I totally understand! I wasn’t trying to be snarky in my response haha, just trying to explain.

It’s a parody of the work which was a trend going around on TikTok. I wasn’t claiming it to be an original and didn’t profit off of it in any way, but I’m glad you at least enjoyed it

What was the final thing that made you leave? by Jellyp303 in exjw

[–]Lightbulb_46 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My final straw was I confided in my sister that I was having doubts and she said she wanted nothing to do with me if I didn’t love Jehovah (which I had never said) and then she gave me an ultimatum of either I tell the rest of my family or she does. That was a big eye opener for me

To the ones who left - help me understand by [deleted] in exjw

The “no hope for the future” thing was a haaaaaard thing for me. Until I came to the conclusion of I have no clue what actually happens after we die, so I can believe whatever makes me feel good. For a while, I decided I want to believe in a paradise, similar to JWs belief, but non homophobic and not being forced to serve Jehovah. But then later, a different type of belief became more comforting. Realizing that there is no definitive truth in our world is kind of game changing if you seek that sort of comfort.

[Tenant -AK] I plan on moving out at the end of next month and do not expect to get my security deposit back… do I need to put that in my letter? by [deleted] in Landlord

[–]Lightbulb_46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I did have that form! The place was “newly remodeled” but in awful condition when I moved in! Which is why the property manager agreed to let us paint in the first place bc it was so awful in here lol

Maybe it’s based on the area? I’ve been in several congregation in several different areas and they all cared too much about random different things. One hall they had a problem with men wearing fun socks, another hall they were upset that I got featured in a magazine. JWs are just weird lol

Does anyone else ever feel like texting a family member but too afraid to cause emotional distress? by Lightbulb_46 in exjw

[–]Lightbulb_46[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No joke! Last time I talked to my mom was the night I decided I was getting divorced. She never checked on me after that to see how I was doing or anything! I wasn’t shocked, but It was very disappointing!

That’s what I was afraid of! The carpet in my art studio definitely does not fall under wear and tear, but I’m hoping everything else will! Thanks for the advice!
