Yeah...dont bother with needy people "there will always be the poor among you". Thank you for standing up to them You showed the strength of character and love that is sadly TOTALLY LACKING in that cult.

The homeless sister and the $60,000 RV
by HappyGuy ini was in a congregation once which had a large number of desperately poor people in it.
there was an elderly sister, she lived near me, a sweet woman, who became homeless because her ramshackled old house caught fire.
around that same time one of the overseers (imagine that using a slavery term), i forget if it was district or circuit overseer, came to town wanting a new rv/truck combo.

I bet this guy figured if he killed a bunch of soldiers then perhaps LESS muslims would be killed when they were sent overseas. He himself was going to have a problem shooting his kinsmen...so decided to act for god and kill the infidels himself! WACK JOB

Sir...yeah really. I went back over everything I ever said looking for somewhere where I might have indicated otherwise but I was very very specific that I didnt want him to CALL me every dayl. That this is PLATONIC that we are only FRIENDS. I think he thinks that if he just had the opportunity he could convince me "he is the one" somehow. Seriously...it went from 0 to 60 in like one day. :*(

I agree Xer I shouldnt have asked the second time....but during that eight months he was nothing but nice and not overboard and caring...and I really thought I must have just overreacted to the sudden attention. Like the way I reacted when going to churches after leaving the Kingdom Hall...like they were only trying to TRAP me you know?

Ok..Ive been separated for 8 months now. Want to file for divorce and just get it over with. Guy at work (he is day shift I am night shift) I have known about a year and a half has been wanting to go out. We tried having dinner last May...or rather he ate and I sat there because it was after he got off work one night..and after that he just sort of took off with it. Calling daily, watching for me to come to work, insisting on talking to me while at my job calling attention to "us" even though I made it clear there was no "us" and I didnt want to discuss what we did or didnt do at work. Then i would go to work and he would hang around there...waiting for me. One night I clocked in, went to the office computer to check my vacation schedule and when I came out he was STILL there...a full half hour after he should have been gone. I was irritated by that. He didnt BELIEVE I needed to use the computer! Wanted to know why I was back there in the office. Asked THREE times. So I cut it off...totally.
So a week ago or so I decided maybe back in May I wasnt ready to go out yet and do anything and maybe overreacted so asked him if maybe he would like to go AS FRIENDS ONLY to a craft show or a bar to watch a football game with friends. And once again...the obsession began. He started waiting again for me after work....every damn day. Asking my co workers what my schedule was. Hanging around the time clock so I couldnt get to my job without dealing with him first. Then calling me.....and calling and calling...14 times in less than two days!! I was freaked. Couldnt believe it. He told he he was just so attracted to me. Said things like where were you Monday night I WAITED for you! So... I called him and he didnt pick up so I left a message to STOP CALLING ME that we werent BF and GF that he didnt need to check on me daily that he isnt going to RESCUE me that he should STOP waiting for me because he was creeping me out!! And damned if he didnt call again 2 minutes later. Damned if he isnt STILL waiting for me even after every single person from the day crew is long gone...waiting. I know this because I WATCH him to make sure he is gone before I go in. He stands there looking at the front of the store. Watching for me. Walking around his car pretending to check it. Watching more....sitting there sitting there sitting there... freaks me out. Makes my heart race that he will notice me watching him. God...
Did I over react??? I told my supervisor what was going on without mentioning his name. Just so someone knows. I dont think this guy means me any physical harm...but where does it cross the line? Did I bring this on myself by asking him to go do something with me? Ugh..
Youd think it was deer mating season and I was wearing deer urine or something for cologne. :(

Let me ask you guys something.....
by lavendar in.....my son and his wife are both jws and have been for years.
the wife has pioneered for years, but i don't think she is now b/c she currently starting working.
they have been talking about taking a vacation (something that they've never done).

Well both of those things expose them, if you will, to other human beings and thats a good thing. They will see there are wonderful kind loving people out there who are NOT JWs and sometimes it takes that to start chipping away at this cult. The less they are INSIDE with the mind melding the less the grip will be on them. Id say it was a very positive thing :)
And that is me hoping for us all.
