i am a passive aggressive.
can't help it - i learned it from my mommy.
so if i am angry and feel like throwing stuff or hitting something/someone i do sneaky stuff instead.
I used to behave that way. It's a hard habit to break and too painful to hold onto. I got the feeling that people were always walking all over me.
I went from being passive/aggressive to being overly agressive; now I practice being assertive/compassionate . It works wonders .

i did it many times.
first of all, let me say that just about every meeting i attended was a sacrifice for me.
i was a follower, not more.
I remember one particular Sunday meeting. I really didn't want to go. Since it was a nice New England fall day, my husband didn't comment when I wore my long rain coat. However, we arrived a the hall (late as usual) and sat down. A few minutes in, my husband leaned over and said why don't you take your coat off. I said, "I can't I'm naked". Needless to say, we didn't stay for very long.Good times, good times....
That's the BEST alreadygone! Welcome to the forum!!!!! sweet tee

I didn't have to actually leave - I had kids. The last two years I spent most of the time in the ladies room or mother's room . My Tressa boo was such a fussy little baby .
Don't think it went unnoticed. There were a few talks about sisters spending too much time in the mother's/restroom. I just ignored them. By then I had become so rebellious anything they said I blatently and gleefully did the opposite . It was like being a teenager all over again!

#1 do you love jehovah?......she answered, "of course i love jehovah".
#2 do you feel the same about the faithful & discreet slave?....she answered, "why wouldn't i ?
they taught me everything i know".-----to give you some background, the elders paid a shepherding call on this ill former regular pioneer that they deleted for going to an "unequaled yoking" of a wedding of my inactive daughter and her "worldly" husband.
Hey Min! Your mom is da bomb! She's ole school though, you know she can see through their BS. How can the botchtower society say they do NOT break up families, when its apparant that's what these elders are trying to do in every way? First, they deleted her as a pio. for going to 'her grandaughters' wedding, then they imply that minimus is not a good son .... and to put the kaibash on the bulls*it "REMEMBER, WE ARE YOUR FAMILY" (Luke, I am your faaaaaaaaaaaaathe, search your heart boy, you knoooooooooooowwww this to be true - Darth Vadar, Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back (?)
Hey Kool Aid - Welcome to the forum maaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnn! Glad to have you !
last night my ex boyfriend finally admitted to me that he cheated on me whilst we were going out.
we split up about 7 years ago.
what is irking me most is that i've asked him before if he had and he totally denied it.
I hear you anewme - and more than likely that is true, it is more common for a woman to forgive which doesn't rule out a man forgiving a woman completely.
Have you ever cheated on a man and asked his forgiveness? M'
I'll answer that one, M: Yes, I have, and he has . I NEVER thought I would cheat on the man that I love. But like my grandmother used to say "don't say what you won't do, say what you haven't done!" (sweet tee of the 'shame on me' & 'd*mn I hate true confessions' class)
developments like this are highly significant!
while nobody is close to creating a treatment to end aging now, that doesn't mean.
they won't have one in 20 years or so.
Hey, Gill. I understand your point of view. I'm not into religion and I don't force my spiritual views on others (not since leaving the tower anyway).
My thought is that if something can be done to preserve a life already in progress then it's a good thing. You never know when it could be you, me or one of our loved ones in need of some new lifesaving medical technology. That being said, although I empathize with invertile women/men, I still really don't like the fact that people create more embryos than they intend to use, leaving a potential life hanging in the balance. It's an ethical dilemma for sure.

but when a woman has sex with another man the man is through with her ---even if he does not have the nerve to tell this to her face. Yes, he sees the unfairness of it all, but he cant help his feelings. He will never love that woman again. In fact he calls her a "bitch" in his heart. Unfair, but true.
This may or may not be true. You shouldn't make blanket assumptions about the opposite sex. People are individuals after all and some have more compassion than others, and larger hearts to forgive (not that it matters with this guy anyhow).

are we not killing other people, ie the unborn embryos to make extra pieces of ourselves when getting stem cells. Not good!
Stem cells can also be retrieved from the umbilical cord. I was shocked to find out that the hospital sold my placenta after I gave birth to my children . Part of it ended up in my hair conditioner (henna/placenta pack ).
sweet tee
P.S. If unused embryos, say from in-vitro fertilization are used for stem cell research rather than being discarded, what's the problem?
god!!!!
it just frys me that they brainwash these fools and they believe.
i'm out but my wife still straggles behind.
ROFLMAO finallyfree! It kills me how judgemental some assholes elders can be! They were just jealous because they knew you'd end up making more money than they did!
And the way you pitched the bookstudy group out of your house - PRICELESS
