It is natural for people to want to try to work out why something has happened to someone. Doesn't necessarily mean they don't believe you but that they want the full picture to understand the whole story!

Amen!

OnTheWayOut

OnTheWayOut, for one who is supposedly taking me at face value, you sure are making a lot of judgement calls, sounding a lot like my elders.

I made no judgments. I suggested 6 possible ways that you were telling the truth, 4 of which allowed for
you to be telling the entire truth without withholding information. I did that because you swore you were
telling truth. In those 4 remaining ways, I suggested that they view you a certain way. I never said you
were crazy or needed a bath. I merely tried to figure out what the elders might think.

You said yourself that they told you to accept what they tell you and think about it. That indicates that they
think you already know the problem. You didn't say until page 3, your 11th comment in this thread that you
did talk to the C.O. 2 years ago about this. That would have been helpful upfront. You indicated that he said
not to question the elders. Again, that sounds like he felt that you understood the real problem, so he didn't
need to explain it.

Nothing was my judgment except the last part where I must include those possibilities in my face value or
else believe that you are a troll.

My C.O. was totally inadequate to address my situation, so yours could be also. I gave plenty of room for that.
But if it takes all that prodding to get a bit more information out of you, then we might hurt your feelings to
actually help. Again, nothing is meant to do that. Nobody wants to be thought of as crazy, smelly, disruptive,
or whatever else, but I put those possible motives out there for your elders to make you think of what else could
possibly be the problem.

I know of no JW's that go to zero meetings and are told that their field service slips won't be accepted, yet they
go to the Hall after hours to clean and continue to offer the WT literature. You must know more, or need to be
jogged in your memory. I go back to my advice before if you don't- RUN.

Keys! Are you kidding? I quit pioneering 3 years ago and was DF'd this year, hubby DA'd this year. We both still have our keys.

I for one, do not believe any of this story. There was a subtle change in her way of communicating as this story is unfolding. Until today I knew nothing of the Trevor/Linda hoax. I went back and searched until I found the thread which explains it all. Maybe it is all to fresh for me, For I too cried and was emotionally affected by what turned out to be NOTHING! Time will tell.

We do not continue to offer WT literature, because we do not get any literature. We do however talk about Jehovah to others, but like I said do not bring up meetings. As for the only so called 'reasons' you can take me at face value,, well you are judging, how is it not possible that these men, like I mentioned in my opinion, have problems making them uable to deal with elder issues. One, like I said, has had several mini- strokes, but is a 5th generation witness.. he is PO and before him his dad was PO until he died. 20 members of his family, 2 of which are pioneers, another is an elder and 2 ministerial servants, three generations in this hall. One elder is a pioneer and service overseer, and in my opinion jealous of my husbands sincerity and opportunities,, he has a father who is an elder and a brother that is an ms and 12 members of his 3 generation family also in the hall. The third elder, is bi-polar,, very lovable, but very,,unstable i guess is the word and misses lots of meetings. I often thought maybe we knew too much,, but there is no real bad things in all this to have lots of family in a hall,, would be wonderful,,, especially if one gets ill. But no one likes to do the dirty work I suppose. We were gone for a week on camp trip and was asked why we did not clean the hall, my husband just apologized,, i am steaming.

Subtle change in my way of communicating? Please, this is very hard for me and i feel like i have been met with a lot of animosity here... and i guess all have decided i am this trevor thing

as for your question yknot, that is why i am here, i cannot take anymore, and am trying to figure things out, and thought i would get some sort of empathy here, or something

eclipse

Why don't you turn your keys in, and

hand them a bill for cleaning services rendered.

mrsjones5

Inactive you are getting empathy here, just don't expect everyone to believe you or automaticly jump on your bandwagon, it doesn't work that way here...this isn't the hall, it's not all or nothing or black/white here. There is a lot of back and forth, debating, talking, and sometimes yelling here. But there is a lot of support here too.
