I really, truly, did NOT need to hear all about Cedars sexual preferences and fetishes above. Man, was that shit in his book?
He didn't go into more intimate details of his sexual preferences in the book. Mostly it was a tale of his masturbation habits, ill-timed erections, erections in field service and fantasies about "girls" serving him at MTS School. And yes, humping the Christmas tree.
As for the anal preferences and the pre-sex porno, this was what he was talking about when he said on his livestream that him and his wife were not sexually compatible. He even stated in one of his emails that "I don't like the way you have sex with me". It's been mentioned before on this thread that Lloyd prefers the Greek style sex. His wife didn't, so that's the main issue for him in not desiring his wife and seeking out sex workers who can indulge his fantasies. So, Lloyd preferred to masturbate/watch porn alone in their room, and she slept with the girls. Dijana revealed a lot, including the fact that they had not had sex since the birth of their second child. (She was born 22 March 2019).
There is a lot more, but this is the most relevant to the issue he brought up in the livestream regarding sexual incompatibility.

Will he ever find someone?
The question is what is he willing to accept? I doubt any of those sex workers were his age (43). Will be be willing to date someone his age most likely with children of their own? Complete with their own emotional scars and hang ups?
Also of no small consideration is what a potential romantic interest will be facing in dating Lloyd.
He’s by no means an attractive man. He has a Muppet nose, his chin and belly are still problem areas and he’s obviously going through a midlife crisis. At worse he’s fat and clumsy, at best he’s an awkward looking guy with no game, lame jokes, and who speaks in a boring nasal monotone.
His personality can range from prickly, always eager for praise and quick to turn sour upon the slightest provocation. When he tries to make jokes and be jovial it is usually cringeworthy.
He’s always talking about Jehovah’s Witnesses. Always quick on the button to explain his failings on a religion he left over 10 years ago. What does he do for work? Make videos about Jehovah’s Witnesses that is dependent upon donations.
His sexual proclivities are the most troublesome of all. He’s a porn addict, excessively masturbates (and talks about it like everyone is dying to know) and has a fetish for anal sex. He needs to “fluff” himself up with porn prior to having intercourse.
A Google and social media search on him is going to turn most if not all off.
Dijana by far was the best he could have hoped for. She put up with his shit for years and no one he could get right now is going to come close to her with regards to looks. He’s going to quickly come to this realisation once he finally understands what is now his dating pool. I imagine he’ll make one last desperate and pathetic push once he finds out she is seeing someone. Perhaps she already has and he has retaliated by removing her producer credit from his videos.

It struck me like a tonne of bricks how he introduced her on the “Introducing Mrs Cedars” thread. One, she took his name rather than establishing her own identity. Two, he suggested she’d be more interested in exchanging recipes with other exJW women. Three, he falsely stated her English wasn’t great. She was his primary (only) translator for his business and now her English isn’t great?
All that was a key indicator he didn’t want her interacting much with others. When him and Tibor went all in about the “JW Mindset”, they considered not for one second the 15 years Lloyd treated his wife like a JW would.
It was like “stay at home, make dinner and take care of the kids, show up with me at events and on my channel when I tell you to, otherwise STFU and only befriend people in this community who agree with me.”

sbf: but he wants his audience to know that he really doesn’t like the idea of lying about who he is in any case.
That is because he wanted the elders to know who he was and preferred a scene. This is how desperate for content he is. When describing how the elder ghosted him and ignored him from then on, it sounded like he was disappointed as if this was the reaction he desired when showing up to the KH. He even complained that he didn’t follow him into the Croatian section after the English meeting was over. Skip ahead to 46:53 and you'll see what I mean. They have a history and Lloyd is genuinely sad he wasn't confronted by this elder and even reasoned that he should have been, since he was known to be DAed and it was an elder's responsibility to take him aside and ask his reasoning for being there. About the elder:
He was effectively a friend, or used to be a family friend. I’m not going to go into everything but suffice to say, I think he’s a nice guy, but I also know he’s one of the, one of those elders that likes to go above and beyond in being intrusive. That’s been my experience with him. So, to be sat behind him after all these years was emotional, uhm yeah, it’s going to take me awhile to process it.
This is how he described the same elder in his book:
I was relieved to find Sisak congregation’s coordinator, who spoke English, waiting for me at the bus station. Though I could not speak a word of Croatian, he invited me to give one of the talks at the meeting the next evening.
This elder is not to be confused with Marko, who was the BOE Coordinator for the JC:
Footnote 315 This was not the same coordinator who met me at the bus station in Chapter Four. There had been a change in personnel since then.
But evidently this elder he met at this English-speaking KH had his own sordid history with him, so much so it's going to take him some time to "process it". Sounds VERY personal. Lloyd even said he felt he was involved with the Croatian branch, though he doesn't say why. Probably yet another elder who really had a problem with him. Maybe it's the one who said he treated Dijana like a rag or the one who accused him of running a scam by outsourcing his translation work to JWs whilst being inactive. I think the word "intrusive" is a clue that he was quite possibly one of these two.
Or maybe Lloyd Evans is just one huge dick, and these elders liked Dijana and knew how vulnerable she was, so they felt like protecting her from this foreign oaf.

