thank you cognac - you are right, sometimes we put too much emphasis on all the wrong things, the stupid little things, and don't deal with what needs to be dealt with.

i know there have been alot of threads lately about what men want, what women want etc, but i'd like to hear what you want out of your relationship, be it marriage, living together, or whatever.
what is it you are looking for in a relationship?
what do you want the relationship to fulfill for you individually and as a couple?.

Dinah - I love you girl! You really are a special friend.
Communication is important too to understand and be understood
Communication is HUGE, I think this is the KEY to a successful relationship.
Thank you all for your responses.

yeah...these laptops are great...until you are chatting with some lady here on skype and she makes you snort a load of beer out you nose laughing....while your jw wife is on the couch next to you!.....and you decide to say fluck it...yes dear...i am chatting with someone....is she a lady?.....well maybe, but she may be a hot apostababe you would nvr call a lady!.
really speeds up the d-vorce conversation......amazing...a damn snort....thanks girl....and you know who you are........oompa.

To a certain extent, we are all pretty messed up in one way or another, many of us are just not diagnosed. Oompa loves his wife, is trying to save his marriage and is not looking for a replacement. He has tried to get her to go to marriage counselling, but he's in a really tough spot right now. I know how he feels, one spouse in, one out and it seems like never the two shall meet. You do what you can to cope, and humour is often involved to get you through the rough patches, and it hides alot of pain. Most people don't see that, just take the humour at face value and assume the worst, which is very rarely the case.

wings - that's exactly what I was looking for. thank you lol
Dinah - I have sat down and thought about what I want. It's something our therapist suggested we do before our next session.
I think two people can grow and change and still be able to keep their marriage.
This is my list -
I want a partner, someone to share things with, spend time with, enjoy all that life has to offer with.
I want honesty, communication, intimacy.
Someone that brings me tea in bed on a Saturday morning from time to time, and I'll do the same.
Someone that "gets" me, laughs with me, not at me.
Someone that respects me for who I am, listens to my thoughts, feelings opinions.
There has to be mutual support in achieving goals and growing as a person.
Is that too much to ask for?

Look forward to your response wings.
Twitch, cheap and meaningless sex is easy to be had, but it really does leave you with an empty feeling. I'd like to hear what you are looking for, when you want to finally start looking.
I guess I would like someone to "get" me. Problem is half the time I don't even "get" myself.
I'd like that too, BFD, and for the most part I do "get myself". I've done alot of growing in the last three months, and it hasn't been easy, and I think the hard part is still to come.
I hope you find someone that "gets" you, you are a wonderful person and deserve that.
JH - your kitty is a lucky gal! lol
mrflipper - I knew I could count on you for an insightful answer. You and mrs flipper seem to have it together.

jws are obsessed with sex and sexual sins.
the elders are specifically told what classification a sexual sin falls into.
touching the breasts, genitals, looking at porn, looking at various types of pornography, kissing, petting-----you name it----it is technically classified so that the elders know which charge they can hit you with judicially.. even if you're married, the watchtower disapproves of certain consensual sex acts.
Then he got suspicious because I was so "H***y" and said I might not be a virgin. Well I was.
Velvetann - I thought I was the only one that had this happen!! I too, was questioned alot about my virginity. It wasn't until he saw the "proof" on our wedding night that he was finally convinced. What, like women don't get aroused etc like men do? Geeze!
