@ one point you sais it wasn't a president, then you say it is not a person, then you say Tall, slender, and bearded
Are you Tall, slender, and bearded?
firstly, my apologies for all the posts i've written over the past few weeks asking for help with all the issues that come with leaving the wt.
i realize i am all "take" and no "give" at this point, but i'll pay it forward at some later date, i promise!
so, as the title of this thread suggests, i'm fading fast....more disappearing than fading really.
What ever you do, do not write a letter (especially one the elders may get a hold of) You probably will not get a response to the letter soon enough and also it could lay dormant for several years after you forgot that you wrote it be used against you, by the (judge, jury, and executioner)
I have never met my grandfather but my mother says that he use to say his wife does enough talking for the bothe of them, and
"If you don't talk people think that you are stupid, and if you do talk then they know that you are stupid."
Growing up in my home town, and also being around JWs I understand the meaning of walk silently and carry a big stick.
i am new to this forum and i just stumbled upon it and have been intrigued with the comments and experiences.
i have not been envolved for a long time now but my entire family is still is.
grandparents, mother, my step dad, and my entire family on my grandmothers side.. but most everyone here, from what i have noticed, has strengthened my belief that if you were a jw at one point, you now are a stronger and better person for it.
I think JWs make better people when they are asleep!!!
so i'm sitting at my desk at work when my cell phone rings.
i've been faded for over 3 years now and i'm way beyond the point where i didn't answer my phone and dreaded any knocks on my door.. anyway, i answer and it's an elder from my old congregation.
he went on about how he was pretty much going down his list of names of inactive/ and was wondering if he and another elder could come by for a visit.
New Thought,
JW's have said it themselves,
Satin always looks for the weakest link for prey
when i expressed my doubts about my beliefs to my parents the other day, my mom said that 'no matter what people do, they are always searching for something.
if it's not this religion, which one will you go to?'.
she gave the example that practically since time began, people have been clinging to hope in some form or another, namely religion.
I was just thinking about what a friend told me, it went something like this:
That he thought of religeon as a crutch
As a person needs a crutch for support if the person has a broken leg
So religeon is a crutch to support someone with a broken spirit
for those of you who doesn't care about my dating life can stop reading here...some of you knows a little bit since before and might want to have an update.
i've learned that there are a lot of players out there and that i may be one of those girls who easily fall for these types, unfortunately - not anymore though!i've learned that when a guy says, talk to you later, don't reply to your sms/text within 1-2 days, never calls you, doesn't suggest going to the movies or watching a football game together, only calls you drunk saturday nights, etc etc isn't interested in you, at all (except for perhaps one thing, and one thing only).i've learned that guys can be very cowardly when it comes to be honest abt their feelings and intentions (not all though) - mr. doe is perfect as we all knowi've learned that i'd rather stay single than being with the wrong personi've got to know myself better and know what i don't want!
!however, all in all, this year as a happy single and non jw has been a great experience for me.
Only calls drunk on Saturday nights???
Reminds me of a joke:
This man in this bar orders a drink, drinks it and looks in his shirt pocket, then says "Bartender give me another drink"
The man drinks again and looks in his shirt pocket again, then says "Batender give me another drink"
He does this several times before the batender asks the man "Why do you look in your shirt pocket before you order another drink?"
The man replies "I have a picture of my wife in my shirt pocket and when she looks good enough to me then I go home."
Seriously Sweet-Heart,
There are a lot of scammers and internet sluts out there so be careful...
I hope you did the WebCam and checked things out, and if he asks for any money (no matter how convincing) 99.9 percent, it is a scam

You can marry 16 women in a lifetime,
(4 Better) + (4 Worst) + (4 Richer) + (4 Poorer) = 16
