  JWs picking and choosing which rules to follow

  by kristyann in

  2. friends

  does anyone else find that many, many jehovah's witnesses pick and choose which rules they want to follow?

  my boyfriend's parents are jws and i have many, many examples to share with you!

  i'd love to hear if any of you have known of similar type things, or if you know any other rules that jws commonly break.

  it took me a bit of reading through some posts to realize that this site is exactly what i have been looking for, for such a long time!!

  people to share my blown away realization i experienced after i quit going to the meetings and went against my mother!

  it feels great to see people who have gone through and felt the same as i and who have taken the steps to change their life.

  ok, i've been watching the show "inked" on a&e and i think it's a really cool show about tattoo artists in las vegas.

  and lately i've been thinking about getting a tattoo somewhere on my body, possiblely my lower back.

  my sister has one there and i think it's really cool.

  .

  for those of you in a serious relationship, is your partner "worldly", an ex dub, or a current dub?.

  my wife is an ex dub like me.. it certainly helps that she understands why i am the way i am, and the actions of her in - laws.. what about you?

  Doesn't It Suck That You Got Scammed By The Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  think about everything you could have been doing while you were an active jw.

  and even if you weren't a "true believer", think of all the wasted time you put into the "truth"-----for nothing!

  sucks, doesn't it?

  Did being a witness make you lose your social skills?

  by AK - Jeff in

  2. friends

  i am out of the borg now about two years - but can say that i still have no social group in my life to replace them.

  i participate in several activities that i consider social in nature - this board as example.

  i have some 'acquaintances', but no real social structure in my life.

  Whats the worst dish you ever served???

  by Tez in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am a reasonable cook when i can be bothered (as paulj will hopefully confirm) but often resort to quick and easy methods, packet mixes, tins etc.. whereas my parner is a brilliant cook!!

  leave him in the kitchen for a little while and he produces something from scratch that is delicious.

  so today i decided to extend my culinary skills!
