  local elder stops by for a casual visit

  by SnakesInTheTower in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  first of all, i never believe that any visit by an elder is truly casual.

  this particular elder was one of my closest friends from the time i first met him in the lobby of bethel during a tour, to the time he moved here from uk, to the time i left his congo.

  i posted elsewhere that he once came by the house and said "is there anything i can do to help you come back to the kh?

  How Did You Find New Friends?

  by daringhart13 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm painfully curious on this subject.. when you have devoted your entire life, your entire social circle, everything you know......to this religion....when you fade away, how did you make new friends?

  how did you replace all those people you thought were your friends?.

  on top of fading away....... i lost a 'relationship' with a 'sister' due to not wanting to continue as a jw.

  i am still trying....like you said,,,not only do you lose everything....but everyone....the simpliest things become difficult...looking for work,,,i realized i did not have anyone to use for personal references!! i also cannot seem to get rid of my spiritual conscience....drugs,,,alot of immorality,,,heavy drinking,,,are not me,,,,so fitting in is so hard,,,haven't met that many non witnesses,,,but haven't fit in with the ones i have met...

  i hope to make changes here on the board....i hope to find some cyber friends that i can communicate with...the kind that " KNOW ALL ABOUT YOU AND LIKE YOU ANYWAY KIND"...hahahaha....yes,,,,i can give a whole meaning to the word imperfection....

  its just tough daringheart 13,,,,,make the effort and sometlhing will turn out....that is what i am going to do...good luck

  What is the reasoning of Israelites being allowed to have concubines?

  by EmptyInside in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  were they all foreign women?

  it seems to be contradictory too, because they weren't to have marriage alliances with other nations.

  but, i guess using the woman as a sex slave and baby making machine was okay.

  It pains me

  by Weeping in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it pains me to have to say what i do.. believe me, i would much rather just say kind things and never offend anyone.

  it really hurts me to get people angry at me.

  i certainly do not intend to make people angry.

  I have to give GREAT THANKS!

  i wanted all of you to know how much you have helped me in the few short weeks that i have been here.. i was starting to sink into a very deep and dangerous depression, wrestling with the lies that i have been taught all of my life, and feeling like i was evil because i did not want to follow anymore.

  fearing that i was deeply offending god and hurting him.. since being on this site, the weight is starting to be lifted.

  the thick veil of fog is slowly starting to clear, and i feel like i can live!

  Were you Stalked or Chased After Once you Exited the JW's by Elders ?

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i tried to fade off the map by moving 30 miles initially in 2004 after i exited in late 2003 .

  the first several years they didn't bother me.

  i ran into a elder from my former congregation in late 2005 in an antique store - he tried telling me i was wrong for stopping attending meetings.
