  Limping on two opinions - mine and theirs!

  by atypical in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been lurking at these sites for a while and have finally decided to post.

  forgive me for not wanting to give any clues as to my identity, but i am still struggling as a fence-sitter - knowing how i feel but not wanting to be cut off from my family and friends.

  so my meeting attendance is sporadic; when i go to the meetings i am told "i'm worried about you" or "where have you been, your wife has been coming by herself".

  i started fading two and a half years ago... and i have never been contacted once.

  not even a call to see how i was doing.

  my mom is still a diehard dub and doesn't even think it unusual.

  2. humour

  if i am not allowed to watch porn, then my wife certainly may not listen to bon jovi.

  bon jovi makes girls get all giddy in the loinal area.

  Rising gas prices, field service, meetings

  by Jourles in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i recalled the other day how several years ago my wife tacked on over 60k miles in about a year and a half on one of our cars while pioneering.

  it still makes me ill thinking about it.

  then i began to wonder how the recent gas price surge is affecting normal field service activities and meeting attendance.

  Do the Witnesses Still Go Door to Door?

  by tfsm in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have lived at my current address for approximately five years and i have not had any visits from the witnesses.

  i don't really want any but here's the deal: i left "the truth" about fifteen years ago.

  i wasn't disfellowshipped or anything and (since i moved to another state) it was a relatively clean break.

  The Mother of all conspiracy theories

  by Junction-Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  ok first of all whenever i get a strong feeling about something im usually right.

  even though for years as a child i was taught the jw doctrine and it seemed to make sense biblically, at least back then.

  but yet i had a strong sense of doubt, but it was nothing specific i could point the finger to, just a gut feeling that there was something wrong with the jw religion.. now here's my main point.

  2. relationships

  i recently signed up on a couple of internet dating sites.

  i've been talking with one guy for about a week now and he's asked to meet for coffee.

  i'm a little nervous and wanted to hear how many others have tried this.
