i'm in a relationship now and its my first serious one.
she keeps telling me that she's scared because she believes i'll eventually get bored with her and start wondering how it feels like with other women.
so she wants me to hook up with other girls when she goes out of the country for the fall semester.. personally i dont want to, but this is making me wonder, in the average person's first ,serious relationship, whats the cause of the breakup?
Ummm...any chick that is telling you to do that is doing the same. Sorry but that dog don't hunt.
Define relationship. First boy I liked that returned the favor wanted to put his finger into my hoo hoo dilly. Being the sweet JW then I couldn't imagine letting a boy do that.
Man if only I knew then what I know now. :)

Wonder if this excuse every worked in a judicial comittee
I only joined the Playboy Club in order to witness to those inside the club!
I only laid in bed with the whore to witness to her
I only joined the Swingers Club in order to make it easier to witness to those inside the club I dropped my membership later!
I only used my subscription to PentHouse to read material that might pertain to JW's.
They speaked with forked tongue
my family told me today that at the service meeting instead of the experiences of pioneer's being read, instead a letter from the society was read.
talking about how natural disasters are happening increasingly and that all should be prepared.
food, batteries and water and above all else phone list.

Last time I checked this has been going on for a long damn time and I keep those exact things on hand and have forever.
Sorry if I am posting this again and someone else covered it....I have been off and on reading this summer.
i think some people actually use part of their real name.
i chose mine because i really feel 'in between', in that space where your not a jw anymore but really haven't figured out where you are in life and what path you want to take.
just thought it would be an interesting topic.
Because I can't remember shit.
Plus... whenever my family asks "why weren't you at the (insert meeting, assembly, special talk, memorial) I can simply respond with "Iforget" why.
anyone know this poor soul?

It is sad Mulon....he was so very kind to me during a very stressful period. I was 16 and had gone to the BOE with molestations issues. The bastards 3 uncles sat on my comittee. Yeah THAT'S fair. After an interrogation of what exactly I had done to "tease and lead him on" AT AGE 12??!!
Emshoff was kind and understand. He stepped in and for once the BOE had to shut up and back down. Although what he doesn't know is that he gave me the power to walk away. I realized just how unchristian the JW's really are.
they can't all be on vacation.
i miss their posts.

I like to think of it as Karma. I was more then over the tired grade school taunts and abuse of those who cannot protect themselves.
wife has an interesting opportunity to do this, but...well, it's a risk.
she passed the interviews and was invited to the 4-week training.
thing is, they say that 75% of those who are accepted into training for it wash out.
I flew for a major carrier in the US for 10 years. I loved it and it taught me patience and to be calm during a crisis. Was the training hard? It's no picnic. You have to learn over 13 types of aircraft and be able to evacuate them in 90 seconds or less. I was never a stewardess but I was a Flight Attendant. I was there to save your ass not kiss it. I would get you a coke with a smile in the meantime.
People have zero idea what it's like in the unfriendly skies. I also flew with some real assholes as well so when they make you miserable as a passenger I can almost guarantee they are making the crew just as miserable.
Few are chosen and it's not easy to get thru training. Those who view it as "waitress" in the sky are being snooty and need to get a grip. It's a job with a lot of responsibility and a lot of down time and perks. Money is not the reason to do it. You have to fly a lot of hours to get the bigger bucks and bid the correct trips to optomize your dollar. Hard work but in the end...it's in your blood and we are all family even after retirement.

Wow what a blast from the past. Here's my two brushes with him and you all debate it....
1. He played with my hair and openly flirted with me at a dinner with my elder father and other elders. No one did anything and in fact I am pretty sure my mother would have loved it had I married the old guy.
2. When the body of elders abused me during a judical comittee this man stood up for me. He took on the entire body and was enraged over their questions (did you orgasm?) and took them all to task. It was the first time in years that a brother in charge had taken my side and had my back.
Did he do it for the right reasons? I don't know. But he made them back the hell off and took them to task for being unkind and unreasonable. I will never forget him for that. He was never married and the Emmy you speak of is his sister.
i was told by a reliable source that the organization will be making a "big announcement" at the end of the summer when all the dcs have ended.
has anyone else heard this?
maybe this is the "new light" they have alluded to in recent wt study articles?
OMG Danny...I totally forgot about that picture until you posted it. How awful that it what I was exposed to all of my life. No wonder I was so phucked up for so long!!! Damn them ... it's child abuse.
i have noticed that, in general, there is a "core" of regular posters on jwd that have been members for several years.. however, it seems the vast majority of "newbies" disappear after a couple posts, days or perhaps a week.
how many "welcome" or "introduction" .
threads have we had here where the new member disappears within a day or so, never to post again?
I check this site more often then not. Sometimes more then others depending on how hard my family is trying to get me to do something with the "truth".
I have been watching to see when the article in the next Awake or Watchtower is about faders and how the society is going to try to attack us next. So many here have the resources and ability to keep us up to date about what is going on that it makes the arguments with the family easier. Sometimes I quote Blondie word for word! :)
There is a group of you that know each other well and that can be overwhelming at times. I had an issue some time ago with a regular poster where I took issue with the deroggatory useage of a word. I was blasted in a way only a JW could do. An argument ensuded that reminded me that no matter how far we come away from it sometimes the "training" we have had to sell their magazines and to argue, no matter how ugly, wrong or misguided it is, it's deeply seeded in us to be "right". I came away from it realizing that I need to be more mindful that I don't react and become defensive just as I did when I was going door to door.
