James87, you don't love her, you love a mental image you have created and stuck her face on.
Your alternative is to go ahead and marry her, then in 6 months you will be saying, "Those XJW fuckers were RIGHT, man! WHY didn't I listen to them?"
i dont know where to start so why not at the beginning.
i was seeing this girl and we hit it off great chemistry.
it went from a physical to a deeper relationship.

YES, you are fighting a lost cause, because her so-called "relationship" with you is based on DISHONESTY.
She has been dishonest with you,
she has been dishonest with her friends and family,
and she may have been dishonest, or unfaithful, to the vow she made when she ecame a baptized Jehovah's Witness.
You say the relationship between the two of you went from " a physical to a deeper relationship." I don't know what exactly you mean and I don't need to know. YOU know what you mean. SHE knows what you mean
SHE knows if she has already done things that could get her thrown out of her religion and her family.
YOU are not a JW. It is perfectly OK for YOU to communicate with me, but when you read this to her she will possibly have a fit or pass out. She might insist that you SHOULD NOT talk to me.
She wants to trap you in the same mind-control CULT that she is trapped in.
DON'T DO IT, MAN! Find yourself a nice normal girl who is not dishonest with you from the get-go.
Read this to her, and watch her reaction. THAT will tell you everything you need to know.
GOOD LUCK!
i am convinced that world history will go on and on, and don't believe in an end time scenario.. but... and... .
when events occure like trumps tomahawk strike on syria, putting bombing a place and many, many coalitions are made with friends and enemies, my thought are going back to a 40 years ago, when i was a litle boy raising up in a cold war naval harbour town in northwest europe.
my jw grandfather learned me to investigate history.
"There will be wars and rumors of wars, but the end is not yet."
i went with my husband tonight for the first time.
it was pretty appalling how they lied about the 144k and everyone else.
then passing the wine and bread for nothing.
Hmmm...

It certainly seems that the GB speech-writers have reading comprehension problems of their own, Silly Gooses!
i salute you.
many of you, like me, are probably under enormous emotional pressure, whether from a lingering false sense of guilt from your indoctrination, whether from "invitations," and assumptions that you'll naturally be coming, or whether from outright emotional blackmail, even begging and pleading.
i am thinking of you whoever you are, all of you, even though i don't know you in person.
Everyone survived?
No one was crucified?
Whew, that was CLOSE.
this morning i woke up from a good night's sleep to a horrible nightmare.
as soon as i woke up i asked myself when am i going to get this cult out of my head.
as a disclaimer i just want you all to know my wife would never do this because she is a hard fast atheist.

Perhaps your dream was a consequence of cognitive dissonance;
on the other hand, it might have been a bit of un-digested potato.
Nothing to fear, either way.
this was the first memorial that i declined to do any work for the memorial.
i was assigned as a parking attendant after getting downgraded from doing the sound and had no intention of doing either task but i had to attend for my family and continuation of my fade.
i sat there last night listening to the talk and couldn't help but shake my head as my brain attempted to process the bs.
The doorways of your perceptions are opening. Congratulations!
i salute you.

You're welcome. Maybe someday you will let go of the fear that every distant thunderclap is the beginning of Armageddon.
Not only is it not, it never will be. We were all taught tales invented by fairies.
... but, they fail to take note of one important detail.. i believe that if we are going to have any chance of reasoning with a jw about blood, this is the place we need to begin.. don't try to convince them that it was only a dietary law.
it wasn't, and they will never go along with it.. don't tell them that saving a life is more important than obeying a law, even a seemingly trivial one.
they take pride in obedience.
I'm going to let you have the last word, Elder Cofty.
I suspect you could be diagnosed with both Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Narcissistic Personality Disorder. You will not seek help because YOU are the ultimate authority, but you should.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health disorder that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and occurs when a person gets caught in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images or urges that trigger intensely distressing feelings. Compulsions are behaviors an individual engages in to attempt to get rid of the obsessions and/or decrease his or her distress.
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder in which the individual has a distorted self image, unstable and intense emotions, is overly preoccupied with vanity, prestige, power and personal adequacy, lacks empathy, and has an exaggerated sense of superiority. NPD is closely associated with egocentrism - a personality characteristic in which people see themselves and their interests and opinions as the only ones that really matter.

...and ACCURATE! Don't forget ACCURATE, Elder Cofty!
I'll bet a nickel you have no fans on this site.
I have at least one.
