Interesting Response From JW ex-Wife

Corvin

My JW ex-wife called to talk to one of the kids. They were not home, and she sounded agitated as usual. She had a really nasty tone, very angry with a tinge of self-righteousness. I once overheard a conversation she had with one of my daughters when she thought I was not listening and she sounded to offensive and angry. Constantly asking loaded questions and trying to trip our daughter up. What a bitch, I thought.

I asked her why she sounded so mad all the time. Before she could answer, I followed up with, "hey, aren't you one of Jehovah's Witnesses?"

She was speechless. When she did start to speak again her tone had noticeably changed. She sounded a bit nicer, but with much effort. She had put on her kingdom hall voice all of the sudden.

I think I will ask her that same question each and every time she speaks to me or the kids in that tone. While it might get her to think a whole lot, it will break her pattern.

Corvin, I am sorry for the kids. Been there done that, still doing it, even after the t-shirt.

Best advice from me.....

She is a cold hearted bitch, you are getting whatever you want..she ain't.

That is why she is so bitchy,,,say'eth the lord.......amen.

p.s. the kids are smart.

yes corvin; it's great once you have a jw's number and can use their own teaching against them . sounds like she's having a problem showing the fruits of the sprit when i talk to mhy dad the jw before he answers me i like to throw in , be careful with your words jehoover hates a false witness etc. in many cases he wiil not even answer my question now. i tell him good thing you kept your mouth shut. but jehoover knows that deceptive lie you are thinking... it's so easy to burn a jw once you know their m.o. turning the tables on them is so satifying. john

Thinking back, there were a couple of people who did that kind of thing when i was a jw. I think it happened in business a time or two when i was giving a price estimate. The smart bastard.

Oh well, i'm glad that i'm free to be me, now. I can be an 'asshole' if i want, if the other person is using unfair tactics/manipulation. Not saying that you are doing this, corvin. If she can't be a jw, like jw's are supposed to be, then she should quit being a jw. But, most just get back on the theocratic tread mill and keep on running their guts out. If that how they want it, so be it, so let it be written, so let it be spoken.

Rude behaviour is almost never appropriate especially to or around children by a parent or grandparent. It sends the wrong messages. It teaches inappropriate behaviour.

Your response was excellent, reminding her of her "place" and "responsibility" as a JW. You might suggest your children confront their mother with something similar such as "why are you speaking to me in this manner, I don't deserve your anger".

Wow, I didn't think we had the same ex-wife, but I guess we must!
