  Good family news

  by GeneM in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my little brother (age 19) just got df'ed and is likely going to come live with me.

  the entire family (who are all still devout) know that if he decides to do that, he is never coming back since i da'ed years ago and will set him straight.

  my only concern is that he may appeal it to keep from losing the family... he only stayed the night at her house twice got to second base.

  marriage without affection/sex/touching

  by zeb in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  yes thats my situation.

  some where along the path of life the wt guilt trip was dumped on our marriage and we havent had sex for years.. anyone else?

  the hearts and flowers and gifts and doing the cleaning, the house work and paying the daily accounts never being drunk on drugs playing the horses or screwing others yep its all there but nothing coming back due to the wt guilt trip.. they made so much of 'oral sex' and 'pornea' incorrectly quoted at that and ventured thereby into areas they were patently very ill equipped to comment on.

  Was it the doctrine or the control that woke you up?

  by Evidently Apostate in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  even though i knew some of the doctrines were so convoluted they couldnt be genuine, every prophecy mentioned in the bible was simplistic and direct i still felt it was the best place to raise a family.

  i felt like i could ignore the hypocrisy, manipulative and fake personalities and still have true friends and unbreakable family bonds.

  even though my concience would bother me i would always try to forgive.

  Sitting Still at Meetings has Become an Impossibility

  by venusinfauxfurs in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  since i know the truth about jw, and still have to go to meetings for family reasons (and because i don't want to leave my friends, either) i get so sick in my chair in the hall.

  i can't pay attention, i can't sit still knowing it's all such a waste of time and a big fat lie.

  i get weird symptoms like: the feeling that i'm going to almost pass out, very sweaty or very cold, and weak legs though i'm sitting down, and the urge to get up and run away.

  Kingdumb maladies stuck in your head...

  by Leto in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i had a dream last night that i went to a meeting.

  the speaker announced we were going to sing the "we're jehovah's witnesses" song, to which i said an audible "dear god" which got a bunch of dirty looks from other people sitting by me.

  so now i'm awake, sipping my coffee, and i have "we're jehovah's witnesses" stuck in my head.
