she's just a friend

by daytona27 in

i was married a long time, divorced and alone for the last couple of years.

i consider myself content.

i've come to terms with being alone and the prospect that i may not be with someone for a good while.

hey bro i gotta admit i see where your comeing from regarding the best part of a relationship is the companionship. i feel that way as well, but you got to consider..... shes approaching you, REPEATEDLY, your obviously not a man whore..... cause you havent had sex with her to this point... and i think that really impresses her.......... but it wont forever.

fact is you both have been in dark places relationship wise...... you could totally be feeling the exact same thing for each other but are both to scared to stick your toe in the water to see if its warm. and bro holy sh** she was topless.... yeah gentleman that you are you didnt take advantage..... but some people gotta drink a little so they can blame it on the booze if they do crazy sh**..... wont even be more than buzzed...... but need that in order to break out of their shell.

job situation....... can you get out of the transfer...... and would you want to... would it benefit you finacially..... and what i mean is..... your gonna relocate.... are you making 40k a year and this job will pay you 42k? or is it you make 40k and this job is 60k....... the small raise could be rejected for the hottie........ the other well might be unable to refuse that difference. would you forsake this new job for her if she worked out?

think about those things....... and start planting some seeds bro.... tell her that you have been haveing so much fun with her its unreal....... then make better comments........ ive enjoyed going out this weekend more than i enjoyed 14yrs of marriage........... work your way up... dont drop that bomb untill you have made several comments. minor things at first.. let her know how much you enjoy being around her. then STOP

go talk to her sister.... get her opinion. you say you and her sis are tight... use that relationship to get another opinion from someone that loves her. if her sis gives you the green light then go talk to her. i know its easier to just cut her out of your life and move on.......... but what if she is better than 80percent perfect for you........... they dont come along very often...... hell she could be 90pecent perfect for ya....

in the end....... your moveing on to that job......... UNLESS SHE WORKS OUT. and maybe even if she is awesome........ hell maybe she will relocate with ya....... but if it didnt work out......... your out of town so who cares.......... you wont have any awkwardness. speak with her and say that you really have been getting to know her..... make a few comments about things she likes that you like....... details to show you have been tottally paying attention. then ask her...... say hey i value your friendship immensely but i cant help but wonder if there could be more between us. ive had more fun with you than i have EVER had with ANY woman....... so you interested in moveing beyond just friends?

a year from now..... if you do the easy thing and just move........ you will have dreams about her and always wonder what coulda been......... or a year from now you KNOW that you guys wouldnt work out... whether due to her issues or yours............. or a year from now you will have her by your side and wonder how you ever made it through life without her.

but seriously...... 25%....... shes been REPEATEDLY asking to hang with you

25% you guys have a bad a$$ time together........... CLOTHES SHOPPING...... WTF

50% she showed you the twins in a hot tub.............. dude that should be 100% of a HELL YES

you got about 1000% likelyhood that she does in fact wanna hook up with you...... dont waste the short time you got left.

Got told off by a born again-er

i was enjoying a smoke on my little porch at my apartments and my neighbors pull up.

the woman got out, pointed her finger at me and demanded what that "thing" in my hand was.

i proudly held up my hand with a fag in it.

primitivegenius

honestly its the fanatics.............. dosent matter what they beleive........ wish we could send all the fanatics someplace far and away from us.

friend of my wifes........ attends a church and absolutely thinks the sun rises and sets with it....... she got rid of all of her music.......... except for the christain stuff. to me thats a first sign......... it dosent bother me when someone chooses to listen to christian music but when you dump your old stuff........ and i dont mean the music thats got swearing and bad things condoned....... i mean micheal jackson....... the bee gees......... whatever. if you get rid of perfectly acceptable good music............ cause its not holy enough......... whats up.

her pastor gave a sermon right after the tsunami hit and said it was sent by god to destroy the sinners.......... i was like WTF......... barely able to keep from actually saying it. i said that man is a complete moron and left it at that. same church has a SINGLE woman who is over their MARRIAGE MINESTRY............. shes single and has NEVER been married. so obviously shes qualified.

fanatics take things and make a big deal out of nothing. im totally not a fanatic.... i have what i belive..... and i dont try and make everyone belive how i do. i dont smoke and barely drink, but i dont yell at peeps when they do. those fanatics just need to live their own lives and let others alone.

Tell me about the weirdos in your congro.

by karter in

we had a guy who used to bang on about natural remedies.. at the doors and meetings he would tell everyone what was wrong with them and what to take to remedy it he even told the brothers of for sell coke at the assemblies.. however there was know remedy for his mental health apart from that he was a fat little porker who looked like you could grow spuds on his teeth and washing wasnt big on his agenda last i heard he joined scientology.. we had 4 sisters in the congro pregnant one nut case confessed to the elders he was father to all of them.. one sister used to attack the po's wife in the kh then stand up through the meeting and abuse at the speaker after that they would call the sike team it wasnt uncommon for her to go door to door at midnight.. last i heard she became a counsellor..

primitivegenius

oh we had some good ones...

my dad studied with one in particular........ lived in the hood......... was on drugs and mental.... sometimes he would be there sometimes not. dad finally stopped studying with him.......... when one day dad came over and he had a pistol on the coffee table......... he kept looking at dad....... then looking at the gun....... then loooking at dad............ dad ended it early and never went back lol.

had this bat sh** crazy woman move into our cong....... she obviously was marching to the beat of a differnt drum......... had two sons and a hot as hell daughter. momma was polynesian and her children were mixed with japanese. the sons were always in jail.......... and the daughter was pregnate by 16......... she got pg at a district convention........ instead of rolling to the convention(myriad gardens) and risking being talked to for useing more than one paper towel to dry her hands............. she stayed at the hotel............ and when her mom left........ the guy she met the night before came over......... 9 months later she had the baby lol.

