  Boyfriend force me to study the bible or no marriage

  by MuslimWoman in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  my boyfriend, who is a disfellowshipped jehova's witness, asks me to study the bible for 3 months or he won't marry me (i'm a muslim woman).

  he loves me and really wants to marry me but he is doing a passive blackmailing: if i don't study for 3 months, 1 time per week, in my home country, and without him, there will be no marriage... as a muslim, i believe the bible is god's word so i look at the bible from time to time and would be happy to study with him.

  but the fact that he is kind of saying "study the bible or bye bye no marriage" is really hurtful.

  Run - he doesn’t respect your right to believe what you want to. You are being given information from his actions to make a decision, use it.

  the news had macy's or some higher end store showing hijabs.

  i made the mistake of showing wife.

  her only comment was it was about time they made some modest clothing.

  I think people should wear what they want to. My problem is people act like if you don’t wear a hijab or some other religiously sanctioned attire you are somehow less than those who do.

  Everything spouted from the platform is someone’s personal opinion. Every book, every talk, everything.

  I celebrate whatever strikes my fancy at the time. I always get flowers on Valentines from my husband. Christmas - sometimes we go all out sometimes not. Birthdays are usually a nice dinner together or sometimes the casino 😮

  Engaged Couples Living Together

  by ILewis in

  my question is this.

  is it wrong for a jehovah's witness to allow an unmarried couple to live together under their roof?

  same room, same bed, they are allowing full on cohabitation.

  Mind your own business. You aren’t the morality police for the world. You make decisions for you, they get to make decisions for themselves.

  The book burning has started

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  don't know if this is a global thing but i've just been told by a pimo member of my old congregation that a min servant has been given the task of destroying all old books/literature in the kh library prior to 1992.. could be the elders (or even one of them) on a mission to stamp out dissent as my ex-wife used the same reasoning to her elder dad that i used in my jc: rutherfords books containing failed predictions.. anyone else heared anything?.

  the ms who's been given the task is a company man.

  no hope of him keeping them or selling them on ebay.. they have some russell books in that library too.

  See why it’s easier to just burn the books?

  Wives With Unbelieving Mates

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i knew many witness wives with unbelieving mates who pretty much led a double life.

  “my husband says i have to go the workplace christmas party.” or my mate tells me i have to make a thanksgiving dinnner.

  or “ my mate insists i do things in the bedroom that i know the watchtower has talked against.

  I just can’t see anyone allowing an organization to have that much control and input into your life - probably the reason I am no longer a witness.

  I wish he would stop tweeting. But I am happy with the economy and tax reforms so far. I max out my 401k, take every deduction permissible and still wind up paying nearly $30k in just federal income tax, and I am not anywhere near being a 1%er. My company is also one that is giving money back to the employees due to the tax reform bill. So far so good, if he would just shut up.......😀
