The JWs called on us yesterday...

  Before I start: For the JW who I think will most definately read this thread I want to say this. If you come knocking on my door after this and ask me personal questions I will have you in court for harrassment faster than you can say "Jehovah". Don't risk it. You ruined my first wedding, you are NOT going to ruin this one.

  Everyone, here is what happened:

  Well, I was at my JW mum's house. There was a knock on the door and there were a JW couple I used to know when I attended. Everything was polite, they had their kids with them and it was starting to rain, so I invited them in.

  I didn't realise that they'd signal to the two JWs on the next door to come in aswell, who were an elder and his wife

  At this point, Dansk came to mind. He is the one on this forum who set an example (IMO) at being himself and not allowing the JWs to influence what you do. With Dansk in mind, I continued drinking my Murphy's Irish Stout and sat myself boldly in the centre of the room. The elder and wife were on one side, the younger couple + kids on the other.

  They mentioned my wedding on 4th June this year, but didn't mention "the Truth". Then the elder's wife asked:

  "So, when you get married, are you going to live in XXXX's house, or your house?"

  to which I replied
  "My house. XXXX sold his house last year so he's living with me now" (being honest, I only realised as I said it that this was a loaded question and I'd just told her I was fornicating - doh!)

  She simply stared at me and said "oh". A deathly silence - then my JW mum intervened with something completely unrelated to do with her holiday or something.

  As they left I told the elder's son that I didn't believe any more in the JWs and I've never been happier. He tried some "Think about the future" crap, but basically I made it clear that I'm happier than ever and not interested. He's the guy who I think will read this thread. He made it clear to me that he's an avid internet watcher and has broadband. I reckon he knows I post here.

  Here's the bit that is worrying me: as they were leaving the Elder said to me "You live on XXXXX road don't you?"

  When they'd gone I asked mum how he knew where I lived and she said, "Oh, he asked me just before they went out so I told him..."

  Sirona, they may be planning on staking out your house to see you coming out in the morning, having stayed overnight unchaperoned with a member of the opposite sex. That is grounds fro DF'ing. Or it may be the prelude to a JC. I hope not.

  Too bad you are in England: there are now Stalking Laws in the US that would "kick in" at this point. These changes are recent, ranging from 1-5 years ago. But you do have to have some additional indiscretions on their part. This sometimes happens and makes for circumstances that are "actionable".

  More of these social parasites should be brought to justice.

  I think you should have put a hex on him.....besides your in big trouble just for living on an X rated street.

  Did you tell him that if he shows up at your house you'll be forced to use your Shotgun!

  Thanks everyone.

  Shotgun - if I were to even attempt a debate I think I'd have to print out your transcripts and read them out word for word!

  X Rated street...LOL

  Maybe old Dave will read this and avoid me, like the good boy he is.

  Let 'em DF me or whatever, I'm sick of their "oh we missed you" crap when none of them have cared about me for the 5 years I've been out!

  Sirona, ya did good! I'm proud of you! But, I also feel bad that they brought even a bit of unhappiness to your life at this point............

  Shotgun, you are too much! And don't tell me you'll try to be less..........I love your sense of humor, dude! P.S. are we still running neck and neck on who's month is shittier?

  They are just trying to keep the congregation clean and free of immoralilty, Sirona.

  But seriously, that whole encounter sounds creepy. Be strong and don't let those fig puckers get you down.
