I got one right, but forgot to list my "challenge question."
How about this one: "I'm your number one fan"

Country Girl - That's "Tombstone" - my favorite movie!!! I have probably watched it twenty times. Here's my favorite quote from that one: "My hypocricy goes only so far."

Angel, welcome. I haven't posted in a while, because I am trying to move on with my life and "wean" myself from this board, but your post caught my attention and I felt the need to respond. I began a relationship with a JW who had been disfellowshipped during the split-up of his first marriage. He had also lost his job and was going through a very rough time emotionally. We married, and he was the man of my dreams until about this same time (Memorial time) last year. Within a period of only a few short months, he started going back to meetings, got reinstated, and turned into a monster that I didn't even know. The elders and his JW family got to him - - they convinced him that to atone for his sin of leaving the org and marrying a "worldly" woman, he would need to be the most zealous Witness to regain Jehovah's favor. He used the same tactics as your boyfriend .... nasty words, hateful comments, anything to drive me away. You see, his leaving me would not have been condoned, so he wanted me to do the dirty work for him. Eventually, when he realized I wasn't going to leave him, he convinced the elders that I was a "spiritual endangerment" to him so he would be able to leave me and stay in good standing in the congregation.
It's difficult to put the whole experience in a few words, and I can't begin to explain the emotional anguish I have been through in the past year. This cult stole my husband from me and I hate them for it. Somehow, though, I can't hate him for what happened. I know he is an adult and responsible for his actions, but he was put in the position of choosing between me and the only way of life he had ever known (he was raised a JW from the age of 2.) I didn't force him to choose - - his family and congregation did.
Please PM me if you want to talk. I know exactly what you're going through. God bless you.

Love or Hate Field Service
by XBEHERE inhow many of you went out in the field because you had to or because you wanted to?
if because you had to, how did you feel while doing it?
just curious.
-
worldlygirl
I've never been a JW, so I've never been in field service. But, I was wondering, for those of you who hated going..... Did you ever have anyone show interest in your message and think to yourself, "Oh my God what am I getting these people into???!!!" Just curious.

Did you ever catch an Elder doing something "Un-theocratic"?
by tazmaniac ini remember finding 2 week old lottery tickets in a elders car i was working on.
he said they must have been from the previous owner.
he owned the car for over a year and a half and the lottery tickets were just a little over two weeks old.

An arrogant JW elder works for me and I have heard him use the "f" word and the "s" word many, many times. (Uh, and I think he occasionally calls me the "b" word behind my back! )

Just plain rude!
by Stefanie inwe went to a chinese restaraunt this weekend.
the whole experience started off bad.
the minute we walked in, the waitreses looked me up and down and started talking chinese loudly to each other.

I don't know if this is a common practice at Chinese restaurants, but it seems familiar to me. At the one nice Chinese restaurant near where I live, they seem to hate children. Whenever I would take my daughter there, they would put a big sheet of plastic on the floor like they were thinking she was going to make a huge mess (this was about the time she was 4-6 years old.) One day she dropped the salt shaker and chipped the side of the plate. The waitress added $15 to the bill for the lousy cheap plate. I told them to kiss my ass and just paid for the food and left. Never been back.
