Women Who Must Recover Years Lost in the Watchtower

Thinking of Dating?

As was mentioned earlier, Witnesses were told not to date non-Witnesses, and dates with other Witnesses were to be chaperoned so that the two were not left alone. After considering the selection of men available in the local Kingdom Halls, many JW women looked outside of the religion for emotional and sexual fulfillment, which brought a great deal of guilt upon them. Thus began a cycle in the lives of some JW women of getting involved with non-Witness men, feeling guilty, being manipulated and later abandoned by these men or abandoning them, only to fall into the same pit again. Sadly, they never experienced the JOYS of romance, due to the guilt and ostracism by their fellow Witnesses.

Are you too afraid to start over, now that years have gone by? Do you feel you are no longer in your prime, or that you are no longer desirable to most men?

My own observations tell me that a woman has to be downright UGLY not to be able to attract a good man that she could fall in love with. Now if she is ugly, there is plastic surgery that will cure facial abnormalities, large noses, wrinkles and warts. If you feel too fat, realize that a lot of men like robust wives (big, beautiful women), and such men are often quite attractive. Or, you can find a good weight loss program. Whatever it takes to make you feel good about yourself should be considered, as long as it is safe and worth the cost to you. Why let the Watchtower ruin the REST of your life??? (As if several years weren't enough?) Men often fall in love with a woman due to her character, i.e., her outgoing personality, her sense of humor, etc. more so than her youthfulness or numerical rating (a "10" is in the eyes of the beholder). If you look at yourself in a negative light, others will perceive that and see you the same way. If you begin to see yourself in a more positive light, you will shine and attract others to you. Women who have a good sense of spirituality and depth in their lives are all the more attractive, by the way!
