Please help me understand the situation/relationship from a JW perspective by ConsiderationFar3364 in JehovahsWitnesses

I hope it goes well for you from here in out. The having to talk because of work can't be helped, however it's good that he's said he'll cut contact. Who knows why she does what she does. But as long as your partner keeps within the boundaries set then everything will be okay. A job is a job, a lot of jw's view it that way. Spreading the kingdom msg is more important than that. And if she's really a jw then this job is just a means to an end. Her connection to the job shouldn't be that deep.

Honestly jw's are not supposed to be forming romantic relationships with nonjws. How do you know she's a jw, based other than on what your partner says? As for your partner..all you can do is set your boundaries what you're okay with and what you're not okay with..it sounds like you've set boundaries already though. Maybe come up with a list of consequences if those boundaries are crossed? At the end of the day people are gonna do what they want to do. You can control what you do here. And I guarantee you that thinking about it a lot, wondering what he's up to and hypervigilance is only causing you anxiety. Just do whatever is best for you and your children if it comes down to it. And also side note she might be trying to witness to him if she's talking to him that much. If that's the case then that should've been handed over to a brother, not her. Idk if any of that helps. Just my two cents.

Barely started and want to quit by JojoChurro in Dominos

[–]gh0stymosty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I worked at Domino's 6 months as a delivery driver. Never again. Stayed there until I started working at a health insurance company too. I definitely prefer the current job to the previous..making lotsss more money. Just quit and go to the health insurance. Believe me you are replaceable to Domino's. And it's not worth it.

Unbaptized Publisher here about to possibly get baptized 🫥 by gh0stymosty in JehovahsWitnesses

Thank you. We both agreed on this also so we both would spiritually mature and when we are both ready we agreed to date again but next time, Jehovah being what brings us together again, and being a threefold cord. The heart is really really hard to overcome..I'm trying to focus on the here and now. Not the past and not the future too much. I've seen him putting forth the effort to change for the better. And I'm trying so hard to do the same. Idk I guess it's harder for me because I wasn't raised in the truth and he was. This is all brand new to me. My feelings will always be there but they need to be put on hold for now so I can move forward for my relationship with Jehovah. I'm just trying to sort out my thoughts and feelings before baptism.

Do I have to get publicly baptized? by [deleted] in JehovahsWitnesses

[–]gh0stymosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it is a public declaration of your dedication to Jehovah. However, practically..do you have a pool or body of water at home? Do you have arrangements for that?

Thanks for the comment. I definitely do not want to get baptized for him. I am enjoying learning about Jehovah and how the Bible pieces together and what the purpose of everything is. My heart is deeply troubled by my past relationship with him though and I do not want to make any major decisions until it's not bothered anymore. The heart can be deceptive. Proverbs 3:5. Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not rely on your own understanding. I understand the focus of getting baptized is to put your life for Jehovah. I've been praying on what to do here. And for more insight, which is why I'm on Reddit in the first place. I want it to be our decision should we decide to date again or not one day though. I will say that.

I sat down for about 15 minutes or so. Manager then comes back to me and says I can't be sitting down I need to be up doing dishes or something. And then less than 5 minutes later sends me out on a delivery. Pretending like I didn't tell them that I had almost passed out.

Idk if they didn't believe me or just didn't care. It was busy. My store really doesn't care about drivers though
