Dear CW,

Your story really touches my heart. You see, I'm a 40 year old man that married into a JW family 18+ years ago.

I'll tell you it has not been easy. My wife was not babtised when we married and this one fact makes a huge difference. Also, I think there is a difference between how I'm treated and how you would be treated, because you are female. Even though I'm not a JW, I am still recognized as the head of my household. I can get away with things you couldn't. Like when my oldest son was approached a few weeks ago about starting a bible study with an elder. I said no and because I'm respected as the head of my home, the issue was dropped. However, make no mistake, the elders will keep trying.

The man you feel in love with carries a lot of baggage. If he is babtised and he pursues a relationship with you, he could end up loosing any relationship he has with his JW family.

If you begin a bible study and it touches your heart and you really believe what the JW's teach, then maybe you'll want to become a JW. However, if you read sites like this or the books suggested by other posts, you will never become a witness and your relationship will be in big trouble.

My advice? Become more famliar with the teachings of the JW's. Do reseach on your own and find out what you believe. Make this decisoin seperate from the decision about marriage. Put your marriage off for at least a year and give yourself time to explore what you believe.

I will tell you, I pray every day, that my wife will open her eyes to truth about the JW's. I think being involved with the JW's has hurt her emotionally and I worry about her spirtually. I very much miss celebrating holidays and the season between Thanksgiving and Christmas really gets me down. I don't celebrate the holidays because it is easier to forget about it than it is to fight about it.

My marriage has been a blesing to me. I love my wife more than anything in the world. But, our marriage would be stronger, if we belived the same the same way about religion.

this is what has been happening with us lately.

we (my husband and i) have not been to any meetings in over a year.

the elders have stopped by quite often (once they stopped by and they were here from 10:30 12:00, they left the others in their car group, out in the car the whole time!!

What strange things the WTBTS does in the name of Jehovah.

I understand how you feel. Its like being held hostage to this organization. My wifes family is also all in the "truth." At least you and your husband agree. This is one thing to be thankful for.

Whats really funny is how they treat people like me. I learned some of the "truth about the truth" before I took the big plunge. So now I'm just known as an unbelieving husband. I can associate with my wifes family and I'm treated just like family. But, if I had found out about the truth after babtism, I would not be welcome.

Didn't Jesus say something about the Phariees follwoing the laws of men and not the laws of God?
