    My name is Nikki, and there are not alot of peeps from my old hall here, at least I dont think. I was in Addison IL, then Elston Ave hall in Chicago, then Libertyville, IL, then my last hall was Lindenhurst, IL. Left the troof in 92.

    My parents were Andy and Cindy...

    I reconnected with more EX JWs on facebook actually, reunited with alot of them, been great.

    After posting here a while someone came on and after they started posting I realized I may have known them. The went to the same KH I did. They were just teens then but to my surprise they got marries. Both their families were JW's and they were afraid of being exposed at that time. I didn't post here for quite a while and recently found out they were pretty popular posters after a while so I guess they "Came out" later.
    I don't think they post here anymore but I did see him post on Englishman's new board.
    It's nice to run into someone you knew that had the courage to leave when their parents were so strong in it.

    Snoozy..who wishes their were more..

    There was a poster on here that I recognized from his name and story. He had moved out of state and sounded very tormented. Haven't seen him post in about a year. I feel kind of guilty for not reaching out to him, I wasn't ready to be that "out". Now I don't care, I'm pretty "out". NMKA

    Someone I did know previously in my old home town was on here. Still is- but doesn't post very often . We kept in touch on the phone for awhile but I haven't heard from him lately. I called and left messages- but no return call . He was really treated badly and DFed from the JW cult - turned in for apostasy by his then JW wife. Has since divorced and moved on in life. I hope he's O.K. - I need to try calling him again

    Yes, and I found two friends I grew up with here. And it's great to be able to talk openly with each other. The only people in my "real" life where I don't have to pretend.
