  Fine, I'll start...

  Why is it men think it is attractive or cool to put a fake set of testicles on the trailer hitch of their truck?

  Why is it the bigger the pickup...the smaller the "package" on the Dick inside?

  I'm in the south...cut me some slack...

  i've been reading through a lot of the posts and have to say, things are looking bad for me....i am looking for a bit of support with something that looks like an all too familiar topic:.

  non-jw dating a jw.. my currently disfellowshiped jw is a 30 year old divorced father (3 children).

  we have been together for 2 years.

  Take a look at my post history. My last relationshiop self destructed for other reasons, still coming from being a part of this organization. If you are together he will have to be dishonest about it. They will pressure him to go back to his ex, and if he stays long enough, odds are they will succeed. You may have to read quite a bit of informaiton to figure out how this organization has this much control over his life.

  Your only hope is to do what you are doing. Cut him off all the way, play their game back on them...because it does work. If you yell at him or try to talk him out of it he will see it as a sign he's doing the right thing.

  I'm truly sorry I cannot give you more or a better answer. I can absolutely relate and am fairly sure when I say this is as hard for him as it is for you. He doubtless feels his children will have thier eyes pecked out by birds (not kidding) if he doesn't do this.

  But for you, know you will be ok, you do not want to be involved in this organization, even for love. There are some things that just cost too much.

  i had to come here and post about this.

  my parents who have dutifully shunned me for nearly 9 years had the nerve to ask me for money.

  it wasn't for food, a car payment, house payment or anything like that.

  It's been one hell of a day : (

  today started off good, it's mother's day, i get breakfast in bed.

  then i'm outside doing what i want to do, getting our trailer ready for camping season.. what i thought my hubby (xjw_b12) was doing in the meantime was wishing his mom a happy mother's day, but he came out of the house and was a little on the off side.

  instead of what i thought was he was doing and calling his mom, he caught a call from his mom instead, advising us that his uncle passed away on friday, by taking his own life.

  Did we become JW because we wanted someone else to do our thinking for us?

  by Rod P in

  ask yourself the question "do i have the kind of personality that is attracted to a strong person or entity that speaks with authority, and is very assertive?".

  most of us just want to follow the leader.

  it makes us feel protected and secure.

  It is the path of least resistance to follow. Look at what you lose, especially if you are raised in the org.

  I am soon to be "no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses" because I think for myself now.

  i just got word from my family that my grandmother died at 5am this morning.

  it was her wish to see me once more before she died, i have a flight to see her at 10am tomorrow morning.

  it was the only thing i could have hoped to do for her before she died, and it couldnt happen.

  He'd better start out by answering a LOT of questions before he gets to the JW's...
