  JW marriages: happy/unhappy

  by starfish422 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've been wondering how many jws have gotten married too quickly, without knowing their prospective "mate" well enough, and have ended up really unhappy.

  it always seemed to me that a couple would be dating for, like, 6 or 9 months and get engaged, have a 9 month engagement and be married; often because they bought the "no sex before marriage" garbage.

  i'm sure that there *are* happy jw marriages out there; and certainly being unhappily married isn't the sole property of jws.

  We are soul mates. Hard to imagine meeting your soulmate at such a young age but we did

  Good for you, Mulan.

  I too have found my soul mate. We met when I was 18 and he was 19. We married early, I was 20 and he was 21. I wasn't a jw at the time, that came later. He never became a jw but he stuck by me no matter what even though he didn't like me being a witness. Here we are all these years later happier as ever. Living in a divided household was very stressful! Since I disassociated myself in 1999 our family couldn't be closer. We are now united in every way.

  I know many jw's who married early and are now divorced, some are on their second marriages. I think some jump into marriage to have sex and then realize once the bills start to come in it just isn't fun playing house anymore.All because of the strict dating rules.

  How many have left the WTS and joined another church/group?

  by BLISSISIGNORANCE in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at this point in my life i don't think i could trust any religious group.

  i don't even feel the need to be a part of anything like that right now, and maybe never will.. but i know of some who have joined other churches/groups since leaving the borg.. why do some join another religion and why won't some ever get involved again?.

  what makes us so different?.

  I have visited a couple of churches since leaving the WTS. I don't feel the need to join any other group at this moment. Still too many mixed emotions.

  Ghost Hauntings in Churches?

  by Prisca in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first off, i don't intend for this thread to be a debate about people who believe in ghosts, or whether ghosts really exist.

  this is just a question about reported sightings/stories about ghosts.. last night i had a dream where i was in a church that was haunted by a ghost.

  although the concept probably isn't totally impossible, it is something that i hadn't heard of before.. has anyone ever heard of a church being haunted by a ghost?

  i can't stand when people don't use their turn signals and then jump in front of you and make you slam on your brakes.

  i try to refrain from road rage but i do cuss under my breath.

Oh but even worst...people talking in the movie theatres drive me nuts! If you can't whisper then you should keep your a$$ at home.

  Ahhhh... I feel much better now. Your turn.