How do you know how much Tibor is paid? If it were that low I doubt hed stay.Did you watch the Tibor interview? He stated that he had a huge difficulty even getting called in for an interview in Croatia and when he did there was a lot of competition and a series of hoops they wanted him to hop through. Lloyd was his first and only employer. He said just that. Now look at the minimum wage in Croatia and the cost of living in Zagreb. Lloyd said on FB he pays 450 (€?) for his flat in the centre. He also doesn’t work a 40 hour week. Those edits for the amount of work Lloyd churns out is not a full time job. It isn’t even a full time job for Lloyd.
And if someone brings you something from somewhere, how does that mean they live there? Its their studio, saying someone lives at the studio because they brought something from the studio is just crazy.Did you watch the Ramacro video? It was said it was about 30 minutes from where he lives in the city centre and then he goes on a tour of it. No one forced him to, he filmed it. Ramacro has kitchen, toilet and laundry facilities. It also has a bedroom and a common area. Otherwise known as a “2 bedroom flat”. Which sounds crazier? Tibor living there and Lloyd killing two birds with one stone by having a dedicated flat and allowing Tibor to live there as part of his compensation? Or Lloyd paying for an empty flat with only the studio section and toilet facilities being used regularly? Safe to assume someone is living there and if not Lloyd’s an idiot for paying rent for a barely used flat. Of course someone else could live there including his wife and girls, or a sex worker he’s “dating” I guess but this isn’t the first time Tibor has fetched something from Ramacro. Perhaps Ramacro’s location was chosen because Tibor lived near that area and it was convenient for him? I don’t know. But I wouldn’t call this all “baseless” when he’s made several videos and provided other context as to what the situation is. And if Tibor wants to waltz in here and say “I don’t live at Ramacro, you are all liars!!” then whatever, I’ll stand corrected on that minor point.
In his January begging tweet Lloyd specifically threatened to shut down Ramacro, which might have also meant letting Tibor go.
No hard feelings, but your theories sound completely baseless.
They are based on what we know and what seems to be the most likely scenario. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that Tibor likely lives there. Watch the videos I referenced if you are that interested and come to your own conclusion as to what Ramacro is used for besides making videos.
Nicolaou - I think I saw the same map and confused Croatia with Bosnia and Herzegovina which has insane unemployment rates. My mistake. But what Tibor said about the difficulty of finding work in Croatia still stands. And I did read somewhere that the border regions of Croatia near the Bosnian and Serbian borders (where Lloyd used to live) have high unemployment rates. I would think that Zagreb and especially the coastal areas where tourism is a big draw would be the places to go to look for work, but Tibor wasn’t having any luck as a college grad in or near Zagreb.

Lloyd and Tibor are in a bit of a symbiotic relationship where they depend on each other. Lloyd needs Tibor for his specific skill set and his willingness to accept a local (low) wage. Tibor needs Lloyd because as he said it is difficult to get a job in Croatia, and almost impossible for one in his field. And Tibor is right, Croatia has the worst unemployment rate in the EU.
If I were Tibor, Lloyd being booted from TTATT was a huge blow. It could have been his ticket to Hollywood had it been a huge thing. Probably in no small part this was in Lloyd’s sales pitch.
Tibor definitely benefitted from the status quo of December 2021 which at least partially explains his bitterness towards Lloyd’s critics. I don’t see him splitting with Lloyd over a disagreement. It is however entirely possible, even probable that with his grift stuck in the mud, Lloyd will try to cut costs with Tibor and look to keep more of the money for himself. He might not have a choice if the Patrons continue to drop. He’s already lost most if not all of what he gained from the begging tweets.
It’ll be one of those incidents where Lloyd goes on holiday and Tibor, who is getting less and less work sees him for who he is : someone who doesn’t give a shit about others.
PS - It sounds like Tibor lives at Ramacro. In the latest video Lloyd stated he brought Lloyd JW literature from there.