momma was the type to try and get others to help her out............. at every opportunity. so she was being evicted from a house she was renting........... so some peeps in the cong wanted to help her.......... and then when they saw how horrible that house was.......... dog sh** everywhere and just nasty old food piled up to the ceiling......... they started to clean the place...... cause GASP theydidnt want to bring reproach upon jehovah......... lol. so they spent two weeks cleaning that nasty mother just so when she left it wouldnt leave a bad witness. knowing what kinda persons they were people still kept calling on her just to count time lol.

ahhh so many whackos so short of time lol

Now That We're Outta The "Organization" Can We Be Who We Really Are?

by minimus in

jw
friends

when you come here, are you comfortable to be who you really are?

can you express how you truly feel?

i know that not everyone may "understand" who we are, but being out of the organization and its myriads of rules, we should be able to be comfortable.

primitivegenius

ok can we be who we woulda been.......... unfortunately NO is the answer.

can we become someone closer to whom we woulda been......... or can we change our lives to do what we want? the answer to that is HELL YES.

were we all twisted to some extent or another by that cult......... so that we will never completely be free of it...... im gonna say there is a very high likelyhood of that. dosent mean we cant become more than who we were, or that we cant live our dreams. just means that certain words will trigger jw flinches.

there is a christian song and the title escapes me........ damn good song... but in it he says "im so happy to be in the truth" and i cant listen to it.............. because of jw upbringing...... stupid yes......... can i help it.... no.

we are free of the shackles of brainwashing but the conditioning stays far longer than it should. we can choose to sleep around, we can choose to use mind altering drugs and alcohol, we can also choose to drive a 2 door car to college so we dont have to wash windows. we can listen to metallica or eminem and can give every single kingdum hell the finger as we drive by.

these are all starts to becomeing who we want to be....... or who we want to want to be. wheres our balance, we cant spend all our time hateing the gb otherwise we wont have time to LIVE our lives. if i choose to get a hobby or take up a profession the society bans...... its my decision, and consequently another step to who i really am.

in dealing with my jacka$$ jw family and how ive been slightly twisted by their selfrightous judgemental attitudes, and blatantly false teachings............... im gonna always be effected but its not gonna stop me from becomeing a me and living a life that i actually enjoy and like.

Hi from a new member in North Florida!

i've been a lurker on the forum for a while and wanted to finally register and post something.

i'm 23 years old, and was born and raised a jw.

i've been out "officially" now for about a year, although i've really been out since i was 16.

primitivegenius

hey welcome to jwd. weve all been there at one time or another, leaving a cult that forces you to associate with only other cult members and not only that...... but to alienate any other friends or family you might have. by refuseing to associate with them...... or by preaching to them and running them off.

quite normal to leave that cult completely socially retarded and lost. dont mind the comments about you still being judgemental......... it takes years to get that out of your system.... trust me i know.

when you leave the cult there are stages you go through....... you first leave and you know all they taught you was total bull but you dont know what the bible really says....... you doubt everything they said untill its proven to you. or you reject religion completely.

heres some truths that might help you....... not all worldly people are immoral..... its true that some are totally immoral and sleep with whom ever they choose whenever they want......... but then again....... so do some elders dont they. now being raised a witness you got a totally skewed view of dateing and marriage. you dont need a chaperone, and are perfectly entitled to do what you want with whomever you want (just like the "immoral" people) its just up to you and your conscience as to who you pick and whether you want a relationship or not.

i would recommend that you look at your own personal interests.. what do you like to do for fun. then when you have that narrowed down.... look for clubs or places where that particular thing is done or talked about.... and look for people to date that share those same interests. make friends with other people shareing those interests will put you in contact with others they know who like the same things........ next thing you know you will find a girlfriend/boyfriend who at least has one interest in common withyou.

good luck in breaking free of those residual chains the wt leaves on all of us

i was at work in my office as my boss jokingly calls it.a lady walk in to get 2 tires she had ordered put on.i have her sit down to wait because all of my bays were full.i noticed she was reading a small paper bound book.she was underlining it as she read.i got the feeling she may be a jw.i wanted to ask her but i didn't.my number one job at work is to make customers feel comfertable and i thought telling her i'm a raging apostate might make her feel uncomfertable being in the same room with me.. when she opened her walet to give me her visa card i saw the blood card.it confirmed my suspitions of her.. you will be happy to know i got my apostate cooties all over her service car and visa card..

primitivegenius

Surely the WT wouldn't LIE about motel/hotel accommodations?!?

by RisingEagle in

friends

i was eating lunch with 3/4 of my active jw family earlier today and they were bemoaning the idea that they were going to have to leave the central oklahoma area very early tomorrow morning to find a room so they could attend an assembly on the otherside of the state.

they had tried calling the 'approved' hotels and motels in the town where the assembly is being held and they were all booked.

so that left them looking at the rest of the approved list and having to travel as much as 50 miles away to get a room.

primitivegenius

lol yeah they makeing my 80 yr old grandma drive all the &^%$#@! way from sapulpa to muskogee for that damn assembly........ LOVELY..... fortunately she probably wont go. when the conventions are held in tulsa my damn parents roll up there and stay with her and will take her to sit in those awefull hard arse chairs....... untill her hips and back hurts to bad for her to go..... so she will miss a day or two..... lol.

wonder if i shouldnt point out to my folks that staying with family ISNT staying in SOCIETY APPROVED rooming lol.

my dad knows the man in charge of going to see these hotels and working out the arraingments........ so he has given dad recommendations as to which rooms are the nicest before .............. good ole elder buddy network i guess.
