Hey Truthseeker...the fact that you have no kids is a bonus. If you decide to split with the wife at least there wont be any children and battles with custody...and broken hearts of little ones seeing their parents split up....besides ... you dont want to put another child through being raised a witness by the mom...I was raised a Witness and it screws up your head....really!
I dont really know what to say...nobody can tell you what to do.
To be honest with you i think you already have the answer to your question. You know what has to be done and you know what is right for YOU..it seems your here because you want some reassurance of your choice.
you say this will mess up her life and that you hate to hurt her...but it will mess up YOUR life if you continue to live this farce...it will also mess up your marriage if it aint already messed up.
Nobody can tell you what to do. It has to come from within you..hopefully others will post with some better advice than what i just gave you.
Goodluck in all

Hey Farkel...sounds like you have a superiority complex.
"Dont Respond"? Now your ordering us what to do?
Who the Hell died and made you God?
How about you get yourself on some new anti-psychotic medication..because the ones your on ain't working for you anymore...and tell the doctors to tighten your straight jacket...
I pity you....and pity the fact that you are such a miserable person ..and the only friend you will have at your death bed will be your ONE friend called Misery and Bitterness...they will eat you alive and leave you a cold and lonely person...
God Bless...

where were you when the world ended?
by animal inbeing raised by a single mom was bad enuff for me, a hard headed boy.
add to that a mom that was in and out of the jw's all my life and you can see where the potential for disaster for me came from.. none of you know me, i just found this site while doing research on the death of someone in california (ex-jw).
i like what i see, for the most part.. i was raised from a young age with the threat of death in 1974-75 if i wasnt a good witness.

dedaisy..yeah..and you know the sad part is that the JW's made sure that Death was your ultimate fear..with the end of the world...armagheddon...if your not good your damned basically soart of thing...i guess i took it real hard when i was like 5 or 6 years old listening to all this stuff...suddenly i was totally insecure..this world was an evil place and there went all the security that a little girl is supposed to have...out the window it flew...
i was left with just sitting there and having to wait until this world would end with a terrible armagheddon...every thunderstorm i literally pooed my pants sometimes cause i thought it was the end.
They focus so much on Death and THE End that its all they ever talk about...ironically they say nobody will die in the new world..but yet they focus all on death.
So here i am 36 years old..i had my second little girl 4 months ago...
last week i sat with my husband to my side..my baby in my arms..our 7 yr old daughter was already in bed...
i was looking at my baby..her face ..her hands..and all i wanted to do was make sure that she grows up feeling secure and loved and let her know that life has so many wonders to discover...and then all of a sudden while thinking this...Bang Boom...i start balling my eyes out...my husband asked what was wrong and i couldnt even tell him....i just said that the baby was so beautiful it made me cry...but in reality..the thought that suddenly entered my mind was ...My God..My baby is going to die one day..this beautiful human being that i hold has no escape from death..we are all going to die and there is nothing i can do about it...
A pretty screwed up thing to start thinking when your holding your baby..but i did....the fear has so much been dwelled in me that i still have to fight that feeling and its hard sometime.
Thanks for letting me let this all out. I never ever talk about this to my friends or anyone...i dont feel like dwelling and going on about the same crap so i shut up..but i am glad to have found this place where i can just let go and talk and have others understand what i am talking about..soart of..
okay..thats all i haveto say..peace to all
and .....happy Easter!!!!!!!!

i went to the memorial
by josephus init was great.. me and my freinds + brother stood at the back with our dffd freind talking, smiling and laughing at the po.. we then went to the pub, and go drunk.. brill.. josephus

Hey Josephus..cool..but i dont understand why you went...if your in the back making fun of it all...forgive my ignorance..i just dont get it. According to the bible we should be doing this..not the way the JW's have it..they dont even drink or eat the bread..they just pass it..anyway..i was just curious as to why you would go through the trouble of going and then standing at the back laughing at the po..i woulda rather stayed home and drank my bottle of wine and get drunk or something..lol...
later

Memorial No Shows...Please Check in....
by ISP inwell, i was tempted but i decided not to go to the most bizarre religious ritual of modern times....how about you?.

Okay..well i haven't been to a memorial in...lets see...21 years or more...oh ma Gaaaaawwdd!!!!! I feel so old!! But i still get asked for I.D. when i go to a bar and I am 36!! so that makes me feel better ...anyways..as i was sayin......
I remember sitting there when i was a little girl..and sometimes i would just pick ma nose..ya know..i was bored...and my friend was beside me and we would pass little notes to each other and draw these men with big penises on them and stuff...and her mom caught us so she gave my friend such a big twist of a pinch..gulp..then we were passing the wine and crackers and i remember being so hungry that i asked my mom if i could have one and she said no..and i wanted one so much that i tried to sneak it off and then stopped when my mom gave me a dirty look....and there was one of the 144000 up on stage this time..it was in a school auditorium on Martingrove or Kipling i believe in Toronto....vague memory of that time.....hhmmm....makes me wanna sing...
"meeeeeeemories...may be beautiful and yet...much tooo painful to rememberrrrrrrrrr of the way we werrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeee"
Yeah, so now i go to this Christian Church with my hubby...its cool...nobody bugs your arse and i love the talks...they are down to earth and you learn from them...anyways..they pass the crackers..or whatever it is..the host? i dunno..and you gotta eat it...and then they passed these little cups...and ya gotta drink it...i thought it was wine but its Welchs grape juice ..or at least it tastes like it. The first time i did that it came in handy cause i was hungry and thirsty and Pregnant!!! so that little bit just hit the spot!
We are supposed to eat and drink the body of Christ right? not just pass it around...lol..rofl.....cause that would be like that surf thing they do at clubs during concerts where they pick up someone and pass them all around over their head...oh nevermind...
okay...later everyone..it was nice talking to myself..here...

Guyferna...why do you have all this anger in your heart towards us?
Are you having problems at home...at the hall..with the witnesses? Are you frustrated and tired of being told what to do and not having a right to voice your opinion in the hall and decided to come here where you are allowed to?Well then Welcome...However..your information is innacurate and very defensive of the JW's...especially with that 1975 thing, which i lived Through and went through...look through these forums..the proof has already been published by others.
With hostility in your writing you say "I'm tired of people complaining! Why dont you go out and do something about it?"
We did...it is right here...where one is free to voice their opinion.I was rather surprised that you put yourself in God's shoes by asking if he blesses a complainer..a whiner...or people who just sit around and spend time on chats...maybe he does maybe he doesn't...whats it to you..and why does it anger you that we do this stuff.....ask yourself that....and find the answer...
I feel blessed to have Jesus Christ in my life...I dont haveto be JW to feel blessed..nor do i haveto come to you or an elder to let them know what my efforts are...if any.......and you shouldn't be asking me what my efforts are and putting yourself in any kind of superior position than any other man.....only God Almighty is Superior to us....and helloooooooooo..i hate to break it to ya...
You ain't God!!Please take some time out...go on a vacation....let loose...you sound real wound up.
Besides...if you are a JW...you are not permitted to talk to us or to communicate with us. So where are your efforts according to the JW standards? You should be sitting in a room with the elders and telling them how you just communicated to hundreds of ex-JW's.....
if you are still in the "truth".....and believe it to be true...you are being a hippocrit. ... And its okay...i believe that God blesses even the hippocrits...the angry ......and the hostile people.and may God bless you and keep you close at heart and i will pray that you will find some peace in that tormented soul of yours...you sound so so angry.....bitterness will eat you up and leave nothing of you....please truly seek God and get some peace back in your life...also...find out what and who your really angry at....i have a feeling your totally misdirecting your anger.
Peace to You
