  Disfellowhsipped for 7 years...

  by HereIgo in

  2. experiences

  i remember around 2009, there was a scandal going on involving 2 families in my cong where the husband in one family was having an affair with the wife of the other family.

  this resulted in pregnancy and subsequent disfellowshipping.

  what was interesting to me though was a comment made by a co from the platform.

  Feeling very lonely

  by BlackWolf in

  2. friends

  the past few months i've been feeling really depressed and kind of hopeless.

  the few people that actually were a little bit friendly to me at the hall recently moved away, and i'm feeling like more of an outcast than i already was.

  every meeting i just stand by myself by the wall and nobody cares, i feel really lonely and unloved.

  Any other teenagers on here?

  by BlackWolf in

  2. friends

  i'm 16 and it seems like most the people on this forum are adults.

  i would think since most teenagers have tablets/smartphones there would be more on here but maybe not?

  it would be nice to meet some other young people.

  Who would you like to hear of leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses ?

  i'll start off with this one:.

  some years ago when i was formulating my exit, i employed for some time an ms brother from another congregation.. i'd had a couple of young "worldly" lads work for me but they proved unreliable as they used drugs or alchohol and consequently would'nt arrive at work and such like.. so when i was was contacted by this brother and spoke to him and heard he'd worked at the australian bethel for some time on construction and wanted an opportunity to learn the trade of bricklaying ,i thought ,"great someone to finally trust and be reliable".

  he was in his 40's at the time and he worked like a trojan ,was honest ,really likeable and interesting ,could play the classical guitar beautifully ,had a beautiful family.

  TTATT is a process, and it’s going to take time. There are no Short-Cuts.

  i talked to a close friend that served with me as an elder for a few years.

  he allowed me about an hour to explain why 607 is not the correct date for the destruction of ancient jerusalem.

  i showed him all the scriptures needed and i showed him the wt magazines that proved it.

  i need some advice

  by SpunkedTeen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  yesterday i finally confronted my mom with my research about the wtbts being registered with the un as a ngo for ten years.she didn't get angry at all but she says she doesn't want to doubt the organization, i asked her if she realizes that if this is true what it means and she replied by saying she believes she has found the truth and that satan wants me to turn away from the organization.she also said that apostates make these very clever looking articles to lure us away.i told her that i avoided all apostate websites(which i did) and went straight to the un which confirmed it.i asked her to do her own research on the matter but she refuses to saying she is not going to live her life having doubts about the borg.

  i don't think i can wake her up ,especially if she doesn't even want to think that the organization is not "god's earthly organization".. i was thinking that now that she knows about my doubts i can disassociate myself but as i only turned 18 this week and have nowhere to go if she kicks me out the house(my entire family are j-dubs) i don't know what to do to move forward from this point .do any of you have any advice for me ?

  thanks in advance..

  i dont think ill be able to leave the organization,you see i have no close friends in or outside the jws and my entire family is part of the cult,if i leave my mom and the rest of my family will be heartbroken and i dont want to be the reason they are hurt.

  im not particularly close to any of my family members but i still care for them.

  i could really use some advice because i have no one else to turn too..

  Its really weird

  by SpunkedTeen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i tried testing my family by mentioning that a member of the gb was summoned to appear in front of the royal commission and i found it really weird how they reacted.they dismissed it saying its just satan attacking the 'truth' and i could not believe how ignorant they are.they all think that the organization did nothing wrong or even that jw's abuse their children.
