  being a born-in i don't have much friends, in or out of the org., add to that the fact that i have been a stay at home mom for the last 4 years has made it even harder to meet anyone.

  (i found out the truth about the wts shortly after deciding to stay home).

  if you would like to be a facebook friend, please pm me and i will send you my email address.

  Big Surprise!!

  so last night i'm chatting with my wife about some things i had read on this site, when she dropped a bomb on me.

  see we have been attempting new non-jw friendships, to make our fade a little more bearable (in her case since she has so many jw friends).

  i have been trying to do this for her and told of a few i've found here, and on facebook.

  I don't know if the look was shock or what...he was beside himself he never thought i would join the forum...see he had talked to me about it but i was just starting my fade so i wasnt sure. but like he said i have a lot of JW friends and he said i would find new friends here. Both locally and non-local friends. So if any of u want 2 make new friends either thru the forum; email or personal...let us know.

  Thanks for the welcome

  Gregor,

  I am still close enough for drop ins and visits. Funny i was just asked recently by my father how the new cong was. Other family members and friends have asked how the new hall is and yes a fabricate a story..for now at least. But it's still that awkward silence after they ask - you know?

  My co-workers know that I am a witness so I can't socialize and be "myself" at work. No i am not involved in anything else but I will start looking. Thanks for the suggestion.

  Hi everyone,

  I'm new but it's nice to be among people who feel the same I do. I am a beginning fader. I was raised in the "truth" and am/was very popular elder's daughter and social life of the congregations. Always involved. Regular pioneer early in life. My family is still very involved but i recently married and moved away which makes the fade a little easier. My husband has been fading for a while. We wanna do the complete fade but for family and my friends it's taken a little longer that he would like. It's a new thing for me - i'm used to the double life which i had no problem with but he does. All in all it's getting there. Im just trying to meet new people and make new friends since obviously all of my old friends will soon disappear.

  Just a little intro...
