Have you met his family and friends? Has he discussed yourrs and his marriage plans with his family? Has he invited you to his kingdom hall?
If you and he still have a secret relationship, then you really should move on.

I don't believe my boyfriend is 100% committed to this religion. How to handle?
by herlovelyworld inhi guys!
im very new here and i need a little help.. im not a witness, but i know all of the quirks and rules and whatnot because my long-distance boyfriend is a witness.
the issue, other than the obvious, is that i fell in love with him before he told me he was one of jehovahs witnesses.

BTW Why can't I cut an paste with Mozilla - it's crap.
You can but you can't right click the mouse to do so. Highlight, go to"edit" on the Menu bar and select 'copy'. Plant your cursor and return to 'edit' and select 'paste' to finish.

All of the threads blasting doubting active dubs, faders and elders about being active posters on this site are ridiculous. As was mentioned, they are a source of inside information. But more importantly, they have to find their own way out just like everyone else. There is no timetable for doing this. No one should feel they have do ANYTHING until they are good and ready.

"The FDS has lovingly given us time"
by Crisis of Conscience inboy am i tired of hearing this one.
yes folks, i heard it at the meeting this week...again.
the sm included a local needs part and this was the subject - family worship night.. apparently, regarding fwn, that time was never, nor now is, ours.

FWN is a joke around these parts. Most use the extra night to catch up on sleep, laundry, tv, anything but studing WT pubs.
MLE - Not to beat a dead horse but WT members are not bible scholars. The GB has gased up the minds of it's followers to believe that they are possess special knowledge of the bible and it's prophecies. Most WT members have not read the bible in it's entirety, they can only quote scriptures ad-naseum out of context.
I live in the NE and have found many persons who are knowledgeable about the bible and other faiths in general. For many of these people, their beliefs are deeply personal. They don't feel the need to spend every waking moment discussing, proving their faith, converting folk etc. This is contrary to what the WT teaches.

I didn't frump as dub but my style has changed now that I'm fading. I'm not as concerned about low necklines, hemlines and clingyness when shopping for clothes.

by cyberjesus inwhile having a conversation at a night club with two guys ( i go salsa dancing at least 3 times per week) i was telling of a story of a time i went with a friend to a strip club but we left because our consiences felt guilty ( my friend was still in bethel).
so i said "since i was a member of this religion".
at that moment one of they guys immediately asked me "which religion?".

Are they really closing down branches in Martinique, Guadeloupe and French Guyana ?
by aligot ripounsous ini just got this information on the phone, from a local jw family member : the society is definitely downsizing its worldwide institutional network and they intend to disband their bethels in the three french overseas departements of martinique, guadeloupe an french guyana.
i've not heard about the fourth departement la reunion in the indian ocean but i gather that they might go the same way there.. i wonder , what about the decent amount of money i donated to them in order to build one of those bethels , is it bound to be siphoned off to brooklyn ?
objection, that was not included in the deal.

I heard about this today from a family member in WI.
Jamie Bowers - I wonder if this has to do nwith the French government eliminating the Watchtower's tax exempt status
My guess as well.

I know it's hurrican season, if you live near a port city (Balt, Philly, Ft Lauderdale etc) you can get a cruise cheap. Or find a vacay package for a Carribean getaway at a reasonable deal.
NYC is pretty in the fall with tons to do. Book a hotel in NJ and commute by train to the city, you will save on hotel & parking costs.
Spa weekend is also a great, relaxing idea.

Documented transition from being an elder to becoming a free man
by TastingFreedom init has been a year since i stopped attending meetings with the jehovah's witnesses.
as one year anniversary has passed, i thought it would be helpful to highlight some of the main events during this transition.
it may help others that are going through the same experience.
