Is he part of a forum like this where he can talk to people that are in similar situations or is he just doing this by himself and of course with you? I would think finding someone to talk to that is in the same boat would help.
Good Luck...
today he kept bumping in to (or rather dodging and weaving from) fellow witnesses.
he's talking about returning but can't figure out a way to do it without enduring a fair amount of humiliation.
i did not panic.

it will obviously make a difference to how jw's obtain their literatrash, they will have to download and print it all themselves before long.. it will make a small difference to the dtod work, they will now refer even genuine questions and interest etc to the site, not taking the opportunity to "witness" on the initial call at all.
this has been happening already to a degree.. the difference i am mainly interested in is the capture of new suckers in to the borg.. we will be able to see when we get 2014's figures, sometime next year, what the rate of increase was over the last ten years.. phizzy the prophet predicts that the rate of increase over the next ten years will not be significantly up.
probably down, but certainly, i feel, not so different from the last ten.. should i be around in ten years to do so, i will wish to ask jw's:.
I go to their site to find the latest lies/changes. I hate that they are counting me in a positive way.

So if I show this to my wife she should leave the org because it's what I want right? Wishful thinking. Did anyone else laugh when the word homosexual popped up?
it's been quite a while since i lasted posted anything on jwn.
i was in hiding previously, but only because i wanted to avoid the shun gun until i had the opportunity to tell my former congregation what i think about the org./gb.
i last attended a meeting over 2.5 years ago but it wasn't until june--when i earned my bachelor's degree--that i finally had the time to collect my thoughts and get them down on paper...i decided to write my letter in a style i felt would be most appealing to my target audience--jw's still under gb mind control --in the hope that at least a few would read it and actually "think".
Nice! Can you write one of these to my wife? Just Kidding. I am actually starting to think she believes what I am telling her but she just doesn't care.
the influx of new posters made me wonder if the push to view jw.org is helping curious ones find this support site?.
please post whether you found jwn during an internet search or if someone told you about it.. i myself was directed here by a df'd family member once i shared my doubts with that person..
Used internet searches looking for TTATT. Although at the time I didn't know to refer to it as TTATT.
I may have to put that as my FB wallpaper. However I will add all the dates that they got something wrong.
q: are you willing to admit the gb and the wts is wrong if the facts go against them?.

some souls here may feel i was a little harsh.
if so, i am deeply sorry.
i was abused by a handful right from the start, presumably on the basis of the avatar picture (and 2001 vintage).. when visiting dubland, i often find that others start fights with me - for whatever reason, and i provide quite a supply of them - and when it doesn't quite go the way they expected, they cry persecution.
A couple of them seem to be missing. Not sure. My comment makes less sense now though.
There was an additional page earlier too. Maybe some of the posts that were deemed arguing were removed. Maybe we can get back to sharing info and support.

I don't really care about his tone. I liked the information and like Eden would have liked to see more. Just my two cents anyway. Carry on.
i'm at starbucks .
just outside in the courtyard.. i'm trembling.
my hands are shaking.. wow!.
Thanks for sharing this story. Seeing your conversation played out may help me with talks with my wife. Things aren't really going that great with those talks. I just hope that she is just being stubborn like the guy was when you first approached him but in reality she is thinking......
