  Why do I come here

  by Luo bou to in

  i believe i have completely freed myself from any borg influence yet i am drawn to this board.

  like many of you ,i lost my wife and family, but i don't believe i can do anything about that, and if i could, i doubt that it would be a kindness on my part to do so.

  they have so much invested.

  Markfromcali said it's much easier to stay in a comfort zone - but not if you really value what is true. This tells me it's people who have some sense of integrity.

  I remember that moment Mark. Having realized that I had been deceived , and the choice that now lay before me. I valued my faith because I truly believed it was the truth. Now that I knew it wasn't I couldn't support or live a lie. It's not me. I did toy with the idea though, 'cause I then realized for the first time the power the WT had over my life through my JW friends family and wife.

  Thanks to all those that shared Robert (an idealist who sometime thinks life would more comfortable if he was more pragmatic)

Like many of you ,I lost my wife and family, but I don't believe I can do anything about that, and if I could, I doubt that it would be a kindness on my part to do so. They have so much invested. I know from my own experience; raised from childhood, baptized at 17, and then faced with the awful realization at 48 that it was all bullshit and I had wasted my life a terrible emptiness and a whole gambit of emotions I had to deal with. It was no picnic . I believe I am alright now at 62 and reasonably sane. At least I think I am. In fact I know I am. I've got my doubts about you though So why do I come here? I am not a crusader although I have helped many ex's. I don't have any lingering doubts about whether it could be true. So why I ask myself what is the fascination ( rhetorical question). I think its because, although I have never met any of you, I can relate to, and understand you .There is a certain report a bond that only we share that those that have not experienced it. do not really understand. Your the only connection I have with a major part of my life. I know I could party with you guys and have a great time So here I am

  I've had car drivers look straight at me then pull out in front of me failing to give right of way. It's as though they were thinking " it's only a motorbike it can't hurt me" Never happened to me when I was driving my 10 ton tip truck though. I wonder why?

  The new house...

  by Aussie Oz in

  2. friends

  well, time for an update.... new house is in the country, just over an hour out of the city.

  we came up and camped in the new house on settlement night...much to the shock of the real estate agent who thought we were joking!

  i mean, it does need some work, and the plumbing is dodgy but works, the bathroom has all the pipes exposed and the toilet is akin to sitting in an old shed.... any way, we stay and a friend loaded up the truck saturday night and delivered our furniture sunday morning, it was not a rest saturday though as the place resembled a rubbish tip.

  Sometimes women want more...

  by FlyingHighNow in

  2. relationships

  it's a myth that men always have raging libidos and women are always saying no or want less sex.

  just spreading the word.. and guys, if you find yourself on the low end of the libido scale, please don't make your gal think it's her fault.

  that can destroy your relationship.. http://www.aolhealth.com/condition-center/mens-sexual-health/when-wives-want-more-sex-than-their-husbands?icid=main%7chtmlws-main-n%7cdl3%7csec1_lnk3%7c173917.

  I would like to point out that not all sexual abusers are male some are female and it's more common than we would like to believe. My son told me this. He works as a psychologist in a prison where many of the inmates were sexually abused by their own mothers. Mind you the mothers did not consider it abuse just giving their son an education.

  How do you deal with shunning ?

  by man in black in

  my wife and i da'ed ourselves two years ago.

  she left because she felt there was no forward momentum in the congregation.. me: because i really started to notice the lack of love and concern amoungst "true christians".

  we have gotten to the point now where we will say hello to any jw's we run into, but the total avoidance thing is starting to get somewhat creepy to me.. example : my wife was in target several weeks ago, put her items on the belt and was getting ready to checkout.

  I was talking to one of the Elders who df me at the supermarket. We were talking for 5mins or so until he realized who he was talking to then he mumbled something about Satan and took off. Love relating that story to people. If they are rude to me in public then I respond in a loud voice with something like "You JW's can be so rude sometimes"
