Thanks to everyone who answered me. I feel alot better knowing that there are so many people out there going through the same thing. I really wished I would've researched this sooner. I've always know I would never actually join this group but am hoping that he will make up his mind what he wants to do. We have just reached the point in our relationship where either we are going to get even more serious or it's going to be over. At this point i just need an answer from him, he's had plenty of time to consider his options. More than enough actually. I do have one question though, at what point to JW's become baptized. Is it like other religions where it is done while you are still young or is it a choice he had to make after growing up a little. I don't know if he was baptized or not and I hope by asking him that, then i could start a conversation about his religion.

Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone can help me. I have a boyfriend of four years who is a Jehovah's witness. I had no idea what it was when i met him. His parents recently got divorced and he is living with his mom who is Jehovah. Untill recently he hasn't really been going to meetings and last year he even had christmas with my family. I have only really met his dad after the divorce and his mom will have nothing to do with me. I haven't met any other family and that bothers me as he has met most of mine. This year we have talked and talked about christmas and i think he's not happy i got him a gift. He's always taken it in years past and just said i didn't have to get him anything. I am afraid for our future together. We both love each other but we don't have anything close to a normal relationship. Am i wasting my time or will he become more compromising with me after he is away from his mom? I'm not too sure how involved he actually is, he was asked to commit and he said no. Also, when he was 17 or so he got caught having sex with another JW. I would appreciate any advice or information and would love to hear about your own experiences. You can email me at [email protected] or im me on aol (LittleStar1157). Thanks for listening.
