Viking 0 #1 October 8, 2001 Ok here is the deal. She shows up and makes my day. I walk in a start talking to her asking her how her weekend went general stuff like that, then move on to asking her what she is going to do for a certain assignment and she says i don't do you have yours so i can get an idea or two. So i go fast walking (ok running once i was out of sight) to my book sack and retreive my assignment which is skydiving related This conversation turns into a kinda of were ya from thing and i find out that she is from Pheonix(sp) and like to snow board and that she is moving to my Town!!!! Double score i was all excited and just about to ask for her # when she asks what road i live on i tell her and her eyes light up and i ask what up. She asks do you get any JW's knocking on your door?? I say yes everyonce and while and she proceeds to tell me that my street is in her "sector" thats right guys she is a damn JW i wanted to go put my head in the mounting press to releive the pain. But i just smile and say oh really!!! trying to hide the pain. Well needless to say this took the wind out of my sails and i ended up not asking her out i was too stunned!!! but i will try again on wend. I hope she isn't really hardcore and trys to convert me or somthing b/c that would just end what ever atraction i have to her. WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Slowfaller 0 #5 October 8, 2001 Oh man, that is kinda well...how can i put this. Hmm...funny or just bad luck. No its not funny, that really sucks if she is a hard core JW. She seems like a totally cool girl from what you've posted. Dont let it get you down, sure it might be wierd if you go to her parents house for dinner but if you really like her don't let it get you down.If it makes you feel any better, there was this girl I've been friends w/ for 3 years and was too much of a wuss to ask her to be " more than just friends ". Her and her family were Hardcore Christians but were really nice people. We went to prom and everything. Trying to drop a hint I even bought her a tandem for her B-day. One night I mustered up the courage to tell her how I feel and her response was she would only date me if I quit smoking and drinking. We then got in a big arguement of if you like the PERSON it shouldn't matter if they drink. I'm not a drunk, I just drink now and then. We'll we are still friends but I met a girl that is totally cool and have been seeing each other for a while. The christian girl and i are still friends and it took that arguement/conversation for me to get over her. So she is a JW, so what, she might be a really cool girl still.

Schroeder 0 #7 October 8, 2001 Huh.hmmm.Ok, Well, if I were you, don't change your original plan; yet. Find out stuff like the other's said: How hard-core? Does she have the rebelious side-slip streak in her? (she probably does, as she was likely raised JW, and at this age, is getting to the point where she questions stuff about her religion.) (not suggesting you turn her into a total deviant((just saying that it might not be so bad. rules-wise);)Stick to it dude, she does sound cool, and religion doesn't outlaw love.PSMy first cutaway was blonde. With a brown reserve that didn't work so well. Landed in a Pillow Research Facility.I'm still looking for that cut-away pillow too; and one day I'll find her, it. I've got a feeling she's on a new rig though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallingMarc 0 #8 October 8, 2001 I think it all depends on how bad of a mal it is... maybe he needs to cut away, maybe he can kick out of it and ride it down...If after taking a closer look it's baglocked, though... better chop it quick!I love skydiving metaphors...

Whiskeychick 0 #9 October 8, 2001 Aw hell, that bites. But I'm glad you're going to ask her out anyways, after all, nobody's perfect. Keep us updated on how things go, I'm rooting for ya! Sounds like you had a great jump on sunday too, now hurry up and get your A so we can jump together. I'm not sure when I'll see you again though, I quit packing and will be defecting to other dz's soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFKING 4 #10 October 9, 2001 Sorry, dude, but that was priceless ! You had me halfway out of my chair, then Shark kicked it out from under me ! Been there, done that...My advice is : pull red, pull silver, then get busy with the hook knife...if that doesn't work, then loosen your chest strap, loosen your leg straps, and jump out of the damn harness !The "still teary-eyed" PLF King Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,077 #12 October 9, 2001 > I say yes everyonce and while and she proceeds to tell me that my street is in her "sector" thats right guys she is a damn JWAh, so what? Ask her out anyway. Worst she'll say is no (either when you ask her or later when things progress.) I get a kick out of people like that anyway. I once had my neighbor try to convert me, and I sat with her for two hours quoting bible passages at her to refute what she was saying. (I knew those four years of catholic high school would come in handy!) It drives em nuts because they can't refute it - after all, it's in the bible - and they don't expect anyone else to know anything about the bible to begin with.Besides, I've been told much worse things by women I was after.

