Yadda, yadda, yadda!!!
"oh i'm not going to worry about it, armageddon will be here by then!".

you start listening to music deemed "unsuitable for christians".
you pretend to knock on the doors.
you explain a jw teaching to someone and realize how ridiculous it sounds.
...when you tell still in JW's that you are truly happier out than in and they seem pissed off and perplexed by your happiness.
avon lake ohio.
while new mega church being built right down the street!.
That is a beautiful site!!!! Maybe WT will sell it to a church. They sold ours to a church a couple of years ago. Let's see....I can't do any work for a church and it's up to my conscience if I want to go to a wedding or funeral at a church but it's ok for WT to sell a dedicated KH to a church? You just can't make this sh*t up!!!!

You know you are fully awake and done with it all when....
you tell your entire family, it's 100% BS and you don't care if they shun you!!!
its been awhile since i've commented but i come by and read your posts about once a week.
so why do i need a pep talk ?
after almost 2 years into my fade these bastards won't give it a rest constant hang ups on my answering machine and today for the first time in about 6 months they come to my apartment complex but thankfully couldn't get in they did keep buzzing me so they were here looking for me.
We dodged em for years. Didn't answer the door, let messages go to voice mail, never responded to notes left in door, etc.
Eventually they will get the point. If you bump into one, just tell them that you are doing fine and if you need them, you know how to get in touch with them.
You DO NOT owe them anything. Enjoy the reunion and if they piss you off after that, LET EM HAVE IT!!! LOL
from 2012 thru 2016, congregations in georgia and alabama collected funds to build a new assembly hall in south atlanta.
to date, 3.5 million dollars was collected and 75 acres was purchased.
the branch decided that this assembly hall was not needed.
Wait till these crooks disappear "in the twinkling of an eye" (to the Cayman Islands).

James. Wow! So...Jehovah blessed this project? He moved the brothers and sisters to give of their hard earned cash? He approves the purchase of the land? Then a few years later decides he does not need to build anymore?
Active JW's. Think! Why would Jehovah do this to the brothers? Let your yes mean yes and your no....no!
so 9 months before i started pioneering, i had a hot and heavy moment with this player witness who was just trying to string me along and talked to a lot of different girls.
we made out and he grabbed my goodies a few times you know the regular stuff all teens do at least once.
anyways i never saw him again because when i refused to send him nudes he dropped me.
Sorry that you are going through this. Like some said above, "get out." Run don't walk.
We came clean with all of our friends and family. This is an abusive, destructive, controlling cult. It is such a relief to be free from it.
Don't say another word to the Elders or your accuser. If they continue to bother you, let them know you are considering consulting an attorney. The Elders are not there to help you, they are wolves in sheeps clothing. Dirty old men who want to hear to details of your sex life.
hello everyone, i have an on and off again ex who is a jw.
each time her family gets involved and she's gone again.
i'm debating biting the bullet and doing the work to become baptized, so we can follow through with our engagement.
I would ask myself the personal question. If I did not have the girlfriend, would I want to get baptized?
