  Could an EX-JW Dating Site work?

  hey!

  since the "in" and "active" jw's have their dating websites, what about us?

  at the moment, i see myself, at a future date, feeling most comfortable with someone with a similar background, someone who understood the issues left over from the experience of being a jw.

  OUTLAW, oh yeah? Well, bikerchic and I are gonna have to pay 3,000 looneys (aka fake dollars ) for tree removal (approx 6 cords), and we don't even have a fireplace.

  So you can just go sit in your truck and be warm...you and your game-winning ball.

  There's obviously more to the story...but perhaps the preludes have some value.

  He's an Oompic, if there ever was one.

  Yeps...although lately he seems to have become preoccupied with a bunch of emoticons...but then that's what happens when you live where no man should live!

  Well, in my own experience, JWD has been a pretty darn good ex-JW dating site! That's how I met bikerchic, and there was a spat of marriages that happened in short period of time. I remember Simon jokingly suggesting that JWD should charge a match-making fee! LOL

  imho, it's no different than any other way you might meet someone: Size them up, make a decision, and take your chances.

  That's life.

  OUTLAW's probably out celebrating his remarkable shot by collecting his special Penguin popsicles.

  I may lose my wife because of Disfellowshipping

  have only been out of the organisation for 2 months and the wounds still run deep.

  particularly hard is the fact that my wife and 8 yr old son are now divided in our beliefs.

  we cannot go out as a family with our old friends like we use to.

  I won't even pretend to be able to answer to your specific situation, as every such case is relatively unique. However, I will offer my own experiences in this regard, and you can take them for what they are worth:

  My first marriage (9 years): I was df'd for apostasy, and within the year she developed a relationship with another JW (an elder), and shortly after I was reinstated it became apparent that there was an adulterous situation. She went with him.

  My second marriage (17 years): I was again df'd for apostasy, and within two years she told me to leave, on threat of having the police evict me (on the advice of certain elders).

  As painfully chagrining as it is, I would have to say that if you are df'd, your wife will leave you, and your children will avoid you (I haven't talked to mine for 5 years, even though I've tried to contact them).

  I wish you the best, in a bad situation.

  OUTLAW's shot lifts Blazers on road

  Portland gets its first victory away from home this season by edging Memphis as the forward comes through at the buzzer

  FACTBOX • The Blazers

  Tuesday, December 04, 2007 JOE FREEMAN The Oregonian Staff

  MEMPHIS -- After everything the Trail Blazers have been through during this young and trying season, you half expected to see players and coaches popping open bottles of champagne and sipping bubbly in the visitors' locker room at the FedExForum.

  This victory meant that much.

  JWD Outlaw injected a dose of hope to the Blazers on Monday night, scoring the team's final seven points, including a wild game-winner at the buzzer, as Portland defeated the Grizzlies 106-105 during an edge-of-your-seat thriller before 11,317.

  Think of it: A shot from Penguin land all the way to Memphis, TN...wow, who woulda thought?
