Okay so I've got a BIG problem.......when I was in 4th grade i used to hang out with this girl i had a crush on and now....almost 5 years later.....i met up with her again on facebook (we went to different middle schools so we never saw each other again after elementary school). But we started talking on facebook and i really like her and she likes me back too and i really wanna go out with her but my religion (Jehovah's Witness) doesn't accept dating when i'm this young and u can only date other jehovah's witnesses and i really believe in my religion and i dont want to sin against god....

you'll have to make a choice: either disobey your religion, wait, or find someone else.
you could still remain best friends, though.
hope i helped :)

Matrix hit it right on.
You're a jehova's witness. I'm sure god wants you to be happy. Go for it, but whatever you do. Do NOT ask her to change her religion for you.

As previously stated, you have a few options:
One: Disregard your religions laws and precepts that, quite frankly, are very questionable and objectionable to begin with. Only date those who are like you? That sounds very, very wrong to me. I recall certain ethnic groups doing the same during the Civil Rights era. I'd think, or hope rather, that your g_D and your religion would want you to be happy.
Two: Let it go. That's it. Your religion states you can't do anything so what is there to do?
Three: What defines "dating"? A kiss? Holding hands? Saying "I love you?". Have your pastor/priest define dating and perhaps work around it.
Also, as sXe-Amo-X stated, DO NOT ask her to change religion for you. That's wrong in every sense of the word.

i was brought up to be a jehovahs witness, major pain in the butt if im honest, i had my first girfriend (in secret) at 13, i stopped going to the meetings and whatnot when i was 15 but if im honest do what you want to do, whatever makes you happy then i say go for it no matter what the elders and other people say!!

You have to decide what you want more- her, or your religion.Good luck mate!
