    I?m feeling used

    Jumper,

    I've know a few bethelites who believe they are a notch above everybody else. And it is in them to use others. Why I my not surprised that you are feeling used.

    Don't allow them to walk over you.

    Orangefatcat, your story hit home so much with me. I found out about my mothers breast cancer by chance. Something drew me to my parents home one afternoon. I hadn't been there in years. My mother hadn't had anything to do with me in 13 years. When I pulled up in her driveway, my j.w. sister came up to me in the driveway and said, *Oh, I guess you've heard*....I said, *No, heard what*....she said, *Mother's cancer has come back*. I was sick to my stomach. Not one person had called to tell me. Feeling my mother would have nothing to do with me, I got myself reinstated *worse thing I could ever do*. Long story short, I disassociated myself right before she died. I couldn't take being a witness and all the back biting and bullcrap that goes with it. Never could. I guess what I'm trying to say to you is this, I know how it feels to be turned away from your mother. Don't compromise. Sometimes we have to give ourselves what we don't or didn't get from others. Keep me posted on how things go, K?

    Big hug, Tink
