poor cognac's challenge has me thinking.. as a non-jw, if i were to marry this jw, would the congregation attribute problems we would encounter to him being married to me?
i don't want to be a punching bag.
couples have challenges.
until he see's the borg for what it is ..... it's worthlesss cause... he can never really love you
it just doesn't work....
My sister who is still in use this point to get me back, " Tate, you can never have a relationship,..."
she is right.... but now I know i`t's not because of the truth... it's the cult mentality
It's not your fault.... it' seemed like a good Idea.. you didn't know going in, get out
GOOD LUCK

OMG .. LaGuerta is Dead!!!!
he's killing for the "regular reasons".. killer
best TV show ever!!!
some people leave because they are fed up with the elders.
others have personality issues.
some have doctrinal and prophecy reasons.
it's easy, like flipper said, " they're not a religion"... can't be the best
they are a picture perfect cult though... so I gues they are the best cult...
first off, i owe this site a tremendous debt of gratitude.
i have been an inactive witness for 4 glorious years, and the spark that began my fade out of the organziation was this site and paul's jwfacts.com.
it opened my eyes to a whole new world of insight, and i discovered that there were so many people out there like me - still a "spiritual" individual, but completely disgusted with the jw organization.
welcome!!
since joining this site and having my eyes opened,i find i'm now dealing with a lot of emotions that were suppressed.one being the passing of loved ones,in the org we were discouraged from showing proper emotions due to the fact that if you did you were considered weak since they the dearly departed were only sleeping.now im being bombarded with dreams of my loved ones that i,due to my brainwashing never had the emotional release that i should have had.i'm just wondering how others on this site are coping,and dealing with the fact that everything we was taught was false almost as a way to keep up under control,as we lost years and decades of time.i almost wish i keep my head and the sand and had taken the blue pill.what has helped you all deal with this ...new religion......no religion...etc.
I cried for about two weeks off and on .. when it all settled in..
You are breaking all kinds of bonds in your brain... many emotional
no shame in crying .. and you will feel better..

looking back now it is almost as if i became an atheist but still believed in my religion.
welcome .. great first post!!
I too became an atheist, before I realised the truth is not the truth
i don't know how you figured out who i am but i know that you have been reading my posts and i know that you know that it is me.
that conversation revealed it all.
i don't know if you plan on telling the elders or have already done so.
Hi ! sweetie... good luck!!
you are such a good person..
i have facebook.
i probably get on it 4 or 5 days a week, typically to see what's going on with family and those i know.
plus pictures!.
thanks!
