Welcome... Relax, take a deep breath and say to yourself, "I am not a Jehovah's Witness". Then find your way into the big evil world and make freinds carefully, because after all ... people are people. You recognize that the friends you had are not interested in you, but in what you were to them. The move thing could work. Give it a shot. Just lay low and be depressed as we all know that that is the only Watchtower approved reason for slacking. Oddly everyone is depressed from the "light" load that Jesus imposes on them each week. You've lightened that by taking your leave. We salute you. W.Once

Welcome. Seems to me you should be playing the "I've been stumbled" card, since the elders mishandled your situation.

All the best

Welcome, and thanks for such an excellent story.
I often used to wonder if I wasnt a witness and witness came to my door would i listen. Well i now know i would not listen to them and I know exactly what to say to them!!!
I used to think the same and knew I would never have converted just because a couple of book sellers arrived at my door. So it always seemed terrible that God would kill billions who really had never been given a reasonable chance to convert.
I wouldn't bother trying to pretend to move. You will still have the issue of elders at some stage trying to chase you, and your daughter will cotton on soon enough that you are inactive. I recommend you continue with the fade just as you have already done.
It is probably time to make a clean break from the meetings, as when the elders finally do turn up and worry you are a threat to others you can say you have not spoke to any JWs is x number of months.
