Need Help any Advice?

by whyamihere in

hi, i am somewhat new here although my feelings about the jw's haven't been.. anyway, i am doing the fade thing right now along with my husband.

everything was going fine i have not gone to a meeting in 5 months now(i think) and prior to that i was barely going i guess you could say every now and then.

however, going every now and, then i was going back and forth with my feelings.

Thank you everyone! I needed that. I know I should not worry about what people think or say but my sister is in your face crazy and will turn everyone against me. Funny thing though she has always been like that. I never knew why or what I have done to make her act like that towards me. Oh Well!

James Thomas: In the manner you speak is beautiful. So kind warm and loving people like you make the world a better place. Just how you speak I know you must be a wonderful caring person and I am lucky enough to have a brief meeting with you.

I will take my time and yes what I do in my life is my personal business. I never thought of telling her that but I will try it out the next time. Thank you all so much and I need to get those books and read them. I have been reading this book called Them and Us(I think that is what its called). My mother-in-law gave it to me to read. Nothing to do with JW's but cults. However you can see alot of it is based on how the JW"s teach and act. I will get the Ray books. I think it will help me understand I am ok and a good person.

I guess that is my main thing I second guess myself. I hope I do what is right but I guess that's what we all do in life I will try and make the best of it. My main thing is my kids. I will not let anyone hurt them and by me saying that I won't take in to the Kingdom hall. I love my kids why would I do that?

Hi, I am somewhat new here although my feelings about the JW's haven't been.

Anyway, I am doing the fade thing right now along with my husband. Everything was going fine I have not gone to a meeting in 5 months now(I think) and prior to that I was barely going I guess you could say every now and then. However, going every now and, then I was going back and forth with my feelings. I would say to myself its the truth and then go right back to if its the truth then why does all of these horrible things happen.

It was 6 months ago I was having questions were I did not agree with shunning among many other things. And myself righteous sister who is trying to save me told me and I still can't believe I fell for it she said its Jehovah sheding light on us. And thats why things change because we don't know everything all at once and then new information is given to us little by little. At that time my parents were spliting up things were changing so fast and I am still depressed about alot of things. I think I give in way too much. I am not strong enough sometimes to think for myself. I was never taught to think for myself I just went along with everything. I think some of you know what I mean.

Anyway last night my sister called me for no reason as she always does because she thinks I like her. And we were talking about our kids nothing serious and then all of a sudden she says so "Are you guys going to go to meetings?" and I didn't know what to say I mean she intimidates me like you have no idea. And I played it off and said I don't know. I tried to changed the subject and she then said "Well?" And, went on about how she is scared for me and, that she wants my kids to know Jehovah and, the meetings. I told her my kids will know about Jehovah and, I will teach them that. She then said "Well I don't want you to get mad at me if I ever ask if Lily (my daughter) would ever like to go with her to a meeting." I said I would get mad. However, when I told my husband this I said to him that I will never ever let my kids go in to that place with out I being there to protect them. And to that answer I am not going to go anymore.

I need help in what to say I am not that educated with the whole witness thing(however I am intelligent) I just went along with everything I didn't pay attention to everything maybe thats why I stayed in it so long. I guess I am just looking for advice on what to say. I get all chocked up and I just say "I don't know." I don't want them to think I am stupid and Satan has gotten me in his trap. If thats true Satan is a nice loving person because since I have not gone I feel better and things are going alot better with my marriage and my relationship with my in-laws whom have left a few years ago.

I just need help on what to say and information on why the Jehovah's Witnesses are wrong and I am right on my thinking.

Thank you to all who help me and support me!

i was with my kids at the laundry mat washing my huge duvet comforter and right in the middle of one of the table i saw 2 awake magazines.

i didn't even think or ponder on the moment i just went mad and ripped them up right infront of everyone.

i didn't care i thought to myself i saved someone that day.

whyamihere

Thats so funny Nancy.....I put the awakes that I ripped right on top of the garbage so everyone knew what it was that made me mad. I thought to myself that damn ass who put that there probably counted a whole hour of service for doing that.

I remember that I used to count and hour of service when I hung out with my "Worldly" friends. I thought hey why not. Everyone is doing it...... peer pressure!

Did any of you count for odd hours in service like driving around and pretending to do the field work? Nither did I! kidding.

I remember going out going to 3 houses and it took 5 hours because everyones damn call back was out in no-wheresville and yet laughing goofing off doing really nothing taking a hour break and yet how much work is really done? Well I hope it stays that way maybe they won't come to my door and go to Mc Donalds look at the dollar menu and argue about the prices!

Brooke in WI

p.s. Love you Nancy and miss you!

Its odd before I would hand them out thinking I was going to save someone and, now I rip them up thinking the samething.

Has anyone ever done this or thought about it?

P.S. Everyone in the world thinks JW's are crazy for doing odd things....now they will think the EX-JW's are more mad!

Baby Dies in Texas After Mother Reports Cutting off Arms

by Mecurious? in

did anyone else hear about this?

here is the link:.

That Story was so awful words can't express my feelings for that baby!

My son who is about the same age as the baby. I look at him every day I mean everyday and thank god for him he is my life so is my daughter. I see the little person he is and I can't imagine hurting him at all. When he falls or gets hurt my heart hurts knowing he is in pain and I can't do anything at that moment. I can't even think about the subject because I think of my son.

I just don't understand that at all....there is no punishment that would make it better. No matter what happens a baby a beautiful baby is gone for no reason.

I also want to point to the parents of the JW cult who child was molested and never did anything they are just as bad. I told my husband anyone who touches my kid in anyway I will take the law in my own hands and hurt that person until you could not reconized the body!

Brooke...ps I am really a nice person just don't touch my kid!

How did you come up with your name-JW forum(funnies please)

by Tim Horton in

i still haven't got mine.

but i think the hubby had a good sense of humor when he thought of tim horton.

i mean how fitting for an ex jw.

Well look at my name...it should say it all!

I was hear at first and I thought too myself...... should I be here?...... is this right? .....and why am I here?

and I wanted to become a memeber(because I was having issues and I wanted to know the real truth) so it asked for a Nickname! So I thought that was perfect at that point. I should now have it as IknowwhyIamhere or IcameIsawIkickedtheeldersass...kidding!

I am glad to be here though

Here is a funny one..... My husband and I were 1st married...and I knew how to cook but not like one pot things!

Anyway he said how about I make Chili I was like ok thats easy. So I got everything and started to make it! Well some people make it with Noodles and some don't my husband said he wanted some noodles so I was like thats fine. Well I thought too myself this is easy as the Chili was done and I had to make the noodles and I would be done. Well I thought hey why don't I just throw the uncooked noodles in the the chili and not waste and dirty another pot. So I did! Anyone hear of Chili Caserol? Well thats what happened it sucked all the Chili sauce out. So then I was like I can't give him this. So I ran back to the store and got more sauce and extra stuff made that poured half of it into one pot and then had 2 huge pots of normal Chili. Well I said I will be nice and give some to my Mom and my Sister and my Brothers not knowing they all made Chili at the same time. We ate so much Chili it took a year before I ever made it again!
