He decided to become a Jehovahs Witness and told me I was going to burn in hell for having premarital sex. With him..... :noway:
hahahahahahahaha i actually bust out laughing in work at this one!! x0 -
Back when I was 16 I was dating a guy (also 16) who dumped me for his Aunt who was at least 25 years older than him. The whole incest thing just grossed me out.
Sounds like you dodged one hell of a creepy bullet there!0 -

That is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
ESPECIALLY unbelievable since JW's don't believe in hell........ :huh:
Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in hell fire. If he said this to you, it might have been that he was still learning their beliefs and was confused, or you misunderstood him. They do however, follow the Bible's teaching to abstain from sex until married (or to start abstaining, if previously sexually active, once a person decides to follow the Bible's teachings), which happens to be safer physically and emotionally...no unwanted babies for a single-parent, or STDs, embarrassment, regret, etc.
WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG.
There are COUNTLESS studies that showcase sex before marriage is integral to healthy intimacy during marriage. Plus this completely skips "contraception" and "safe sex"... you just jumped from "abstinence" to "AIDS BABIES." STDs, unwanted children, and all those other wonderful things you slapped across "premarital sex" are easily avoided with SEX EDUCATION.
Not to mention it's incredibly heteronormative to think that marriage is the only way someone can have a healthy, committed relationship.
If you're going to believe something, fine. But make sure you're believing it for VALID reasons, hm?
I never said it was the ONLY way to avoid those things, but was simply pointing out there are positive aspects of choosing to abstain until married and if someone chooses that for themselves, they should not be chastised for it. I never put down someone else's beliefs in my post. I also never said if they were or were not my own beliefs, but was clarifying that the intial posting was inaccurate about the belief of Jehovah's Witnesses. Have a great day!
Sorry, that was a royal "you"--not you personally, but anyone who would espouse those thought processes.
You didn't point out that those were "positive" aspects... you explicitly said "safer," a comparative term that means what you wrote is better than premarital sex, which isn't an objective truth. Actually, all of the things you just responded with you DIDN'T initially say. Perhaps you should actually say what you mean then instead of grouping things generally and continuing misinformation that has resulted in so much "abstinence only" failures
Thanks for the passive aggressive "Have a great day" though!
(This is passive aggressive too!)
I'm a Jehovah's Witness and yes, we do not believe in hell fire. Also, having sex is a sin if you are not married or if you are married and having sex with someone else besides your mate, you are committing adultery. It is funny how this system of things, which is currently owned by Satan, says it is okay to fornicate and commit adultery. The Bible states that it is wrong. This is Jehovah God's law, not man. Duh! Read Revelation 12:9.
"owned by Satan"??? Don't you mean Santa? Duh!0 -

because his girlfriend found out. LOL
( i didn't know either)
HA! That happened to me too! We only dated for a month or two, it just drifted apart no break up, then a few months later his girlfriend comes on his msn (this was obviously a while ago lol) and we found out at the same time! Lol0 -

wearing a pretty swimsuit (one piece even!!) when I was on vacation with my family.
When my boyfriend of 2 years called me while I was away one night of the vacation, I told him what we did that day, including swimming, touring, etc. He asked if I wore as swimsuit. Uhhh, yes...? He got so ticked off, and said he didn't approve of me "showing off my body for everyone to see." The only people at the pool were my little brothers, parents, and and an old couple.
So he said if I wear the swimsuit again, he would dump me. I told him we were going tubing tomorrow, and I sure as heck was wearing a swimsuit for that.
He said, "I'm officially dumping you" hung up, and that was that. Oh, except that he kept calling to leave messages and curse me out- saying that I should be the one to "fix this relationship." He became a total stalker and the security at my college had to intervene. :noway:
Dodged a bullet there. Now I'm dating an awesome guy who loves what I look like and thinks the more I show off in pretty clothes, the better. 0 -
So we grew up in a small town. Worked together at the same little job while in high school and after graduating. He was always so "out of the blue" He asked me out by walking up to me one day at work and saying, "So what movie are we going to see tonight?" I was like huh? So I played ball. We had a really good relationship...til he decided that he wanted to join the Air Force and didn't think it was "fair to make me wait" for him even though I said I would.
I guess that was his way of leaving me..I finished it by letting him know how much I hated him for being a wimp and not being able to just say he didn't want to be faithful while gone and he replied by saying (for the first time) that he loved me. :huh: HOW DOES THAT WORK?? lol.
So fast fwd a few years later we still talk off and on, he would msg me on fb and ask me to text him or send him pics or blah blah blah. I finally see a thing on fb that says he got engaged. I was like :noway:
Low and behold, about two months after this engaged thing pops up, i get a msg from him asking for my phone number again and saying he wants to see me when he comes home to visit his mom (i still live in our hometown). Saying he couldn't help himself when he sees a photo of me, he just wants to see me again
I politely responded with hell no i wont be your last fling before you go get married! If ur thinking ur making a mistake, i wont be the one who helps you decide and be the cause of another woman's pain. Karma is a b!tch and I'd rather not have her knocking at my door!0 -
For slapping his best friend after the guy backed me into a corner at a bar and screamed at me for talking to some random guy who stopped me on the way to the bathroom. Nevermind that this "friend" was telling me I should find someone at the bar and get laid, and that the guy who stopped me asked if I would be interested in his friend and I was explaining that I was flattered but in a relationship. Oh, and let's not forget that this guy then slapped me upside the head as I exited the bar. I didn't even get a chance to react to that before a group of guys exiting the bar behind me decided they didn't like what they just saw.
Yeah, I got home and the next morning dude told me he just couldn't date someone that would hit is best friend. But it's okay, he was a total douche and both his friend and him ended up moving in with his mom because I was the only responsible adult in the group that could afford rent and such.0 -
I dumped a guy that I didn't realize I was dating..... yeah (that is what it's supposed to say) lol
We were in HS, we hung out a lot, but we had never kissed, never held hands, never went on a date or anything, we would just hang out at his house and play video games. I thought we were just good friends, heck, to be honest I thought he was gay...
So one day he came into where I worked (which he did a lot, my boss really liked him) So the three of us are standing there talking and I said, 'hey I'm not coming over Friday, I have a date" And he looks at me and says "so I guess that means you're breaking up with me?" I said, "I didn't realize we were...." (how do you reply to that???) and he said whatever and left. My boss cracked up over that and was like "You just broke his heart, how could you have not known you were dating him". lol
YES! I went with a friend to a Perfect Circle concert on Valentine's Day- on the way he asked if I realized we'd been dating for almost a year. Incredulously- I looked at him and told him we weren't dating. That was an awkward night!
As for getting dumped:
My college boyfriend of 3 years dumped me when I graduated, for being a "pothead loser"- despite the fact that I graduated college with honors, was president of multiple organizations, very socially involved, and had a full-ride scholarship to graduate school. Obviously- I'm a loser....0 -

