  help appreciated...any success or failures at truly conscious efforts to make new friends after a life in jwland? As a very social person i still only seem to have ex-dubs as my new friends...

  as a jw...at least if you were social...you could walk into about any hall and find other social jw's you could become friends with...yes they are conditional...perhaps more so than other friends, but i did have some great friends there and i still miss them.

  since my wake up....then departure....now df status....i realize that i have had only seven or so real friends and five were found here..... five are fairly local, one is far away, and one is an old high school friend i have reconnected with (lives a thousand miles away).....and i have met some nice people through these friends but they are more aquaintances than close friends.

  the bar scene did not really get me anywhere with guys or girls...and i tried meetup.com but as of yet have not connected with anyone....so what worked for you?

  Ready or not, Judgement Day is in two weeks--

  by moshe in

  - and believe it or not, some say the rapture is coming your way on may 21st.

  harold camping is still standing pat on this date for the rapture- then on may 22nd, millions of people left behind on earth, who are weeping and wailing, will begin to be killed by god.

  however, he is not giving any refunds on may 22nd, if his predictions fail to come true, to contributors who took out their life savings and sent it to his ministry.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9acwnhkvoo.

  Did anyone try to go to the high school prom ?

  by Pitchess Co-Gen in

  i remember being a high school senior and wanting to go to prom ( i graduated from high school in 2003 ), but prom was forbidden when your a jw teen.

  i even said to my parents if i took a witness girl would it be ok; they actually said yes.

  i found a girl ( yes she's a witness ) to go with me, but here's the kicker she agreed to go.

  Charlie, one of my favorites too. If anyone wants to really see Lennon's soul...good place to start.
