How come Jehovah's witness people don't socialized with people outside of they're religion?

I want to date this guys at my job but he is a Jehovah's witness and I made eye contact put my most sexy clothes on and I said Hi sexy to him ever since he has been avoiding me.

Is it because I am not a Jehovah's witness?

[slatyb]

That's what cults do. They have fixed beliefs that are unsupported by reality. When cult members start socializing with others, they tend to leave the cult.

I said "Hi sexy" to him. That's a bit inappropriate for work. Instead ask someone to join you for lunch or dinner or whatever. It's the same thing, but a bit less emotional.

To put it plainly, in order to protect themselves from participating or engaging in practices that they believe are displeasing to God, Jehovah's witnesses are encouraged to avoid those who do not follow their religion. Dating is something they take very seriously, as they believe it should only be reserved for the purpose of marriage, and that marriage should only be between those who share the same faith.

Here is a link from JW. org that explains their views on dating

Because the watch tower society can't control outsiders, and without that control, they risk losing hold of their cult members

Did you used to be a Jehovah's witness?

[Agape93]

Nope, friend was.

Its forbidden, they also won't accept blood transfusion and other things.

But the social aspect is mainly to keep people trapt in the sect so they won't run away.

No. It's because you're fucking awkward, and there to work, not get dates.

Work romances rarely work out anyway. So behave yourself.

Sex out of wedlock is prohibited, so you flashing sex is kinda off-putting for a JW or indeed anyone who aims at being a true Christian.

[Asker]

Oh gosh another Jesus Christ FREAK!
Fuck you're stupid generation! You old people are such judgmental Karen's!
I am 25 years old and have more intelligence then that old brain of yours!

[smølf]

Your attitude is offputting to JW and other Christians, you are disrespecting theire beliefs.

[Asker]

I'm disrespecting they're believes old men?

Attitude is not off putting!
You Christian people are a bunch of judgmental Karen's!

You are not a good Christian yourself when you were in love in a threesome!

[smølf]

No, I was not a Christian at all for many many years. Your attitude is off-putting, not only to Christian men but to all men, and that's your problem. They will smash you, but not marry you.

[Asker]

Why are you judged me when you yourself had a threesome? I saw you're question!

I may be 25 but I am more intelligent than you!

[smølf]

Yes, you sound very intelligent...

[Asker]

So you would married a 30 year old virgin woman?

[smølf]

No, obviously not, what's your point?

[Asker]

JW men want younger woman because they are virgins!
Okay so you are into older woman?

[smølf]

Never was into older women, but that's beside the issue, JW's men are not all the same and it's not so much about vicinity as it's about religious compatibility.
If you became a JW, it would be a different matter, regardless of virginity, so it's not about virginity.

PS: I am not a JW as such for the time being, only closely coupled, and left when I was about 15 yo or so. Do consider going back through.

I'm not a Jehovah's Witness but I hear they can't date people outside the cult, which is probably why they're all inbred hicks.

[In_Trance]

because they're so easily susceptible to brainwashing
