Why can't I just get over it and move on?

The most common response in a situation like this is, in time you will get over it. Been there and that doesn't help the hurt at the present. Time does do it and that will varie with everyone. Being more active may help even in new interests. A different mindset might even tell you, enough is enough, and you just move on. It will happen.

Who and what would you have been if not for the JWs..............
by fifi40 inabandoned got me thinking about this is an earlier post, when he said along the lines of 'he wished he had never had thw whole jw experience'.
i also remember reading recently on another thread how one poster said their creative talents were stifled.. so now i am pondering what life woulda/coulda been like...............had i not had jw parents................in my own case i was very bright at school and excelled in maths and english subjects, but i remember zero encouragement from my parents for all that i was acheiving, or to pursue any type of career.............so maybe i was destined to be a journalist, an accountant (or maybe not)........i always liked the thought of acting, but guess that is most kids dream and i was also drawn to my fathers vocation, that of training racehorses but being the fourth child and having three older brothers my dad didnt take this very seriously.
i also love doing old houses up and interior design, which whilst i have done for my own personal use never considered as a career...................and then there is the latent writer in me just bursting with a bestseller.. oh my!!

Oh my!! I want to be everything.............................
I was never allowed to set a goal for my future. I really could have been anything if I were allowed to go to college.

Your Opinion On Airing School Killer On TV
by minimus init seems like there's a rash of copycat killers itching to get media attention.
do you think the media goes too far with detailing such atrocities??
?

They gave the killer to much publicity. If they never said much about him, he would have gone down as the nobody he should be.

Make a break. No doubt your brother will come to you to find out why. Then tell him your reason.
As for your brother and his wife, there is a song called "When a man loves a woman",, listen to it a couple times.

One night stands
by Crumpet inhow do you stand on one night stands?
and why?
i was really against them and said i never would again.

But I still want to be hugged, kissed and ravaged occassionally. And I want to hug, kiss and ravage back occassionally.
My definition of passion. I like passion and looking back to the few one nighters from my early years there was no passion. I think it's easier to exert passion with someone you have known and had a good relationship with.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: IT'S OK TO CRY
by nvrgnbk incrying doesnt make me any less of a man, said the 1-12 commander, lt. col. morris goins, who tears up as he recounts how one of his soldiers drowned in a canal, trapped in his bradley fighting vehicle.
to not show emotion, youre an idiot, or youre living a pipe dream.
if someone were to tell me not to show emotion, id hit them in the lip..

Now I know how you guys feel when a woman cries and you don't know what to do! lol
If my wife cries, I don't know what to do. My first reaction, I cry with her.
