ok time to be brutally honest.. what do guys think of women with tattoo's.
first thing that jumps into your head.. reason i ask is i'm getting my first one next week and was wondering what the general concensus is.. i am definately sure about doing it.
thought about it for years and it took me 6 months to find the design i wanted.
It depends how big it is, where it is, and what it is.
It's purple and black tribal butterfly. Getting it on my lower back and it'sabout 4 inches accross.
For me it the butterfly represents freedom. It's my was of celebrating my new freedom no i am no longer being controled by the organisation.

Just wondering.
Lehaa.

so all the talk of fixing the catholic church and all they are doing is shuffling them off to foriegn lands where they can be pedophiles out of the limelight instead of in jail where they belong... .
sincerely,.
I hate the way he says he has not told there parents because he not longer feels he will abuse. Did he think he was going to abuse before he did it the first time. What crap.
An who pronounced him "safe", is he being treaten properly. Doubut it.
most meetings i went to, children were brought to the washrooms in the back to be disciplined.
often i could hear a child yell or cry due to the spanking given by the parent.
people in the hall would have that look on their face meaning that it was alright to discipline a child by spanking him.
I guess I'm in the minority on this one. I was spanked when I was little, not understanding why I had to sit still. And even though I've had to readjust my attitude and be careful as to the reasons why I had to spank my own kids, I'm glad my parents spanked me.
I was smacked when a child too. I'm fine about it, my parents were good with it and never beat us of went too far. They also told us why we had been smacked too, which i think was good.
I have two small children and i smack them when they are really naughty, and only if I've exhausted all other means of discipline. ( they know the warning signs as to when they are going to get smacked) I too like my parents explain too them why they have been smacked too. I never discipline them though when i feel i'm about to loose it. I give myself a time out, 10 minutes in my room does me the world of good.
I have memories of children being beaten at the meetings, how it a 2 year old suposed to sit for 2 hours, impossible. I found it hard to do and i chose to be there.
When i take my kids to the meeting, which is rarely, i take heaps of stuff for them to do and once they've had enough i take them home. I've definately had enough bu then aswell.
Oh yea, i just discovered a new way to discipline kids. I squirt my cats with a water bottle when they do something they know they're not allowed to do. My daughter was being naughty with them, they were all trying to get our bird. I squirted all three of them and they all stopped and ran away. Think I'll be carrying around a water bottle more often now. LOL.
is there a way to put up audio clips for all to listen to?
i have a few doozies.. man, i lost count of the times they were hammering on "the slave"... obey the slave blah blah and "have faith in the organization.".
"keep repeating the lie, and it will eventually take on a life of its own".
I'd love to losten to them to.
My favourite part of the assembly was when one brother said "If after doing a lot of research you don't quite understand something then just have faith that it is true and one day you will understand it"
Maybe we don't understand it because it's not true.
Any way that was my favourite part of the assembly.
i have a friend of mine, who i have not talked to much for the last 5 years or so.
nothing bad happened between us, just time goes by, and one loses touch a bit.
i have known him for probably close to 14 years or so, and i have always considered him one of my favorite people.
I'm gald for you. It's so nice when our friend see the light and we can finally continue old friendships.
did that gave you the creeps?
for the past three weeks i have been home, on sickleave.
nothing serieus, just uncomfy.
Sorry to hear you are sick.
I know how you feel. Whether we like it or not the JW religion is part of us, it was something that was drummed into us for a long time and unfortunately it has a lot to do with the peope we are today.
We need each other because only we understand what it is like to be us.
i am not going to divulge any names or contact details as i do not what this being taken much further.. i will cut to the chase, i have fallen in love with a jehova's witness.
i am not a jehova's witness... can you see where this is going?
i have been told that her being in love with me is strictly against jw "policy"... now, i have been scowering the net for days now, becomming increasingly insomniate and i have to admit, i have found nothing to support this warning.
I was a JW sister and got involved in a relationship with a guy that was not. It was really serious and we had spoken about getting married, i could not commit, there was to much guilt involved. In the end we both had out hearts broken.
he ended up leaving the state to join the army. Now the reasons that i endede the relationship are irrelevent. I caught up with him recently, we still love each other but a relationship now is impossible.
If i could go back and do it again I would have left the JW religion, and my family(my parents are no longer witnesses), and married him.
Each case is very different. If you want to talk feel free to PM me and i will be happy to answer any of your questions.
just interested!.
when you were disfellowshipped, who was the first person you contacted?.
i'm just about to write a letter to my cousin who was disfellowshipped 15 years ago.. .

i have been in a relationship for about 2-1/2 years now, and it seems that every time we have an argument or disagreement, it usually turns out to be my fault according to the other person, and my upbringing as a jw is always brought into the light, and also my depressive moods, this person knowing background of my exit from the org.
and the feelings it has caused me.
it feels as though they are using this as a "scapegoat", because even if that person comes home in a bad mood, or has to do something that they don't like, and an argument insues, i automatically am made the "bad guy", even though i was previously in a good mood before things started, and am reminded by this person how i must not be taking my antidepressants, or am thinking too much about my past, etc.
and am reminded by this person how I must not be taking my antidepressants,
Been there, my ex (during one of one of our many arguments) told me to get back on my pills. Meaning my anti-depressants. He nearly ended up with the heal of my shoe through his skull and kicked out of the car. (I'm quite flexible and i was driving)
He now blames all of our problems on me because I was the one that had an affair. The marriage was over well before that, he just refused to move out.
