Somehow, I was never confronted about this. Maybe because few witnesses I know ever saw my FW and I on dates. We met while at University together. One thing led to another and we were dating. My parents never bothered me about having a chaperone, although I told them I had started dating this girl. I was 21, last year of college and still living at home.
Once my sister, who had dated before with a chaperone, saw us on a date together. My car had broken down. She goes, aha, Jehovah is trying to tell you that you need a chaperone. LOL She is a year younger than me and I think my parents had insisted that she have a chaperone. (Yes, I realize probably a double standard because she was a girl. However the fact is that in general women are physically weaker than men.) Anyway my dad came to help with the car and he told my sister not to worry about us. I guess my parents thought I was the goody good child. I only remember running into one other witness while dating her. Another young girl I knew was having lunch with a female friend. She was the sister of the guy who had dated my sister and had been the chaperone on some of their dates. We were at a public restaurant. She just said "hi" and smiled. (I was known to be very shy and she was probably a little surprised to see me dating). She might have had a hard time trying tell on my unchaperoned date even if she had wanted to tell, but I don't suppose she was that kind of person.
We never did have sex, however, there was a lot of other physical stuff. I suppose I shouldn't get too detailed about that. I remember feeling a bit guilty after the watchtower study that went in depth on defining just what fornication and its greek word "por'nia" (sp?) meant. But not guilty enough to tell. I think we were engaged or married by then anyway. If anyone remembers that watchtower, you know they went on to say you don't have to actually have sex to commit fornication.
