. So innapropriate for children and on top of that was an experience of a man who was a murderer that came back to the congregation and was made an elder. Are you friken kidding me...:
i was raised a jw and left the organization when i was 18 years old.
many thought i left because i wanted to live a life full of drugs, sex, and rock and roll, which was not true at all.
i left because i realized that these people had no idea what they were talking about and were simply parroting what the, " society " , told them to believe.
How beautiful seeker. Thanks for sharing. I feel as though I’m starting my own journey in a similar way.

That’s an interesting thought Xanthippe, I kind of agree... why not just kill the serpent

So many amazing comments. Muddy waters your comments gave me the shivers! 😮
i want to share my story.
(might be a tad long).
i have no idea where i stand anymore regarding being a jw and where i stand in my marriage.. im 28 years old and the years are certainly ticking by.
Thanks ruby456 it’s definirely worth a try.
Deep down though I know we never had chemistry, or I never felt it with him. I ignored it or I guess I hoped it would grow.
I start counselling in a couple of days so might start couples counselling after that.

“And you want to blow all that away on a fantasy ?
Maybe you should never have got married in the first place
And most certainly not have had two children to your husband .
How do you think he would feel if he was able to read your post.?
Maybe he would be far better off without you .
And if you dumped him for your fantasy boyfriend ?
And what ripples all that would send about your immediate family ,your parents his parents your children and all those close to both you and your husband.?
Think of the consequences and their are always consequences”
of course there are consequences. Of course i shouldn’t have gotten married in the first place. Of course I shouldn’t have had children, they werent planned; or course my husband is better off without me.
What if he read this post?
Well I’ve already talked to him about my feelings.
obviously i wouldnt be talking about it if I was happy. The fact is. I’m not happy, I don’t feel any chemistry. I never want to kiss him, I feel nothing. I feel Numb. I settled and married him for the wrong reasons obviously and I need to deal with it.
im not stupid, I know this is selfish. I know I made a mistake. I’m just now realising what a huge mistake it was and how this affects someone else so hugely as well.
anyway thanks for replying. Yes I’m getting counselling.

Incognito - yes thank you. You are right, I have made most of the choices in my life because of others. Time to start making them for myself, and maybe time to follow my heart for once in my life. But I’m gonna need counselling for a while and some serious thinking. This may be a long journey for me but I’m gonna trust in it and trust that everything will be okay.
Thanks for for the links too guys I’ll check them out 🙏🏻
P.s how does everyone do the yellow highlighted link?
