Thank you Kate.
Yes, I'm intending to do what you suggest.
You know how over years n decades we develop a close loving relationship with our parents, brothers and sisters, spouse, children, a close friend or two.
Well, this girl and I instantly mutually became aware of this same "bond" within seconds of first meeting. It's really something to experience.
Unfortunately, I knew nothing about JWs, eventually handling things improperly, causing her to "freak out" because of her JW mental-emotional "conditioning".
We care deeply for each other, BUT she's awol, tormented, trying to reconcile this with her JW beliefs.
Better late than never, I've been on this site trying to learn about JW. It's not just JWs that have mental emotional scars, anyone who is alive experiences that.
Most, but not all, of the folks here are loving, empathetic, and sincere.
Being an outgoing guy I've probably spoken to at least 50 people in my city trying to get their opinion. To be honest, it's been 100% pleasant compared to the venom that can pop up around here.
She happens to be a cute black girl, so I've had a tendency to speak to black folks. Half of the guys basically said "don't give up". The other half said "she's not worth it, find someone else".
All the gals have said something like "give her time, give her space, she knows you love her, just let her know you are there for her".
Every single one of these persons has given me all the time I need to discuss this. And, they understand it all. And they know about JW.
As "trying" as this is for me, it's got to be 1,000x more difficult for her.
Kate: thank you for being "normal" and "optimistic". It's appreciated. God Bless you!

Thanks Oneyedjoe
I understand what you are saying.
I've been a selfish person my whole life. No more. It's not about me.
At first I had heartache, but no longer.
She is a Beautiful soul, but she is so tormented. So, I'm here to help her.
I agree that She, alone, has to make the right decision. I'm hoping and praying that she does.

OneEyedJoe,
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate your opinion.
You could very well be right and that's the way it will turn out in the end.
"...you have no obligation to this girl".
But that's the thing. In my soul I feel a spiritual obligation. I don't need her love or her warm body. I need to help her. I have unlimited girl friends.
It can't be explained with just words here.
We'll see. I'll post the result when the time comes.
Thanks Man!

"You just need to work out if the person likes you enough either to leave or to break the rules for you."
Yes sir, infinite patience, that's what I'm trying to do.
I'm sure I look like a fool, but it's cool.

What is more likely to strengthen a relationship?
(1) Greet her for the "New Year's Holiday" or not?
(2) Mention religion or never mention religion?
Thank you kindly !
