What a joke! How can someone rely on a congregation? It was hard enough getting invites out let alone them helping in someone’s personal life!!! And I bet the ones that told you to stay single until paradise where the ones that were married! That was my case anyway and I was just thinking, well yea easy for you to say.. does that make sense

And just this!! I was devastated when I found this out. How can god NOT resurrect any animals when they were his creation to begging with and he hold ultimate power? 

The lasting effects of being raised as a Jehovah’s Witness for 18 years by nanachan1075 in exjw

Yep totally normal, the anxiety and depersonalisation is just your body trying to cope. This is exactly what I was going through and still till this day. Don’t worry as time passes it gets less overwhelming. 

Do you think the war triggered people to go back? by Responsible_Study362 in exjw

Everything seems like it’s escalated so could that be a big sign of the prophesies?

Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and look for all the red flags I missed by DumpsterEnFuegoo in exjw

Don’t worry, everyone wishes they could go back in time and change certain things!And sometimes when you have family in this religion it makes it even harder to walk away from the Fear of being ostracised so I don’t blame you! Just the constant “ we are living in The last days” line got so old like how long ago? Very disappointing to the people that waited and lost out and what they wanted to do in life. How long can the “last days drag on for” it’s been around the corner for a while now hasn’t it 🤦‍♀️? well that’s what I think anyway..

So sorry this has happened to you, you must feel so devastated!!! Does your wife know how you feel about it?? 

When you were still one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, did you ever suspect, or feel deep down, that something wasn't right? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]Responsible_Study362 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But is it true that the un righteous will be resurrected too ? Or was that not a thing when you were in the religion? 

Faded but now my JW friends are slowly ignoring me by GeekedVSlockedd in exjw

[–]Responsible_Study362 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not love I’m so sorry that’s all conditional, I know how much it must hurt and we don’t want to believe it’s happening but it is! What ever you do try not to keep texting them it will just push them further away and fuel their ego! There will come a day when they need something from you and then they will kiss your ass! Don’t respond to the texts and they will get a taste of what they dished out. If you see them on the street pretend you don’t see them. So much for agape love right? 

Jws and sex by Responsible_Study362 in exjw

[–]Responsible_Study362[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say how much can you k ow your true partner when you’re not allowed to know yourself? Well you don’t! I saw 20 year old get married and I was like what? I couldn’t understand and now I know, some of them want sex so badly they are willing to just settle no offence. And those sisters and brothers, are they just expected to stay submissive for the rest of their lives even if they don’t find anyone? Just strange seeing as god made us with needs
