    Hello and welcome to the board, Ruby!!!

    BTW, I hope you don't take it personally when I expose the apostate Governing Body's lies that keep the JW's enslaved to them.

    your one smart chicky to get out as a teen!

    i married my first kiss at 18......stuck with the jerk for 18 yrs.. didnt see the " light" till i was in my mid 30s!
    see what coulda happened to you? LOL

    the pain of losing ones family is so immense that really it would be hard for anyone on the " outside" to understand.the feeling of worthlessness and grief it causes to leave the jw religion. the fact that you did it at such a young age amazes me and you should be so proud of the life you've made without them.

    welcome to the board and please do post more! maybe some of your backbone,self worth , strength and determination will rub off on some of us weaker ones who ride the fence to keep the peace!

    Why would I take it personally Honesty? From a young age, being exposed to my uncle and seeing how corrupt and ridiculous the Governing Body was (is) in its operations, that was part of the multitude of things that sent my on the path to question everything and ultimately realize what a cult it truly is and get myself out of there for good. If anything, I love reading those types of posts. It is not only interesting to read what other people who were once in the organization thought about the inner workings of the GB but great to read that people are finally exposing them. Bring it on :)

    Hi Ruby V. As long as you've been around I feel I'm talking to someone who may already be familiar w / me, eventhough I've not had the pleasure. It's nice to know that you've finally come from behind the curtain. Welcome, officially, to the forum.
