I have not been lied to as far as I know. Ive never lied on this or any forum. I have omitted some details of my life because I am still technically active and am not ready to be identified. I dont want my witness relatives (few as they are) and close JW friends (even fewer) to be forced to make a choice about associating with me in public. I have left out details of some of my experiences for the same reason. One day, I will tell the whole story here.
One poster here, Choosing Life, I believe has figured out who I am, and I am fairly certain I know who that person is (notice my lack of pronouns when describing CL). They have not outed me and I appreciate that very much. I tell that person that their secret is also safe with me. They still have family in too. We have PMd back and forth a few times, comparing notes...I think we are both afraid to confirm the others identity. I respect that. As far as I know, they are inactive and not attending at all....good for them...soon I will be there too. I hope CL is doing OK....I appreciated their comments before I knew they were local, I am more appreciative now that I believe I know them personally.
Thank to all of you who are upfront and truthful....much better than what I experienced growing up in the Borg
