If he marry's her on a pretext of hoping she'll convert, to me it looks like a devorce in the making, sad that he isn't looking for a relationship with a person really, he's looking to try before he buys before he repents and hopefully converts her. What a sucky thing to do! Doomed I think!

How often do disassociated people go back to the organization?
by SEL ina friend disassociated in order to get divorced, hoping not to get disfellowshipped.
some time later, he has a serious non-jw girlfriend whom he'll probably end up marrying.
the thing is, he didn't disassociate because he no longer believed the wt doctrines.

My Story not for the weak of heart
by TotallyADD ina year after my parents were baptized i was born in 1954. that same year my father was appointed presiding overseer and remained in that position until the early sixties despite the fact he was still smoking.
he gained the position by default because he was the only baptized man who could read.
thus began my life course of abuse, neglect and cult thinking.

As someone who had this religion forced down my throat from birth I understand the isolation the fear and the guilt, but you've suffered so much more. I hope this is indeed good therapy for you, and I guess it's really nice that those of us that are ex dub just get for the most part how you feel and I think thats something of a relief most people and definately for me.
Looking forward to part 2 Totallyadd.

Does the fear of death prevent a fullfilled life?
by Evidently Apostate inas time continues along with my exit from the religion i think about this question often.
is living a slaves existence in order to hopefully gain an eternal life worth it?
i have begun to wonder what will happen to me when i am dying whether i will see a bright light or not or will i awaken to a heavenly courtroom to be judged for my deeds that will be laid before me.

My best answer would be yes, an unhealthy fear of anything can lead to an unfulfilled life.
I guess for me because of the JW upbringing, death is final and nothing to be afraid of whereas "The fear of the Known" was the biggest thing to grapple with, again completely unhealthy.

I'm not in possesion of a piece of paper, shied away from all that given my parents example, but we have been together for 18 yrs now and yes I would do it all over again! He makes my heart glad, makes me laugh and helped me bring my 3 beautiful children into this world. For that no matter what happens in our future, I'll always love him.
Now I'm going to get a bucket because I'm making myself sick, lol
