First post
by BenRichards ini've been lurking here off and on for a few years, figured i would introduce myself and share the clif notes version of my story.. i'm in my late 30's and was born in.
mom was a jw, dad wasn't.
got baptized in my teens and started dating my eventual wife.

Welcome, it sounds as though you have a great situation already. I'd be concerned you would lose the good relationship you have with your mum if you mentioned CoC straight off. You were very lucky with your wife's reaction.

Just wanting to hear experiences.
by joe134cd init's funny how my mind works since walking out of the hall just a bit over a year ago.
for some reason i just can't seem to bring myself to go to the jw.org site.
i find it just to painful.

Welcome AlwaysBusy. I feel anger when I see anything JW related, especially pictures of happy drones.

They will control you. Have you been in control of your life since you left or did nothing fill the void? why did you leave in the first place? I say don't go back as you will never again be able to make a decision for yourself if you do.

A JW encounter in Hong Kong
by Listener inlast week i was in hong kong on a holiday and ran into some jws.
i was in a large shopping mall and noticed a number of jws holding out a pamphlet to passerbys.
before i knew it there was one walking towards me and stopped right in front of me stopping me from moving forward.. the jw was virtually shoving the pamphlet towards me and said i would like to offer you this pamphlet that directs you to a web site that will answer all your questions that you have about life.

You say your wife needs social activities, how many times has she been love bombed by the JWs outside of the KH? Do you do many activities together? How was the Baptist service you went to?

They sure took website worship far
by cookiemaster in- well, i'd be damned.
i'm a born in jw and never in a million years i'd thought i'd see this.
from internet is evil to website worshipping in less than a decade.

I don't think the average person will look twice at these pieces of propaganda, the reason they are getting so frantic in my opinion is to stop already converted JWs from stumbling across other sites.

I now have a law degree!
by digderidoo inhi guys, i don't really post on here much anymore, having been on here since 2001. this site helped me out in the early days and has been a great support system for all of my past jw issues.
like many others i was discouraged from an education so that i could window clean and pioneer in my youth during the 80's.
having spent many years post my jw exit in alcoholism and periods of drugs, i decided to clean myself up 7 years ago by attending aa, i was still a window cleaner ... at the time i wrote extensively on here about my issues.
