This was written by Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes. Andy Rooney says:
As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's
usually something more interesting. A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.
Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.
A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 30. They always know.
A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Women over 30 have more tricks up their sleeve in bed. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.
Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.
Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you... Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.

hi everyone, well im totally new at this but i thought i would give it a go anyway.so here is my story(short version).
well i have been with my boyfriend for 2yrs now and the last 4months he has started to get back into witnessing.
i have said from day one that i dont want to be one, but i did attend a meeting, memorial and some studys i did this for him to see what it was all about.
Hi aussie and welcome to the board,
I hate to say it, but you will never win over the watchtower. In my opinion, find someone that will devote himself to you, and not to a bunch of senile old men that change their minds as often as they change thier diapers.
I totally agree with stealth on this.
Really it isn't worth the pain and agony.
Check out other posts about other non JW women being with JW men, your heart may be wanting to be with him but you will always feel unhappy with the way he is wiith the JW.
IMO break it off you will have a better life.

after reading the thread by truthseeker regarding the district convention, and realizing that they were trying to tell people, especially young ones, that the "truth" is "exciting", i just had to ask you, did you ever feel that the "truth" was "exciting"?
i never ever did..
The only thing i found ecxiting was going to the DC and meeting new people, working at the DC.
I loved going to the quickbuilds as well. Not that i ever did much but 'talk' to the young brothers
I mainly found it draining and not making any sense.
Helen
were you still a jw, or did you just leave?
what did you expect from a church, was it like you thought, etc.
what happened afterwards, especially if you were still a jw.
Imagine being in a room full of people that believed there was a special banana in a box on the altar, and though no one was allowed to look at it, they all completely believed it was true. And further, they believed 100% that the banana was going to give them eternal life someday. They sang songs to and about the banana, became teary-eyed listening to someone talk about the banana, and sincerely invited you to join them in their worship of the banana
It was eerie for me the first time though i had been to a few weddings and funerals in other churches, but never for a 'service'.
The first time i went was just before christmas last year was hung over and tired, felt really awkward as our car was parked out the front with our bisiness name all over it and the KH is only a 1/2 km away.
But i just listened and it just was the same as going to a KH and listening to the same dribble.
Helen
if you did - then happy birthday - belatedly!
what did you get up to?!
!
Happy Birthday
i have been dating a very committed jw - he spent some time out of the organisation after a divorce and about a year ago has been granted a fellowship again.
i absolutely adore him - and what is there not to love!
he is the most kind, sweet and lovable man i have ever met.
I married a non-JW too though me not being very comitted to it all. My mum tried to convert him and he came to a few meetings and memorials, but that didn't last.
Honestly i would say RUN!!! As much you may be in love with him you will have nothing but heartache and be torn into 2.
With the decisions of birthdays christmas and all the other holidays it may be fine not for you to worry about them but what happens when you have children will you subject to them missing out on all the activites and all the other ones like giving up extra sporting games association with friends them having to go to the meetings being a subjecive partner.
There is a lot to consider don't make a light decision.
