What?! can you elaborate about what Herd said without sending me to a jw dot org link?
Are the r & f having a problem again? too much ogling the young fit beauties?
hey guys, i've been pimo going on full inactive for a very long time, 5+ years.
pretty happy with the current situation.
over the years, i've gotten lots of grief from the local elders and cos for my inactivity, attending wordly public events and social media posts.
Hell, I might even bring her to the KH to keep me company at the memorial (not for indoctrination, she's already redpilled on JWs).- Would you be willing to be seen walking into a Christian church for Easter service? or are you asking her to do what you yourself would not be willing to do?
As a ubm, (mine joined up later in life) I feel sorry for her already.
If you love her then stand up for her, you shouldn't have to hide away your love to soothe cult members. I understand the difficulties with the business,land, etc... but good grief! does this poor woman truly know what she is getting into?
If you end up having a child with her will your jw family understand you as a family are a package deal? Will you allow people to shun you but expect to see your child? Will you bring your child up with the notion that conditional love is the norm?

if this has been posted before i apologize.
this about sums up what the grovelling body is looking to do!
i saw my mother today for the first time in three years..
she was on one of the witnessing carts in town at a station i don’t usually get off at.
i did today as i was dropping my daughter off somewhere.
These stories break my heart. I can't even imagine seeing my grandchild and not swooping her up in my arms. My jw never, ever believes these stories. He just can't fathom it. How can he be in so long now and be so clueless?
All the best to you and your little one.
hello guys,.
long time no see.
the other day i went out with my sister.
Wear a cross, works like garlic to vampires. No need to say anything. Once they see a cross they won't even speak to you usually, no eye contact, nada... Works for me.
what are your thoughts on that?.
The beauty of dating and marrying a non jw is that you can get away with anything! Holidays? no problem, just say your non jw spouse is doing the holiday and you are merely keeping the peace. That goes for any jw rules and regulations. Just blame it on the non jw spouse and the 'not saying a word' thing, go along to get along......active jw's who have non jw spouses have the best of both worlds so to speak. They get to hedge their bets (or mental imbalances if you will) and survive the big A even if everyone they love gets destroyed and yet they get to live the life of a non jw most of the time. Win win!
Damn nut cases, us ubm's bite our tongues while our jw's do all sorts of things that are not "allowed" but keep quiet so their authentic personality can shine through when no jw is looking. Hypocrites? yep. Learn the dance and enjoy the moments that come along.
Or leave the jw's all together and live your own authentic life without all the jw bullcrap. Life is short, far shorter than any of us realize until we are closer to the end than the beginning.
perhaps this explains why the gb have a fixation with time and chronology.
also why they keep their adherents in a prison away from the real world.
lol.
The overlapping generation thing is beyond silly! In my conversations with my jw about the issue he maintains that, "yes! generations do overlap!!" with much gusto and excitement of being right! Well, no shit sherlock, if no generation 'overlapped' there would be no people, that isn't even the issue. sigh, just quit banging your head against that wall and it will feel much better.
Wait for a new edict from the wt and then see what they believe next week.
so i have a question about a not so spoken subject.
so if you feel inappropriate please feel free to ignore me!
has anyone given a thought about what they would like for their funeral one day?.
Scatter me in my favorite places, have a party. Not a jw, never been but that is what I want. Remember me in fondness and love, I hope. Oh, maybe someone can make a note for me at the party- Gone home, see when you get there, love mom
For you non believers just ignore, I will be dead, it won't matter what anyone believes at that point.
i just saw this new video and am very excited to listen to it but thought i would post it here for any others that also might like to watch it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3305c_cf6im.
Yes! the glassy eyes scared the crap out of me when my jw first joined up. Then I learned about cults and that it was quite normal for that to happen in cults.
