if it is possible can you post why you were disfellowshipped?
You know I was thinking about converting...was very close to taking that plunge...but after reading all the crap here in this post I've decided to run like hell and never turn back...
PS I'm telling the elders on you for posting on this evil website, they won't be too happy.
if it is possible can you post why you were disfellowshipped?
You know as a self-acclaimed sinner with hardly a witness conscious[okay half true], I would like just to comment on YO-YO's post by saying whole-heartedly--you can go @$%# yourself...
Where are you YO-YO, please enlighten us with your best dub visage.
i am going totally crazy without him in my life.
i miss talking to him for hours on the phone, i miss spending time with him, i miss being a part of his life.
it was my decision to end things, and i know he still wants to be with me, but i am still torn to pieces.
Thanks Richard, I will e-mail you.
You know it's been weeks since I've seen him, it's makes me very sad. His family call me and pester me to go to the hall, tell me to attend their wed. night bible study at their house,(he'll be there, they state), then he calls me and tells me how much he misses me, and I already know that it is me who'll have to give in and convert if I want to be with him. He's too grounded in the "truth" factor to ever change his beliefs. Although, he hasn't been totally active in years, it's still jammed in his head, maybe a little muttled after all those yrs of inactively, but still a constant thought process.
I have never ever said anything negative about his faith, or asked him to lean over my way.
At one time, religion didn't matter in our relationship, then his family got involved and it totally consumed it.
But how would I SUBTLY try to get him to walk the other direction on JW--IS THERE A WAY TO GET HIM OUT without bad-mouthing his beliefs in a way where he'd hate me forever.
I really do love this guy, and want to be with him, but becoming a witness just seems so wrong for me, just studying I cried all the time, was depressed about everything, could not imagine living a life where all I have to look forward to is the end of the world, I mean what would be the sense of living??
I made another bad decision--I agreed to go over to the bible study at his sister in law's tomorrow night, to see him in person.
I need words of wisdom here. I am loosing my mind all over again.

it-2 244-5 Lie ***
LIE
The opposite of truth. Lying generally involves saying something false to a person who is entitled to know the truth and doing so with the intent to deceive or to injure him or another person. A lie need not always be verbal. It can also be expressed in action, that is, a person may be living a lie... While malicious lying is definitely condemned in the Bible, this does not mean that a person is under obligation to divulge truthful information to people who are not entitled to it. [Emphasis added]
this is the strangest thing that i have ever seen, and i have to ask cuz it's just sooooooo wacky, i'm just wondering what the hell it means: the jw guy that i have been seeing, well, he sometimes would wear two pairs of underwear?????
is this usual to witnesses, or is he just trying to protect his goodies?
or is he just a freak?????
LOL!
If he was a JW at heart he would not be giving you a pony ride in the wee hours of the night...
Sounds like this guy is just too screwed up to make sense of, hey who isn't???????????????

It was my decision to end things, and I know he still wants to be with me, but I am still torn to pieces. I am confused, and don't know what to do. His family has been pressuring me to continue studying to become a witness. The brothers and sisters in his congregation come to my house to "preach" to me,{okay I think they are spying on me), and ask when I will start coming back to the meetings. I have even been invited to the assembly in June. But he still continues to take a passive role in this. It matters to everyone that I am a witness but to him, or so it seems. Although he did tell me, that the only way we could take our relationship to the next stage is if one of us gave in, he didn't say, hey, you gotta become a witness, he kept it neutral. But I have been the only one who has been pursueing the other side of the coin...studying with his sister in law to learn the truth. And it has mentally and emotionally killed me, all of the beliefs and rules and regulations, it seems more like a prison than a faith, they started telling me what was acceptable to wear, who I should spend my time with(not my worldly friends), and when I was gonna trade my 2 door sports car in for something else. It's like all the relgious beliefs that I grew up with were slowly being taken away by tyrancies. My heart felt like it was being eaten away by vampires and vultures, eagerly wanting to take away my soul. It would kill me to be a witness, but it's also killing me being without my best friend. The only person that I could ever say was truly my soul mate. I miss him and feel terribly vulnerable that I will give in just to be with him. I did tell him once upon a dream that I was open to different religious beliefs, so I guess that was my first mistake. I will probably go to hell for even entertaining the notion, But do I convert for him?
well i finally pushed my boyfriend to tell his parents.
i wrote them a letter and told him about it, i gave him the choice to either tell them or it would be sent.
so he finally gave in and told them on friday night.
You've just entered the beginning of the end stage in your relationship with your fellow.
So, now his family knows that he has been intermingling with a worldly girl as yourself, that is a big no in Jehovah's mightly kngdom. I am sure they will give him 2 choices:
1. Risk being disfellowed from the hall, and shunned for life(and death) from his family. This also means the congregation that he has relied on for guideness and spiritual self-worth, he will be a nobody to them as well. Being a JW is like being addicted to crack, he needs it to survive.
2. Try desperately to convert you. Do not give in, it will kill you. Trust me, I know, I've tried to belief their beliefs[brainwashing me] it almost worked. And might still work because of some odd screwed up emotion called love.

One,
Please explain this: BTW woman body temperature is good indicator of their natural inclination ( i really dont know about men)
last night i had the most bizare dream.
i had a dream that i was going to the kh with my mom.
which is crazy in two ways, one i would not go to kh and secondly i never see my mom.
I had a nightmare very recently that I went to a meeting and it was very hot in there and their was fire and smoke, and people who I know are disfigured incubus'. I am there and they won't let me out, I try to run for the door, but there's no escape, no windows. There's a big sign that says FEAR GOD. Oh, they had shovels in their hands. I know sleep with a cross around my neck.
