hi...i'm a 18 year old girl from nb.
i've kind of got myself into a bit of trouble and i'm not sure what to do.
i know you are all really helpful and friendly so i was hoping someone might be able to give me some advice.
We actually love each other. The thing is...we had to break things off because im not one.
I am going to have to agree with everyone here. I think you love him more...a person should accept a person for who they are. But, witnesses do not do this. Even if you were to continue your relationship you would always be judged and labeled as a 'worldly' person. Even though I am sure you are a kind person. You are still young and there are bigger fish in the sea.
hope you all have a great 3 day weekend!!
any plans in store?
the weather forecast here in central wisconsin is just glorious for the next few days,

a couple of my favs:.
"loyal love, god is love, may god's love move us to love".
"...like bees that were molested, but we can ever beat them off...".
If you ever just sit down and read some of the songs they are ridiculous! I can't believe that some of my 'favorite' ones talked so much about hate and the 'truth'. They can make anything sound good as long as they put a melody to it.

" A wake up call to thoses spiritually asleep"
Scotman I hope you answer the call then.
If you believe in the 'faithful and discreet slave' then I believe in Santa Clause the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy. Why don't you find out what the very first 'slave' Charles Taze Russel taught. And then tell me that they are right. The light doesn't get brighter....its just new prophecy and teachings to cover up the stuff that didn't happen! If Russel taught anything today that he used to teach he would be disfellowshipped. In fact if we kept to the old light and still believed it we would be disfellowshipped. Yet that food was from God. Does that make any sense to you??
another post from a newbie(who has been lurking around here for a couple of years now).. my story is nothing exciting really.
i grew up pretty much from the age of 3 or 4 in the jw religion.
my parents both became witnesses at that time, then after a couple of years, my mother "saw the light", and stopped going, but my father dragged my sister and i along with him for many years to come.
Welcome to the forum!! ~ I am glad those feelings of 'guilt' didn't make you go back!!! I am glad you shared your story with us and that you found this site!!
i have read a lot of text and story's about people that leave the jw's and this appears to be pretty much all that's being talked about.. i assume you believe that you have done right by your opposing stand to the jw's because you believe you have been done evil (or have seen jw's do evil) and probably right so.
do you people still pray to jehova and study the bible (on your own for once) as to get to know jehova's purpose for us?.
i wonder about this because i fear that you might "revert" back to the common western culture (assuming you live in one because you'r after all reading this over the internet) which i appal and detest in very many of its motivational aspects (that is, the motivations of its people) that are crudely speaking, selfish and ultimately, in the generations long run destructive.
Welcome to the forum~
I think that ex-witnesses or places like this forum will be the most un-biased opinions you will find. We will answer your questions truthfully. Even if some of us have had a bad experience with the JW's we will still tell you the truth about JW's. Our experiences do not in anyway affect the truth about them. We unlike the WTBS have nothing to cover up or a 'reputation' of peace loving people to uphold.
so i just went out for the mail and a folded up tract falls out of my screen door.
they must have rung the bell while i was on the treadmill.
praise the lord for wireless headphones!.
Now that I see those illustrations from those old tracts...it makes me sad. I really haven't seen any propaganda since I left...and now I see it in a different light. The dead and scared people are supposed to be just everyday probably good people and since they are not witnessess they die!!! How sad that I believed that crap!
