Hello Everyone,
I don't post often, but I lurk a lot. I have fonund the information to be helpful and encouraging.
However, I'm not sure how much longer I can take being married to the JW's.
I have a wonderful husband, but he believes everything this cult tells him. Most recently he has decided that because the end is near we don't have to worry about our bills. He is naturally a spender type of person and I'm the saver type.
He also seems to think that being laid off of work is a sign that he should do more Field Service and Spiritual things as he calls it. While, I work and he is at home. He is doing stuff at home like ceaning, washing clothes and cooking...I do appreciate this. However, he has caused the debt in our family and I think he has a resposibilty to pay for it. This maybe a situation specific to this hall. In fact, it is not unsually in this hall for the women to have the jobs that bring in the most money and cover the health insurance. These ladies have to work take care of the family and do all the stuff at the hall so the mean can be at home and get together for coffee.
I'm really at a crossroads here. I'm working to support the cult...I'm not OK with that. But I really love my husband.

Christmas weekend with the JWs
by wifeofjw ini have been married 10 years and i have been with my family and the non-jw in laws for christmas.
this year the hubby asked me to go to a resort with a bunch of jws over the christmas week.

Wow Blondie! I did not know about this one. My hubby is a MS and I'm invited to almost everything. I was never a JW and I have debated with a couple Elders at the hall. I think they know I'll never become a JW so they let me ride along to keep the hubby happy...maybe?
I really love the people at my husbands hall. I'm just so sad that they are trapped.

Hi Everyone!
I'd like to get your advice on how to talk with my husband about the generation changes. We have started talking about how it a little. I would like to show him the changes using the JW publications. Note I have some of the bound volumes that I can use and of course his WT library CD.
What do you suggest?
I remain the "wifeofjw" for now.

My hubby said they were told "Social Media" had no spiritual value. Also, the only satan can work thru Facebook.

Yes, his name was Melborne. It was a blue Cavalier. My friends had cool cars and I had Melborne. My whole family started calling the car Melborne. We all smile when we talk about it now.
