Vacationing with a Witness

    I remember a Dub (baptized, still in good standing) girl from a neighboring congregation who was seeing a married police officer in our VERY small town.

    She and her little Dub friends always shunned my sis and I because we weren't in the "in" group; even more so once we dropped out of the troof.

    Oh, the look on her face the last time my sis and I saw her coming out of our local grocery store, hand-in-hand with her lover.....we just happened to be visiting our hometown the same weekend and just happened to be together when we saw her. I thought she'd have a heart attack right there at the storefront.

    I always find it interesting when I see JWs that don't know I was once one. Most of them play the boy scout right to the end. But some are a different person when they think they are safe from JW or ex-JW eyes.

    Very interesting indeed--I totally agree. The last time I worked with a JW, that JW was right on the Dub straight 'n narrow. She didn't know that I used to be one. Made it a point to inform us new folks that she didn't work on certain nights because she was a Dub. She was die-hard and true; would never say "and you do the same" when a customer wished her a Merry Christmas. It was always a stammered, fake "a-and you have a-a nice day!"

    just enjoy yourself. remembering that she is only human, sucked into the jw rules like you were. whatever you do, don't go to a hall on vacation. i was always amazed at the dub ability to visit a local hall wherever they were vacationing. :)
