Can A Person Truly Love Some One that won't forgive them?
Can a person every have a full relationship with someone that won't forgive them?

Absolutely not. When the person puts winning or being right above being happy and solving problems, a relationship, or at least a successful one is impossible.

The Story of Mr. & Mrs. Flipper

friends

it was requested of someone on the board via pm to tell our story.

i'll try to keep it brief, for me that's hard.

mrs. flipper was raised catholic and got out when she was 12 because the nuns and cathlolic school teachers didn't like her independent thinking mind.

Interesting story Mr. Flipper. I hope you and Mrs. Flipper have many lovely years together.

attorney kerry louderback-wood's radio interview is now available at www.cknw.com.

you have to set up an account (fee) and go to the "radio vault" (on the site's left side, toward the end).. she blasted them on college, end of the world, misrepresentations in blood, her mother's life & death, blood fractions, hemoglobin, pedophilia, the united nations, coercion/disfellowshipping, and www.ajwrb.org.

What type of person are you attracted to now?

by Layla33 in

i was just thinking about this the other day, about how my ideas of a romantic partner have changed since being a jw.. growing up, i thought i would marry a very upstanding jw, we would pioneer together, do missionary work, have children, see the world.

(never had any thoughts about bethel, though.

) so what it boiled down to was a stepford husband, up tight, not the least bit sexual, closed minded bore.. so now that i have grown up, seen the world, been married (and actually picked a good man the first time, although it didn't work out), i just contrast that with what i am attracted to now.. i like them open minded, earthy, i love artistic types because i am a published writer, hair doesn't matter to me (long/short, bald, etc), challenges convention, very sexual, still like a traveling man.. i am just curious if you anyone else can compare and contrast how their ideas have changed since breaking out the group-think of the jw organization..

Thanks...but I really am not looking. I just know my weak spot! I am pretty much done looking for now.

Good for you. Take a break and when the time is right you'll know it.

Been away for a while - is anything happen in JW world?

i have not been here for a long time?

my wife still goes to the meetings but i haven't heard too much about what is happening.

new light, great organizational changes, is it the religion for me now???

Abandoned

...is it the religion for me now????

There are a number of ways determine if Jehovah's Witnesses is the religion for you. Since the nail gun method and the arsenic method can both lead to death, try the lying method. What you do is ask everyone in your social network to lie to you about everything for a month. If you are chugging away on all eight cylinders at the end of the month, you can handle being a witness.
