if there was one thing that affected me most was, i would have to say the time i ran into a brother (while i was still in the borg) in the downtown area.. he said "just take one year off, no meetings, no service, no assemblies, no talks, nothing, just take a break, and you will see the wathctower differently, and your mind will clear.".
at the time i just shrugged it off as a bitter jw who left, now when i look back, it was probaly the biggest thing that someone ever said to me, and he was right, 100%.. was there a saying, an occurrence or a person that just got you thinking about how ridiculous the watchtower is ??
Any fool can make a rule, and any fool will mind it.
Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.
In what concerns you much, do not think that you have companions: know that you are alone in the world.
the wt says "no"... "when harry met sally" says "no"....what say you?????
is it possible to just be friends with the opposite sex?
and how do you feel when your significant other has a "best" friend of the opposite sex?
probably half of your female friends feel the same way too, you're a babe.
look who's talking! awww, thanks girl

Tink, I'd be willing to bet that at least some of those "guy friends" of yours are sexually attracted to you and are loser nice guys (see William Penwell's thread) who are afraid to say so. So they get what they can out of you (friendship) and fantasize about how someday you're going to make some sort of gesture towards them that tells them in no ambiguous way that you want to take the relationship to the next level.
actually you're not the first person to tell me this. i guess all i can do is hope it's not true, because i'd feel really creeped out if it was.

i only have two female friends. i'd die without my guy friends!! men are just easier to talk to and get along with, in my experience. it's hard to make friends with women.
now ain't that just the cutest thing?.
that's chewbacca.
"chewie" for short.
yeah, that's the same reason we got deshima and rosalie; this apartment complex doesnt allow pets. rosalie just passed away though...apparently female rats are really prone to developing malignant tumors :(
hey guys, thought i'd introduce myself...... my name is lars, and i'm 22... i'm majoring in education here in florida........ i was brought up as a jw, but i never really got into it... because the political side was so corrupt.... right now i'm just trying my best to be a good person, for myself and for god..... .
i'm a little rough around the edges... i shoot guns, race cars, ride bmx..... etc... so i guess my lifestyle didnt suit the jw's as well...... .
anyways, i searched around for a picture of myself, but i really dont have any "normal" ones......... .
welcome to the fold, cetme :)

that looks JUST like my pet rat Deshima!! i have a picture of her somewhere, i'll find it & post it later :)
just thought id say hi.... my name is sens, ive been out almost 3 months...(da).
i only know 2 other ex.jw 's ... so feel sort of isolated...(not that i didn't when i was still in the org but anyway...lol).
i actually have one question....whats the deal with the un thing?.
welcome to the forum, sens!you'll make lots of friends here
okay, so i got annoyed yesterday when someone told me i looked like debra winger.
i find her most unfeminine and unattractive.
but it doesn't piss me off half as much as when i'm told i look like liza minelli.
DR OH MY GOD YOU FINALLY DECIDED TO POST YOUR REAL PICTURE!!!
oh, wait...oops, my bad! :P:P:P
some of you probably read my last post, before i went camping http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/57573/1.ashx .

i had the best time of my entire life.
i'm so glad you two had fun, missy! thanks for the update!! :)
