30How do I flirt, not acting desperate at the same?
by tsunami_rid3r infirst i'll blame the fact that growing up as a witness, it was hard flirting with girls.
most of my younger days were spent at congregation gatherings, and it was hard trying to go up and talk to the girls.
both parents had to know about it, and it was quite a serious issue.

I actually had a great experience growing up in the truth.. very similar to what you described myababes. when we were kids it was just one giant playgroup... social club.. we had a lot of fun together.. all of us kids. It wasnt until we got older that things went bad.

I wish the nightmares would stop.
by Micky4321 indo any of you have nightmares as a result of the jw religion.
i haven't been to any meetings in 17 years but i have nightmares a couple times a month about the whole thing.
in my dreams the scenario will be i am at an assembly or a meeting against my will and everyone is ignoring me and some are glaring at me and i am trying to leave but for some reason i can't get out of the building.

i have only been gone a few years.. but every so often i dream of certain people, either at the kingdom hall or running into them in a public setting.. and the dreams never end good. The other night i had a dream that i was at the kingdom hall and an elder, mind you it was a elder that was like a grandfather to me when i was little.. he was the one who had studied with my parents and brought them into the "truth".. i loved this man and called him grandpa when i was little.. anyways.. i dreamed that he was sitting in front of me.. staring.. just staring. wouldnt say a word. had a nasty look on his face. And in my dream i said "grandpa.. i still love you." and he just stared....... it was a sad dream and when i woke up i was almost in tears.

Baptised, disfellowshipped all before reaching 18
by dinah inhow many times does this happen?
this question just popped in my head while reading the thread about being disfellowshipped.. disfellowshipping is harsh, but to do this to a kid??
kids make mistakes.

same old story... i grew up in the truth. I was baptized at age 15. And allthough i was not disfellowshipped, more than half the kids i knew growing up were df'd before they were 18. So sick.. tormenting children that way. Screwing with their emotions.

What is the official belief about DFed ones?
by sosad inmy understanding is that if armageddon comes when you are dfed, you are dead.
of course there is the standard jw caveat for that "only j can judge".
my dfed brother was committed early this morning to the psych ward.
