  I recently walked into a KH thinking I was going to a friend's memorial service, but we had gotten the date wrong -- I walked into the WT study, lol, and immediately left, but you couldn't tell the difference, I swear. The mood was so quiet, serious, somber and boring, it could have been a memorial service.

  We went for a meal last night, and she asked me lots of spiritual questions then she said "I am worried you're rubbing off on me instead of me rubbing off on you"

  So a little of what I am saying is getting through. We have established I am not going to meetings aswell.

  Thanks guys.

  I AM NOT GOING TO MEETINGS

  But I might get weak again in the future

  Dear Kate/Sam

  I never was a JW, but I think I understand a lot about them/it.

  You have a new life going for you, a bloke you're getting on well with, and a lot to look forward to.

  My advice would be walk away and don't be tempted to turn around and look back. You don't want to end up as a pillar of salt, do you?

  Thanks Joe,

  I understand what you say. Logic agrees emotions acts differently. It's the love bombing that draws me back everytime. They do love me, they are just trapped

  Kate you strike me as a friendly, positive and likeable person. They would warm to you wherever you go. My advice would be to join a group that deserves you and not one whose affection is conditional on your beliefs.

  Xant, thank you for your encouragement but I still feel a sense of loss and hatred towards the WT for separating me from my loved ones......these individuals can never be replaced. I just found out that one has liver cancer and I really want to be there for her to support her
