  i was raised a witness when i was a young child ,i have not been a believer for a long time and never thought i would be intrested again,i've meet a beautiful person that is a witness who is trying to get out of a abusive marriage the've been apart for more than a year and a half,he was a witness but is not any more he use's there children against her for a lot of different reson's he curently has more than one girl friend but continue's to abuse my friend mentally and more.

  i've changed my life for the better in the last few years and am now considering becoming a witness again not only for me but for helping me keep my life on the right track,she has helped me realize alot of things in the last few months where i can improve my self,her oldest son resents me for being friends with his mother because i am not a curent member but this is because he is being couched by his father ,pretty sure it has nothing to do with me he dosn't really know me.with her son i'm pretty sure that no matter what i do his feeling will remain the same,does any one have any advise that might be able he help.my friend is at a breaking point with being pulled in so many directions i want to be able to help her but i dont know what to do.

  Only thing you can do is be there for her, she has to make her own decisions. Running back to the JW's won't solve anything, it will only confuse things further. If you are a JW.. you are no longer a safe harbor, you are a "brother" It puts you into an entirely different catagory.

  Be her friend and a shoulder to cry on.. nothing more. I married the shoulder that carried me out of my abusive relationship, so I should know.

  You made positive changes in your life, you can maintain them.. you don't need a committee of elders to keep you in line.

  Your world view as a JW and what it is now

  by Axeman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have a friend that has left the witnesses but the mindset is still in his head.

  it affects the way he views life and his future the years he has left.like the world is so bad he can't find a place for himself in it a future to invest in.

  he is thinking of going back to them they offer the only solution that he can relate to wipe it out ( harmageddon ) and start again its like he needs reprogramming to enjoy life

  If you can.. point him to the internet and sites like this one, reprogramming your brain with out the insite of those who have been through it is a looong struggle. He can get a lot of help here or on other sites.

  What a cool idea... maybe we should make some JWD banners for the neighborhood just in time for memorial?

  I can see it now: Ex-witnesses unite: www.jehovahs-witness.com Witness the real "truth"

  Could be fun...

  The Heat Is On!

  well, as the memorial approaches again, the pressure directed at me from the remaining jw's in my family to attend is getting to be too much.

  i'm at the point where i just want to yell out "leave me the f@$k alone!

  "......but i know i cant say that, so i'll just make up some excuse like i did last year and just not go.

  My family quit asking me after the third year or so of not going...

  Hang in there, they'll get tired of it eventually.

  hi all, i found this on the net, this is really sad.

  i've finally decided that to get the real news about what goes on in the world you have to go outside of the information controlled us news networks.

  five largest motion picture companies mentioned above

  If you are getting your news from the movie theater you got bigger problems. Everyone knows that Hollywood has a jewish majority.. that's why Mel Gibson's balls were in the frying pan (it was a stupid thing to do, anyway you look at it)

  If you are getting all your news from the 5 O'clock bubble headed bleach blond.. well you get what you deserve, mis-information.

  Even the newspapers are slanted by whom ever runs them.. that's why you have to use your Brain and figure out for yourself what you want to believe and what is bs.

  Quoting "jewwatch" web site isn't making a very good point, other than to show what a slanted viewpoint can come up with.

  There are too many people with an agenda in charge of "informing" the public. Which goes back to what I said before... unless you see it with your own eyes... you can't be certain of what is truth and what is lies.

  hey.. that kinda rhymed.. eyes.. lies...

  ok..I'll crawl back under my rock now.

  back when i asked for advice about staying together for the kid/s, i should have listened and just gotten the divorce.

  i was just too effing spineless to do it though.

  huge mistake.

  The easiest person to fool is yourself. Don't beat yourself up over it, just realise you're human and everyone does this and move on. If you had left earlier you might have wondered what would have happen if.. now you know and can move on.

  This is the hard part, making the desicion.. after that it's just letting the ball roll. There is a lot of life to live out there, don't let him keep you from it anymore!!
