No offense guys, but the responses here to my thread have been so far off-base and disconnected from what I am saying, that its just ridiculous. Essentially you're not really reading my posts. So I'm not going to bother to post here anymore.

Okay let's get it back on track....Post #7 you said you felt empty. Why? Are you happy with being agnostic or are you such because you are anti-fundimentalist? Deep down do you believe there is a higher power or do you feel jilted? Has this been a problem in your relationship? Has the fact that when you split from your church you severed ties with your family hurt you and your relationship?

quote: I had thought of him as family, however, starting a few months ago. I was hurt so deeply and badly by this; I felt rejected, abandoned, and taken advantage of. I told him later that I felt he didn't deserve me--that I felt like he devalued my contributions and my feelings. I told him, through tears, that he was the man I loved, the first man I had been with intimately, and the man I wanted to share my life with and have children with--and then to be informed of this, was absolutely ridiculous; insane! I felt like our relationship was now "unsealed" and "informal" again.

quote: After all that happened, I became a worse person. I became even more negative, thinking that I could never find the job I wanted, that there was no point trying, that "jobs" were methods of enslaving people into heartless, soulless, meaningless functions that enriched other people while deflating your hopes and dreams. I began working for myself, but I earn even less that way than when I worked for the private industry making $9/hr.

okay i tried my best on these quotes since i dont know how to properly quote them with this site.

i picked these 2 quotes because i felt a connection that you were unhappy due to a job and your former church. the anxious feeling of being trapped again now as you once were. perhaps the church influenced you so much that even now as you live with your relationship it's that fear of being trapped. a lot of it, i think, is interrelated that in the end you push it away so you dont have to deal with it anymore.
