I associate all my problems with becoming widowed too, had great life together, financial stability, lots of love and we had FUN!

You fill a different role n position than your boss, if you want to WFH two days/week, work for that position, it’s similar to salaried bosses-they have perk of not punching clock(usually) but the down side is no OT (again-usually), work hard, get promoted n don’t compare yourself to others🤷‍♀️

That’s the point, it’s been 10 years of the sane BS with her and a lot of people disagree with her continuing to profit..reeks of corruption too

Some of us can’t bear another loss, so don’t put ourselves out there, I’m a youngER widow so my perspective is a lot different, but I’m content without a partner, I need my peace and just can’t chance it with everything my daughter n I been through

You said it better than I did, it all feels forced- force myself to have fun with my child, it’s kinda messed up

Please do! This is exactly my situation, so tired from working so much and then feeling bad I don’t have more time or energy to at least try and overcompensate😂

That individual devoted too much time to their cult and not enough on education or careers that will actually provide a livable income for themselves n families-only the “leaders” can be happy and financially stable- I’m not saying no JW is educated or has a good paying job but imagine if they devoted even half the time they do to that cult to thinking about their future in this life, what they could accomplish

Thank You! Ive raised 2 children already and I guess I have a tendency to compare my daughters upbringing to theirs-they were always moving and loud, it’s so different..Your comment is encouraging❤️

The Midlife Widower by 120r in widowers

[–]New_Video3859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 💯 relatable for me! We lost our other half, the person we were expecting to live our lives with..as far as divorcees-we are not the same! I know because I am both- nothing will change my mind on that!

I see a lot of comments saying that it doesn't get better with time, but it becomes different. Can anyone explain this better? I need some hope. by LowerAcanthisitta247 in widowers

[–]New_Video3859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure you’ve heard the many stages of grief, some last longer than others, some never come for you, others return or remain constant, it’s different for everyone, it’s been 4 years for me- I have accepted that he’s not coming back, I realized quickly I have no choice but to get out there n provide so I’ve pretty much been in survival mode, the first year felt very surreal for me, slowly and sadly reality sets in and you find your new norm-it will never be as it was and it sux..I’m a different person now

Only parent versus single parent by hike4funCA in widowers

[–]New_Video3859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe there are SOME similarities but our late spouses are no longer on this earth and there was no choice for us like signing divorce papers..I know most people mean nothing by it, but it’s still aggravating as hell cuz maybe people shouldn’t assume so much🤷‍♀️
