    Were they all dates from hell? Any "immorality"? Did you ever "date" knowing the person was never "marriage material"?

    The dates themselves were pretty good....it was the morning after guilt that was hard to deal with

    Hi Min.

    No dates from hell far as i can remember......

    Yep to the immorality ..but only Breast touching ..dont remember going south too often..ok thats a lie...some mutual masturbation etc..all the while i was pioneering i had a Thursday Morning Pioneer Partner,and every week we loved to work rural territory!!!!!!!!.Of course guilt played a small part...at the time i was 100 % in and genuinely believed it all,but assumed God would forgive me as i was a good Christian...yep,i really did think there was nothing wrong with it.Strange really.

    In my early 20,s i was a bit of a Lad dating wise..but again,my spiritual nature outweighed my reputation as a naughty Boy.Then i got my fingers burnt HUGE..i started going out with a Girl..lets call her Laura (cos that was her name)i really wanted to be with Her..then learnt she was using me to make the real object of her affections jealous..ouch Baby,very ouch.

    What goes around comes around eh....

    I cannot help but think that dating among JW's is just like those tiny backwoods communities where everybody ends up marrying their cousin and producing a race of toadstools.

    In Fort Worth we only had our smallish city and nearby Dallas. The pickins was slim to say the least.

    Everybody was tense with glandular imperatives; but, trying to be on our best behavior.

    The intensity of a kiss or grope was magnified a thousand times.

    I'm convinced that only bad marriages, disillusionment and personal ruin comes out of such pressures.

    Why doesn't the Watchtower Slave see the need for organized social events, chaperones, parties, group dates and open and supervised programs for young people to meet and communicate with each other? There has to be a social outlet and a way to evaluate the opposite sex in a neutral way.

    There has to be honest instruction about what is really going on in your body and why you have such intense physical compulsions.

    Instead, it is all made dirty, Satanic and guilt-prone which creates mental illness and very low self-esteem.

    But then, let us be honest, that is what the "Faithful" slave feeds off like a bottom dweller munching pond scum.

    The Watchtower derives its power from making the publishers feel like bat droppings and then converts the guilt into penance in the form of field service to work off the debt.

    It stinks!

    Ironically i only lasted a few more Months in Pioneer service after that......