FallingMarc 0 #17 October 9, 2001 Now, don't you start...There's two country songs I like.

lazerq3 0 #19 October 9, 2001 Dude ask her out anyway . Religion doenst always mean a thing. Let me tell ya something , before I was married I started dating a hard core mormon, church every sunday ,paid her tything, her dad was a high priest(or what ever there called) well anyway after a couple months things kept getting kinda heavier and heavier, and of coarse most relgions arnet suppose to have sex before marriage, ESPECAILLY if your getting married in the temple, well wouldnt you know it one night her instincts gave in a booyaaa! So just because someone is religious doesnt mean a thing to me. morals are made to be broken! To top it off when we broke up I started hearing some stories about her a few months later of how wild she kinda got ...donnt know if thats hear say or not.And before you go off on me saying" I'm not in it to look for sex", I know this I'm just merly stating an experience I had with a person of high religious beliefs Who I thought would never go out with me. But nature is nature and will overcome jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viking 0 #20 October 9, 2001 ok update i posted the above while i was still at school and after i thought she had left. So i went to the School paper and got an assignment and happened to run into a female friend and told her what happened and she gave some advice which helped alot b/c i was just feeling like i had gotten kicked in the teeth. Anyway i go back tot he photobuilding and she is back!!!! My nerves are a little better and i strike up another conversation about her assignment, she then notices that i have one of those new Moutain Dew Code red things and asks what its like I said its got kind of a cherry flavor to it, and she said "Do you mind if i take a sip?" now mind you had already downed about half of it but i said sure go ahead she proceeded to slam back a mouth full with me watching HOLYSHIT SHE HAS NICE LIPS!!!!!!! i have to get a picture of her so you guys can see what she look like i swear she has the most perfect face i have ever seen!! and an ass to match. anyway she goes back in the dark room (mistake #1 not going with her) to get her prints out of the water wash, I hang around and just then my mom who has the car today calms me on my cell phone and tell me she is outside waiting on me. SHIT i go into the dark to look for her with the full intent of saying "Hey Cole look i have to to go but could i get your # so i can call ya later and set up somthing?" But as fate (what a cruel fuck he is ah) i could find her!!!! ahhhh no where did she go!! i must have gone through the hole building twice looking for her, but i had to go b/c the nurse who was keeping an eye on my grandpa and therefore allowing my mom to be out of the house shopping had to leave right away so i have the dark rooms one last look and then moped out to the car and sunk into my seat for the ride home. I told my mom why i was feeling so down and she recomended i not get involved with JW's i will not listen if i don't try its going to drive me nuts. So i end this msg with her face floating in my thoughts like a pleasent day dream. Yall have a good night. I am going to go day dream some more I swear you must have footprints on the back of your helmet - chicagoskydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jabeln79 0 #21 October 9, 2001 my Personal opinion, and everyne else may disagree but does religion even matter. If you really like her go for it dont hold back. I was raised catholic, but dont really consider my self to be any specific religion now. Havent been to church for years and actually disagree with organized religion, but i dont look down on anyone of any other relgion, My point of veiw is worship whom ever you want. Thats what freedom is all about right. so whether shes, Mormon, JW, Baptist Catholic, GO with your heart, religions all the same anyway just a few different words, and names.

Skystorm 0 #22 October 9, 2001 Religion certainly does matter. I went out with a guy for about 4 years who wasn't the same religion. We both tried hard to convert the other to his/her religion and in the end it back fired. He started blaming my religion for all our problems. And I also believe that love will overcome all... How wrong I was. This religion thing killed everything. It started when we were together for about a year. And for the remaining three years I fought with everything I had to keep this relationship floating. Yes, we had other problems but the religion thing was the biggest and the downfall of our love.Hang onto Heaven, when hell is on your back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinister69 0 #23 October 9, 2001 hey viking, sorry to tell you but if she is a hardcore JW, she won't go out with you unless you are too. Met a girl like that also, got along well together, we talked and all but she told me the religion forbade her from going out with anyone other than a JW. But I guess you can try anyways. All she can do is say no. just my .02 cents worth.Blue Skies!Sinister69A-38927 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #24 October 9, 2001 Quoteshe has the most perfect face i have ever seen!! and an ass to match. And that would be what aspect? Size, texture, features, openness,...Chop it, dude, unless you like riding a bike and look good in a white shirt. But then again, don't JW's abhor drugs like caffeine? Isn't there a buttload of it in Mountain Dew? Maybe she's not so strict.flyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