And to have “leaked” information, which he no longer gets.
I suspect this is why he’s elevated Tibor to the forefront, making him a sort of unseen co-host and putting his name on t shirts. A childish attempt to tell everyone he doesn’t need them.
original reddit post (removed).
I think he's got a hard core of loyal fans, but he'll loose numbers through people loosing interest & moving on, finding new content etc
His schtick has a limited shelf life. Lately it's devolved into "Tibor this, Tibor that, let's see what Tibor has to say". Even at his peak. Lloyd Evans was essentially a social club with a strict sense of who you could talk to, associate with, complete with a set of rules on how to interact with its leader.
But people were led to believe it was much, much more. Hour+ videos that were filmed at real locations were called documentaries and were branded as such. Lloyd was involved with the TTATT documentary which he was always plugging on his channel and on his social media accounts. He appeared with Leah Remini on that one special. But he's been booted from TTATT for cause and hasn't released a documentary for coming up to two years now. It says right there in the Patreon goals that he is to complete one a year. Now he simply doesn't have the money or desire to travel abroad and film a documentary. There's also the huge workload he'd place on Tibor which would require a lot more money than he's paying him now.
Whilst I don't believe the comedy club routine directly hurt him, it doesn't do him any good either. In fact, it adds to the narrative that has emerged that Lloyd lives a life of leisure and part time work and doesn't necessarily need the money to churn out content. That's what prompted people to donate to him before - the image of Lloyd hard at work late at night going through old WT material to debunk the next JWB episode or convention.
This is the quandary he finds himself in. He has barely enough support to make his generic videos, pay Tibor and live his new lifestyle in Zagreb. To grow his patrons he needs better content which would cost money he doesn't want to spend. He'd rather he just gets all his patrons back and then he'll get some new and improved content out. To read his Patreon goals and compare it what he is really doing is an exercise in false advertising.
he's just (late) news update site.
And not a particularly good one at that. It's all part of the cycle of being an exJW. Sooner more so than later people tire of JW news, even those who still support him. So he needs to account for the 20 or so Patrons that will drop every month and replace them with at least 20, preferably more. It's not happening. His content is simply not worth the support of 404 patrons and it has caught up to him.

Why did Dijana settle for Lloyd?
It's important to remember whom she was at the time and what her situation was: A single pioneer sister living in a village outside Sisak with her parents with no hope of gaining any meaningful employment other than raising chickens and harvesting tomatoes. I seem to recall that somewhere Lloyd mentioned that she was a house cleaner or something.
I'd seriously want the fuck out of there. That's no place for a young woman to live.
Men are seduced by looks and Lloyd most certainly was. Women are seduced by words, and in Dijana's particular instance, she had another pressing need to get out of Sisak and into a country with more promising job prospects and better lifestyle. Lloyd especially gets verbose when he gets behind a keyboard and that's how he seduced her into moving to the UK and starting a relationship. Here's how he described their first meeting:
At the end of the meeting, a pretty young girl with dark eyes and raven hair approached me. Her flawless features reminded me of the singer Katie Melua. In perfect English, she thanked me for my talk and said she had enjoyed it. “By the way, I’m Deeyana,” she said.
But they were looking for opposite things, not that it's uncommon with people who barely knew each other. Lloyd wanted instant sexual gratification, and Dijana sought the charming, intelligent and financially stable pioneer brother who could support her. I doubt there were great prospects in her KH. Their email exchange probably went something like this:
"Have to wrap this up, I'm meeting with an important client. Lloyd xoxoxoxo"
Lloyd's supervisor: "Lloyd, can you empty the rubbish bin? Karen in accounting said hers is all full. After that there is a toilet that is overflowing on the second floor"
She didn't know she was marrying Jabba the Hutt.
At any rate, his grift took off and she lived a luxurious lifestyle by her standards. So, I think she got a bit wrapped up in it, and tended to ignore all the other bullshit that came with Lloyd because they were taking holidays several times a year on someone else's expense and could afford the expensive designer brand sunglasses now.
