And thx to everyone here. Had a defining time the last 6 months alot due to this place.
P.S Does anyone have a spare liver I could borrow for say...30 years or so. Promise I will give it back
my spouse was df'd 4 years before we were married.
within 13 months she was "re-instated" and by the time we were married had almost healed from the "loving" treatment she endured in her "disfellowshipped state.".
she sincerely believes that her life was enriched by being disfellowshipped because, as a third generation jw she had never "made the truth her own.

I pulled up a random page and thought I would comment on a thread!!! Just so happens I pulled up this one and I totally agree! DF'ing is the best thing ever!!! You can cut out heaps of people you don't have to make chit chat to you don't even like. And then the ones that still talk to you, you can work on because they shouldn't be talking to you anyway so they ain't all that good!!! woo-hoo.
Anyway, it's my first birthday party Friday so anyone in Sydney that doesn't mind coming out west a little - let me know!!!
Happy First Birthday to me, Happy first birthday to me. WTF was I thinking the past 32 years, happy birthday to me!!
scenario 1 ..................when one 'faithful' partner dies in this 'system' and is resurrected and the other survives through armageddon.
scenario 2...................both partners die and are resurrected into the 'new system'.
as members are now dying off this is the reality facing those longterm aged members of the borg.
If I die can I have 10 mistresses - all with a keen desire to try new positions my perfect body will be able to bend into?
so my mom sends me this to me and i hate these jw forward things- .
i want to have a good response when she asks if i got it- because i feel like it has nothing to do with jw's, just a coincidence.
i feel like she thinks i hate god, but it has nothing to do with him- it's the religion itself.
LMAO runningman - I can see him sitting in the corner mumbling "find a happy place, find a happy place" - in vietnamese of course.
a year ago in my cong, an elder who must be hitler's love child, gets up and tells us how some brothers are planning a fancy dress party, a large social gathering.
sounds fun i though!
"brothers a sincere christian would not attend such a gathering, we are warning you not to go near it.
d#$kheads - those rake up your arse elders. My band always played at parties (mostly at my place) or engagements etc. I'm sure things were said but nothing ever came of it. Most young people I knew by the time I was nearly out didn't mind a good time and quite a few drinks.
what should i do with it???.
changeling.
number 7 on the roulette table
last year on this date... i was burned out as an elder, school overseer, book study overseer, etc... my monday nights were shepherding calls, phone calls, judicial committe meetings.
tuesday nights i conducted the theocratic ministry school and usually had a service meeting part.
wednesday nights i had a bible study with a family from the territory.
awesome. I'm with the-borg. I was a crap witness too. Imagine how good you are going to do putting that time and effort into your own life and kids...
one of the key peices of evidence that people sight to try to prove the flood happen is the fact the most cultures have a flood myth or story as they put it.. i was just watching a program that also points out the most, if not all cultures believe in dragons.
even cultures that evolve in isolation have beliefs in dragons and they are all simular though not the same.
just like the flood myth.. so if they believe the flood happened because so many cultures have flood stories.
mark for later
okay, so i'm planning my own birthday party/get-together/something as i want to do something fun for my 21st.. the thing is.. i don't know what to do, besides go out and get drunk.
most of friends... okay the two or three i have... are now use to *not* having to get me anything because they are cheap and took advantage of knowing a jw kid.
but, now i want to do something and i have no idea about doing it.. it stil seems kinda silly to me, to celebrate a day that is like any other day, but i will be twenty-effing-one and i've never been a drinker or party-type-guy.
last year my wife organised for myself and about 10 others from my work to go paintball. It was awesome (another thing not condoned as a witness) but jeez I was sore after!
Next week is my first official birthday party and I have about 30 people coming to my place for a bash so I am pretty excited. I just want a present wrapped in birthday wrapping - I don't care what it is!! I'm getting pretty excited - how sad is that. Got to remember not to go too hard to early...
My advise is get your "wordly" friends/partner to help you out. My wife has had 27 of them so has a lot better idea than I...
that you've accumulated over the years during your involvement with the wts?.
i look back over mine and i don't feel anything.
it's as if the past 34 years were ???.
i just moved house and put ALL my JW stuff in the recycling bin. I had a box full under my stairs. Even my special covered bible with my name on it I special ordered from the U.S.
