Wow.....that's a messed up story!!! It's ironic isn't it, in JW-Land, you are damned if you do, damned if you don't!!!! You can never be good enough, but if you try hard enough and appear perfect enough, then the other JW's become jealous and hateful towards you because they feel you are more righteous than they are!!!!! What a crazy way to live. Sad.

iv felt like im been shuned since i met my husband cos i met him on that jw conect sight some years back
from that point i had no freinds every one just seemed to stop talking to me
i felt like id married the devil himself, my dh is my soul mate and nicest man i ever met now if they couldnt see him for who he is just cos we met on a site then i dint want to be around em any more,
my dh came alway from america to be wi me and no one even tryed to befreind him,im in uk by the way
iv not gone ina wile now and no ones rang me to see why i havnt been iv seen wits in shops and they kinda run off hoping i dint see em and when i end up in front of em i say hello cos i feel akward not saying it, but iv only bumpted in to a few of the real old ones anyways,
if they found out why i dint wana go anymore which the elders know why then theyd deff prob shun me, as i had a blood transfusion to save my life when i gave birth to my babes and would do it again to.so il be dissed cos i wana be a good mother and lookafter my kids and be here for em but if i died id be forgoton then my kids would have no mom and theyd be happy down the hall for that instead.
thats not the only reason i dont go thoe theres many more,
at the mo im at the being pesterd moment every other week a perticular elder comes to my door trying to get me back even thioe iv told him i would have blood again and i wanted it donty care what they think u know ,he says im forgiven get that and that everything is forgoten so start new and come back refreshed that everythings ok,
im so mad
how can they say that i mean i was hoping theyd leave me alone now that they new as i never told em for a few years that id done it, i thought if i tell em id deff get dissfelowshiped and theyd leave me alone
but no its oposite now,
please can some one help me get rid of em in a nice way,
cos when he comes again which is in 2 weeks as my pathetic weak husband like me agreed to em coming round we cant say get lost we to darn nice to,
should i leave a note on door saying somat as i just cant face em.help.
^^^^^ Serin:
Well for starters, print off a copy of the new Elder's Manual from a source online. Read it. Then tell the Elder coming around that you have several issues concerning it, especially with the pedophiles, holidays, marking, etc, etc, and also that you'd like to discuss why the JW's were in bed with the UN as an NGO/DPI for nearly 10 years until they were caught red-handed by The Guardian and exposed. I'll be you $100.00....err.....100.00 pounds that you'll never hear back from the guy again.
Or, just tell them bugger off. Either way.

Later that eve, after a couple of drinks, I sent him a text: "Good job being loyal to god today!"
I've been so tempted to do that to certain people in my life. Say something like "oooohhhh! You made Jesus SO proud today!"
Again, I am (we are) still learning how to not give a shit what the uninformed sheeples think but it's coming to us easier than I expected. My wife is now all for Halloween after being unsure just a few weeks ago. I think she recognizes that people are judging us regardless of whether we celebrate holidays or not. Might as well let the kids have fun.
Im so happy for you guys
Hmmmm. I wonder if those Halloween stores carry any "Ted Jaracz" masks? It's probably in the "adults only" costume section. Too scary for kids. I'm mean the guy actually LOOKS demonized.
Congrats on your smooth exit from Brooklyn's equivalent of the "Hotel California!"

prob is im strting to feel sorry for him he keeps coming and i keep him at the door,
giving him like the crap of going out ill or sumat so he cant come in
then hel say il come back soon or sumat and like an idiot i say ok then hel say give me a time and date then im even more flushed and pathetic and just say anything so he goes but hes gona come back if i keep doing this.
teh thing is out of all the flipin drones at my hall him and his wife are the only ones that have ever been nice to me and help sometimes
so i feel bad for him,
im to nice
and stupid
i might leave a note saying somat just havnt decided what to put in it yet
plus even thoe i stoped going and all im still patheticaly brain wshed in some stuff and feel like im a demon worshiper for doing what im doing
and im one of the few bible beleivers left in the world who still thinks its real true and wants to follow it.
Ditto AwSnap,
Sweets I wish I could just give you a hug right now, your not by yourself
My eyes just light up when I go through the holloween section, and now I
can do it with pleasure, scince they think of me as a weak in the faith unbaptise
person. I may be weak in their faith, But not in Jesus, and I intend to enjoy this
life full speed ahead.
iv asked my kids if the wana do halowen and they told me no! so as for me trying to give em a good time in this new way of life of mine they feel uncomfortable with it as iv brain washed em for so long in to how bad it is, what kind of mother am i,
one min they cant do it then say they can por things are so confussed now.
SBC, I'm really sorry that your friend is now your ex-friend. I know you were ready for it...and yet a person never really is ready for it... I mean, it sucks...period. :(
I always think that maybe such-and-such person will just maybe be an actual human being....but no. Of course not. They're JWs.
Such a waste. so sad.
I think you handled it well. I often think of what I would say if I ran into someone. I think first and foremost I would like observers to know that they are JW's and when they go to their door to remember their Christ-like attitude.
As for Halloween, YES, you have to do it!!! I got the kids some halloween gear, and mommy went to a fun party on Sat when the kids were with their dad. If you PM me I will give you my FaceBook and you can look at the evil Satanic pics!!
