I'm sure she has a wonderful hubby
in my current life i know a lot of people who live together.
some of them might have done this because they do not like marriage, and others have done this as a step towards getting married.
in all, in my post-witness life i find that i have no problem with either view.

i havent posted much here, but ive read a lot for about six months now.
although most everyone here appears to have had some degree of affiliation with the jw organization, the individual posters seem to be from pretty diverse backgrounds.
im really curious about something.
The living forever thing and the fear of not knowing anything at all,if I died during armageddon.I also lost my father at 14 and I was hoping he would be ressurected and I was so happy because they didn't teach hellfire..I was sure before hand my dad was in hell .
I wasn't rasied a JW,started studing at 17,off and on.Until I became more serious around 20 and became baptized at 22,in 1992.I also left in 1992

I never looked for anyone in the organization.
I'm not male bashing at all here,but I knew I would never be a good submissive JW wife.I'm a 50 -50 gal
I had a real hard time with the be submissive to your husbands talks.

That was nice.
Thanks for that
i was wondering when the next quick build was happening in ontario, i think it is a great oppourtunity to spread some apostacy.
after i left the cong my employer was a jw and my dad worked there also and they asked me to go to one and help out with the electrical, so i thought that it was kinda my duty to help out as it would be a kind jesture and keep my job.
i think it was also my dads last attempt to bring me back and let me see the love again.
Yeh,I remember.I helped tar the shingles down on the roof
I purposely stayed away form the kitchens.
.
as a continuation of minimus' thread.. how do you think people perceived you - when you were a jw?
I was looked at the ..much too quite..but soft spoken and sweet.Some looked at me as being weak,because I was too quite
if you would like to see the pictures of the german trip click the link below.
it was a very productive trip and much was accomplished.

Yes,thanks for the pics.
Thankyou for helping and bringing this out in the open.
i was wondering how you all felt about feild service.. i didn't like it all all,i would have minor anixety attacks and sweaty palms before i went door to door.
i would have a hard time taking a door,so one time,my loving "sister" left me standing at door by myself.i remeber being "happy".
i was very uncomfortable going to peoples door and trying to force religion on them,when they didn't want it.i only went out because it was imbedded in my mind that i had to go door to door to save peoples lives.i didn't want to have blood on my hands of the people i may have helped save with god's words.. with the answering,i almost passed out...lol..i used to be painfully shy.when i didn't answer enough,i would be judged as not being spiritually(sp)strong.the woman i was studing with would try to raise my hand up.the way i looked at it there was no accepting of who you were...had to be like the social butterflies to be accepted.now thats what i call love.
I'd say they are getting stinkin rich,when they changed the placement of magazines to donation.WE would donate money for the magazines,more than they were worth if we sold them,than to ask for money at the doors.I wouldn't ask for donations at the doors after I payed for them already.I told them they were free I would get the look from the other sisters when I refused to ask for a donation.
I think this way they are getting double the mooola.

I also disliked the thought of having to prove myself to the organization.
UMMMMM..."I thought this was between God and I"
do you think that you are easy to get along with?
are you judgemental?
are you positive?
