When I was a JW, we were very hospitable - always inviting people over. Yet, if we got invited out once or twice a YEAR, that was incredible. I remember having people over for supper and thinking what a nice time we had getting to know each other, only to be treated like a complete stranger again at the next meeting.
Now, there's barely a weekend that goes by that we are not invited out!!
And there's some on here that I have really come to care about and the only thing that keeps us from hanging out in person is distance.....

I could have written those words myself. We always had people over, I was always the one to arrange going away party's and such. Everyone was like I am so busy with field service and Spiritual things to arrange things thanks for doing it. The PO once told me I have more energy then most. No I was always dead tired but come on we are supposed to be there for each other right?
We never got invited out. Now it is just like what you said I do not have the time do as much as I would like with my worldly friends and I truly wish I was closer to many on this board.
