Jason, I can totally identify with your post. When your raised in the orginization, its a huge part of who you are. Im sure part of me will always be the JW girl in the back of my mind. I feel almost like I cant really identify with the rest of the world quite yet. And I also find myself being way too trusting.Eventually Im sure missing the old friends will go away for both of us. Your an awsome guy, and I for one am really glad I met you!

Dreams of old friends
by back2dafront inever since leaving 4 years ago, at least twice a week i have dreams of old friends, and sometimes i wake up crying, laughing, etc., depending on what it was about.
the ones that bother me the most involve me walking down columbia heights seeing old bethelite friends, and they all look at me weird because i have dreds and earrings now, but they still talk to me.
but they have this look of disgust on their faces, like i'm not good enough for them anymore.

Thanks, Dazedgrl

Hi, I have been reading post for over a month before getting up the nerve to register. Its been really interesting listening to all of your perspectives. I was raised a JW. My family is what youd call very spiritual. I havent attended a meeting in over a year. I am very confused about what exactly it is that I believe. I have wondered if what I have been taught is the truth for awhile. But only recently had the nerve to ask outloud. Even as I'm writing I'm thinking in the back of my mind, what am I doing posting on a site like this? The big A has always been a scary word. But one of my biggest dilema's has been..... Why do my questions come at such a high price? Why cant i wonder without people questioning my sanity, among other things? Its very hard to stand up to people you have loved and respected your entire life and be honest. I'm very nervous about what to do. I have three great kids and really want to do the right thing by them. I guess I'm hoping that I will get some feedback on why some of you came to the conclusions that you did. Thanks!

growing up scared of Armageddon
by bittersweet ini was just curious if any of you growing up in the truth were overly scared of armageddon?.
when my mom came into the org.
in the 70's,the only so called kids book was the paradise lost book.the pictures in that book scared the pants off me!at night when i was lying in bed,if i would hear a loud plane go over head,or there was a thunder storm,i was sure it was the start of armageddon and i would be sooooo scared.i was wondering if i was the only one overly scared,or if their were others.. also,was anyone out there extremely frightened of the demons?i would hear all these crazy experiences of people having problems with demons,and i was sooo frightened they would come bother me.maybe i was just a big old scaredycat,but if any one else has any experiences,please post them!
