OTWO. Who can say what will or won't be! If the power tripper or any other brown nosing fool gets to be the uber-over-sneer they might be looking to make a sweep.
If you tell current PO you are sympathetic would it put you back on the radar?
I was only faded 18 months and after the CO's visit the cu rra nts came hounding me.
You just never know!
OTWO, My situation is identical to yours. I find out about DCs, SADs and CO's visits after the fact because of the change in my wife's routine. I want to know as little as possible about what goes on with the brothers, not because I don't care, but because any kind of interest would be perceived as a sign that may be coming back into the fold...In 18 months of inactivity I didn't receive any phone calls from the elders and 6 months ago two of them came for a short visit that was limited to my door step. At that time I made it clear that I wanted to be left alone. They are respecting this at this time but with a new CO you never know what to expect...he may want to know why a MS went missing in action. Occasionally my wife invites friends for dinner, but she is cautious about who she chooses...and conversations are limited to small talk. The only ackward moment is when she asks one brother to pray before the meal. Then again I am not overly friendly and cautious about getting involved in any JW-related talk.
Mamalove, yes I believe she made a passive attempt to get an emotional reaction with the part of the news about the health stuff.
Smiddy, it's exactly the same thing as a P.O. Coordinator of the Body of Elders. I think "overseer" in the title allows for that guy to be singled out in lawsuits or something. It's a stupid change, but they are about changing yet remaining the same.
Thanks, EP.
Stone Wall, I hadn't thought about the wording. I guess it helps a thread to put sexual inuendo in the title. I might try harder to make it worse.
SST, again- they are all about changing yet remaining the same.
Designs, Paladin, ssn587: I love being left alone and hope it continues. If not, I will push so far to make them back off hopefully.
Thank you, Found Sheep for your kindness.
P.O.N., I do believe any calls would put me back on the radar. I will stay below detection if I can.
NVR2L8, thanks for the story. The new C.O. so far has not done anything different, but it could be that the old P.O. was giving him reasons to leave me alone. We will see. It just might stay the same. Might not.
