  i've never been a jw, but know someone who is.

  well as from my earlier posts, my jw gf told her parents she wanted to marry me last saturday.

  they gave her the guilt treatment about not being a good jw and how marrage to a non jw is a sin etc.

  and when i saw her monday she said she could not marry me anymore.

  Hi Robdar, The only thing I can think of was he always ignored me, never said hello to me for no particular reason. He never really liked me or my family es
