for those of you still married to a jw...have you ever felt like you were living alone even tho there is a person on the other side of the bed?
i sure do...he has this whole "secret life" and all his jw friends and jw relatives and wont have anything to do with my friends or my relatives, even tho most of them never were jws....so we dont do anything together as a couple.
i mean zip.
Lovesdub,
I hope that you will find the strength to leave. If you never were a witness would you put up with this treatment from him? I have been DF for a long time and my Jw dad still knows how to put the digs in me. I'll love you as long as you are a witness guilt trip. It can make you real sick if you don't do something about it. Look at how much pain you are going through because of this abuse.

My Jw Dad just called me and asked me if I knew about this case. I said yes. He was watching it on tv and was wondering if I was watching it. I sais I watched a little and found it too horrible. My Dad says well he was disfellowshipped see what happens when you don't put trust in Jehovah. I said Dad it has nothing to do with being a witness or not this guy was pure evil. I haven't heard from my Dad in six months and then he calls today to tell me this.

What a monster. He's so matter of fact. He must really believe that his wife and kids will be resurrected. I just happened to be flipping channels and heard the word kingdom hall and stopped and started watching. Had to turn it off J ho or not just too upsetting.
i come to you with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes.
tuesday 27th may 2003 at 12.30 am, i misscarried my first baby.
i was 9 weeks pregnant.
Kelpie and Rick,
Sorry you lost your baby.
i keep hearing rumors that there are locations throughout the country where the witnesses have their own schools, kinda like parochial school.
has anyone else heard this?
what's the deal?
My brother was pulled out of high school by my stepmother and homeschooled when he was around 15 He is 22 now and doesn't even have a GED diploma. He works for an elder's lawn service and still lives at home. The reason my stepmom pulled him out of high school was because he wanted to be on the basketball team and he asked and begged her. The coaches even tried to talk to my stepmom on my stepbrothers behalf. So she just took him out of school. I am glad I was out of the house when my Dad married that witch.
i drive by a kh every day, since it's very close to my work route, and i was wondering if anyone else secretly cheers that they don't have to go back into one of those things.
when i see a few cars parked there on the weekday, i am so thankful i don't have to go out and talk that stuff to strangers.
any thoughts?
I go by one hall almost everyday. Most of the time I don't even think of it. If I do look over at it and the kids aren't in the car, I might say a few curse words or just say thank goodness I am free. It depends on the mood.
i have spent the last few days reading all the information about the wts on the internet.
i am shocked.
appalled.
Berylblue,
Welcome. I know what you mean about being shocked,and violated. Especially since they claim to be so Godlike. I hope you will find peace with yourself as I have just recently found myself.

Golden Girl,
Just wanted to say I really admire your strength and courage. You definately know the meaning of unconditional love. Your husband is lucky to have such a wonderful person by his side.
after all the years of having it drilled in my head that demons could attach themselves to an object i now wonder: is that just more jw bull****?
am i still reacting to the years of brainwashing or is there really a concern about what one brings into their home?.
anybody have any thoughts on this????
I know the pant suit I wore to my brothers kingdum hall wedding last year was cursed with negative energy. Every time I tried to wear it I would think of sitting at his wedding and listening to that crap wedding talk. I threw the thing in the garbage.
