  here is my naturalized and humbled opinion and intention.

  have a beatifically beautiful day!:.

  i believe it to be a truism that the nature of the universe is indifference, to us.

  As a DUB, what did you do and hid so as not to stumble anyone?

  by megsmomma in

  i was thinking of all the "concious matters" that you could do if you wanted, but would not tell anyone so you wouldn't get in "trouble".

  one thing that came to my mind is when after having my baby, i wanted to join weight watchers...there were two meeting places to choose from...one close to me and in a church....and one quite far not in a church.

  well, i went to the one in the church, always worried someone would see me(but i didn't really think it was a big deal) so, what did you all hide?

  Impossible Situation?Of Course it did not work!

  so i agreed to have a look at all this jw stuff just to save our relationship and after all that iam still not good enough!

  well iam sure this is not a surprise to all you wise people here but i still dont understand....i never did think love conquered all...but ....he feels that as he is having doubts it must be wrong..i asked him what was more important-what i believed in or who i really was as a person?

  he said i just dont understand...of course it was most important what i believed in and he cannot see himself living his life with anyone who is not fully in the truth!

  Are YOU Basically The Same Person Now As When You Were A Witness?

  they say "the truth" changes people from nasty, wicked people to meek, honest hearted "ones".

  now that you're out of "the truth", are you back to your old ways??

  did "the truth" ever really change you??

  I have thought about this often....I feel like I am even BETTER than I was when I was a dub. Then I think about the things I would get DF'd for if I tried to pretend to go back. Tatoo's, drinking beer,swearing,watching any movie I want,sex(any way we want)with my husband,holidays,going to a worldly church,not accepting things just cause they say so,worldly friends, basically...not feeling guilty for being a normal person. (They hate that!)

  Well....sometimes people start to think what they have is "too good to be true", or think they "don't deserve the happiness"......and they sabatoge the relationship. If that is the case with him, then I would advise you to just give him some space, but maybe send a card....let him know you are there for him if he needs a friend, whether he wants a relationship or not. I hope he isn't sick or anything like that.

  If he is pushing you away because he has some sort of "relationship issues"...then he won't come around and your one more step closer to finding a true love!

  Hang in there....I know how frusterating it is to wait on the right one....and recognizing it when you finally have it.

  The secret to a staying together is....staying together. (Something my g-pa likes to say)

  Can you give more details? Like how long were you seeing eachother? How well did you get to know him? Do you think he was showing you his true self?

  I feel like I owe the success of my relationship to us both being open and honest and we love to talk to eachother. A great "game" we came up with while camping is "truth or truth". You can ask anything....but, you better want to know the answer, cause you can't get mad at the person for telling the truth. (It's kind of a stupid game now though....we end up asking things like "Tell the truth....did you really like the new slippers I got you?")

  I hope in the end....you get whatever makes you the happiest!

  When I was 11, I was at a beach and digging through the sand and found $20.00! It was a THRILL! I bought all my friends ice cream...after asking if I had to give it to somebody.

  OMG....I can't believe I had forgotten this.....I was robbed. It was right after I had gone through a miscarriage and my hubby lost his job, which meant we were moving from Texas to Ohio so he could work for his dad. We closed our bank account and I had most of our money in envelopes with lables....Gas;food;last month rent; ect. Well, I had to go to the store and I was really in a daze, so when I had put the stuff in my car, I accidently left my purse in the cart. I realized a few minutes later and went back....the purse was turned in with out any money. What a really bad day.

  I have never been robbed, but I have a gimpse of the feelings you must have. I lived in an apartment complex with a few little laundry areas through out the place. We were in between 2 of them...but I always used one of them the most. Well, I had started a load of towels and then asked husband to go put them in the dryer and he came back saying they were not there. I was LIVID! Those were all my towels....and SOMEONE else took them and now I have no towels! Well.....he was at the wrong laundry house, and I was so relieved to have my towels. I would be furious in your situation. You have had a few run ins with real jerks. I am sorry!