Ridiculous; by that logic no one who has ever waited for marriage has a good sex life because they didn't "practice" beforehand. To me, that sounds like a way for people to justify sexual promiscuity, no matter what your opinion about premarital sex for religious reasons. I do not believe in premarital sex and my husband and I have a wonderful, intimate, loving, fulfilling, healthy sex life. I had zero experience until him and neither he nor I regret it for a moment. Nor do I feel as though I am missing anything. In a committed relationship, sex is just as much about your feelings for your partner as it is about the physical aspect of things; it's got nothing to do with how practiced you are.0 -
Being to large down there, and to forceful with it. She said she needed a break from it.0

Good for you. Some people value good sex as an important aspect of a strong relationship, though. It's nothing to do with being promiscuous, not that there's anything wrong with that outside of a relationship. It's about exploring every aspect of your partner and finding out if you're truly compatible.There are COUNTLESS studies that showcase sex before marriage is integral to healthy intimacy during marriage.

Notice how amusing this thread was until some idiot turned it into a religious debate??? :devil:
My ex used to use me as a human punch bag, black eyes, broken nose, pushed me down stairs and broke my coccyx, broken fingers etc. He dumped me because one day I finally had enough and got up from the corner and burst his nose. moron tried to press charges too. :explode:0 -
I was dumped once because she liked my brother more than me. And when he heard that, he freaked out and wanted nothing to do with her socially. I love my bro. lol0

Quote: "I like my other girlfriend better. Sorry."
...Cool.0 -
I was dumped once because after sex I got up and put her jeans on and did a sexy dance. I think she was mad that her jeans fit me. They were tight and bulgy in the crotch though, so who knows.0
-
Not putting up with his cheating. He was cheating on me with a woman who was moving to another side of the country in a few weeks. So his response? "Why does it matter? She'll be gone in 2 weeks and it'll be over with"........WHY DOES IT MATTER? Really?? Dumbass men.0

I'd seriously kill for a bigger *kitten*Once I got dumped for my best friend... because she had bigger boobs
BUT even though she's no longer my best friend and still has bigger boobs.... she also has a bigger *kitten* :laugh:
I WIN!
I should add that this was all at age 14, I started dating my now husband when I was 15.
I can honestly say that I have never been dumped for anyone with bigger boobs or a bigger *kitten*......0 -
My best friend dumped my first boyfriend for me, in 8th grade-- On a three-way call, while I listened in and pretended not to be there.
Ah, memories.
HAHAH must be the age -- my 8th grade BF got his best friend to call my house -- and left the message with my dad during dinner. LOL
I broke up with a long distance guy cause when I was in town for only a weekend, he decided to go out with his best friend (who's wife was away that weekend) to go see strippers - instead of seeing me. Class act, that one.0 -
Before my weight loss journey I was talking to a guy that said he didn't want to see me anymore because my arms were bigger then his!
Uh, yeah.
Needless to say, I am now 40 pounds lighter and married..meanwhile he is still on dating websites.0 -
I once dumped this complete *kitten* (for cheating on me and otherwise being a dispicable human), and he made himself fall off of a roof and pretended a head injury that caused him to "forget" that I dumped him, so I had to do it all over again. He was such a drama queen, and always doing stupid, reckless stuff like that.0

Not really a dump but a ridiculous blind date. I went out with this guy who is a doctor at NIH. We sat in a Mexican restaurant drinking beer and eating chips and salsa and then got a cupcake at a nearby shop. He spent the whole time talking about how smart he was and then later says, "Hey, you're ALMOST as smart as I am!" Then he got offended when I cut the date short and didn't kiss him. He was all like, "But I bought you a beer and a cupcake! I should at least get to first base." So I told him that even if he bought me an entire meal, he's still not invited to the ballpark.0

I once dumped a guy because he claimed he couldnt feel his hands. He definately could though... :huh:0
-
I got dumped for WOW. Or well, I dumped him because of WOW, and he told me he'd been wanting to leave me to have more time to play.
Months later (with no communication) he had a friend drive him an hour (drunk) out to my house at school and tried to break in. Thank goodness the new guy was there! (We weren't dating at that point, but are now and have been for 4 years!)0 -
This thread just made me lose my faith in humanity. Good job, internet. Now I can never have my innocence back.0
