    High five, ASINAC

    Back atcha sister. ( though I would probably miss your hand and just look silly )

    Those are years we will never get back..... all becasue we were obediant to a few old MEN (and I use that term loosely) instead of learning to trust ourselves.

    Waited. I was 18 and he was almost 21. That was in 1987. Divorced in '95. I'm never going to get married again so just enjoy f'ing around with friends.

    Not married yet, but I was a good little boy for the Borg. I really didn't cheat. Every other JW ex-friend of mine cheated, though.

    So now it's weird to be 24 and behind the curve when it comes to that. I'm working on fixing the monumental dry streak, though.

    Not in my ex-congregation! Everybody where hanky panky there! From elder's daughters to elders with other elders wifes! Every 6 months a judicial commite. And those are the cases that known!

    Bluecanary your comment is dumb because rather than decide who to make marry based on something important like if the person is honest, supportive, have a lot in common with you, wise, intelligent, insightful, helpful, cheering you up win your sad or mad, faithful, etc. You overlook all that and choose sex as the deciding factor as to if he makes a good husband or not. You sound like you're using the logic of a 15 year old instead of an adult.

    Blue Grass - being sexually compatable is exceptionally important. Plus you are being extremely judgemental and "supid"

    With a great measure of pride ..yes me did wait...but judging by unfolding events and hearsay I would guess that 50%

    nowadays do not. What really shocks me is cases where they said they didn't want to spoil the white Kingdom hall wedding so like

    a month or two later they confess after the fact. (Still get to keep all the gifts but clear it with God (JC)

    We waited .....I married a Jw convert who had led a very promiscuous lifestyle. Her comment on our honeymoon re sex was..... just the same with a bit of bible thrown in
