hello i dont know that much about jehovahs witness beliefs .
but i am wondering if anyone could help me understand their views .
on relationships, marriage and dating between them and people who are not jehovahs witnesses.
Sophie...Please read my post "JW & NON-JW RELATIONSHIP". I didn't know what I was getting into. I didn't know her "trainned" mind, now I may have lost her forever! Don't do what I did.
I understand NOW...but it may be too late.
I wish you the very best.

I am not a JW, but am very much in love with a wonderful woman who is.
Occupation: I work in electronics - retail. I used to be a DJ working in radio broadcasting.
Pets: three cat's - one of which adopted me as his home. Used to have a dog - Pomerainian, but he died.
I love God.
I enjoy life.
I enjoy good movies (old and new), the ocean (wanted to live in California since I was a child - the bay area), I envision moonlit walk's on the beach with "Angel" (see: JW & NON-JW RELATIONSHIP), cookouts and really GOOD barbeque! photography (black & white aswell as color, analog aswell as digital - I used to develop and print my Black & Whites), biking, music (I have two room's of phonograph records), Art, I like road trip's & cross country travel, the 49ers, KC Chiefs, golf and tennis, I enjoy getting together with friends. I would like to spend the rest of my life, sharing every beautiful (and not so beautiful) experience life has to offer with "Angel". I feel totally worthless without her. Null & Void.
Well, that's enough about me...how about you?

I've been kicking myself for the way I behaved....I feel like an A#1 first class, charter member jack-ass. Yes, I came on wayyyy too strong.
Yes, I have done some soul-searching...She's been married and divorced twice, and has children (grown) by both marriages. In other words, trying to put this nicely...two other guy's have been "inside her", and that hurts me deeply...but I love her, and I accept her the way she is.
Your responce of Sept 29th, you said that if I am able to break through, (she) will show me the deepest, most incredible love that (I) could ever know." That brought tears to my eyes, because that's the kind of love I want to show Angel.
No, this is not an obession...it's love alright...She is a beautiful woman physically, a little "heavy", but that's ok...but this woman has a personality that...I don't know...there is just something "cosmic" there. The first time I saw her in shorts, well, you know how thigh's look on a woman that's a little heavy...but I saw that, and I said to myself, "I don't care...there's MUCH more to this woman than just physical beauty.
And don't get me wrong...it's NOT UGLY..not at all! Yes, I do know of a favorite Mexican restaurant she likes, I could try to meet up with her "acidentally" as you put it, but that may be boarderline lying and I don't want to lie to her - at all. Besides, she's very sharp.
Infact, it's like she know's me pretty well sometimes.
She call's me a "sponge" because I pick up the SLIGHTEST detail about her. But she's the same way about me. Sometimes, we'd even finish each others sentences! It seem's like from time to time, she and I would make contact...but me not knowing her "trainned" mind, I screwed up every time.
She's on the internet alot, email and such...I wish she could read some of these letter's. I've looked at some other post, and didn't see her name or email...
i wanted to introduce myself real quick.
i was raised as a witness from the age of 10. i am now 23 yo.
i was disfellowshipped at the age of 19 for marrying a man who was studying.
I'm finding some very understanding ppl here. Especially from some of you that have responded to my post under relationships called "JW & NON-JW RELATIONSHIP". I look foward to coming here.

Due to my stupidity and selfishness. A mutual friend came back to work today...she went home to Russia for a while.
Today I asked her have you talked to (Angel) yet?
She said no, that someone told her that (Angel) and changed her phone number.
Gang, What can I do........? "Giving Up" or "Letting Go" is NOT an option here.
She said awhile back "I bet you think of me every minute of every day and night don't you?" Of course, I answered "Yes."
I still do. I miss her incredibly.
BUTALBEE...I didn't know you were of the female persuasion...can you shed any light on what I might do.....?

Since she left the store where we worked, she has said that she doesn't want to be friends, because I'm not a witness, and that a man & woman cannot have a plutonic relationship without romantic feelings coming into play.
I think she's afraid of having romantic feelings for me, and since I'm not a witness, maybe she thinks that would lead her away fom God.
She has since stopped answering my emails...she MAY even have blocked my address. And I learned, that if it HAS been blocked, no notice of the blocking will come back to me. So, I don't know if she has recieved my letters or not.
