Hi Yvonne A - welcome to the forum!
Just be aware that the long, long list of questions you'll be required to answer before you will be "qualified" for baptism as one of Jehovah's Witnesses is not supported by the scriptures.
Also, please be mindful of the fact that while the Witnesses may now seem to encourage you to "investigate" what you're learning from them, you will not be even permitted to question much less investigate the teachings once you're baptized, on pain of disfellowshipping and shunning, if you're vocal about any disagreement.
Take care and welcome again.

Are you still the nice polite witness person inside?
by prophecor inor have you shed that polyester portion of your personality?
might that personality trait truly been authentic?
was that really who you were, or a cover because we were required to be so civilized?

I'm pretty much the same. My personality was formed outside the JW organization. What's different is how I view people and so my reactions are different. But the relief also comes from no longer feeling I have no right to really dislike anyone or any right to express what I really think of someone.
Even if I change my mind later on something/someone I felt negatively about, I don't worry about what I may have said, like I did before. I'll make amends as I see fit but I won't beat myself up over anything.

Intro from new member
by lespacino1 inthis site was recommended to me by someone on another ex-jw site i began frequenting recently.
anyway, i am an ex-jw who has been disfellowshipped for about 7 years now.
i was raised as a jw from the age of 4, didnt take to it until i was befriended by a pioneer who was an elder's wife, and she began a bible study with me because my mom ddnt have time to have bible studies with all of my siblings and me, there are 10 of us.
