Welcome Tika...
I don't have any JWs in my life but, you have just described my 2 adult step-daughters to a T...!! It can be really frustrating dealing with people who think the whole world revolves around them and only them.
I wish you the best in dealing with it...keep searching... Knowledge is power.

from coming on here from time to time i notice there is many disfellowshipped ones and alot of those who didnt like their freedoms taken away from them.
ignoring what you have researched and know now how many of you, honestly if there was no disfellowshipping and say you were allowed to have more freedoms such as playing sports, how many of you would still be witnesses?
once again ignore ever coming on here for insight and so forth.
So what are you saying, that most here who say they are out because they found out the truth about the "truth" are lying and justifying a selfish need to do their own thing and have more freedom?
That's the same feeling I got from your reply. I didn't leave to Party and do my own thing..
I left because, for one of several reasons, I don't agree with the way they keep adding to the Bible and then saying it came directly from God. I feel that is BS... how do we know where their ideas come from for sure, esp. when they have to take a vote on what to add.

just thought i'd carry the funeral thread a little further.
what do you want them to carve on your tombstone?
i'm inclined toward the smartass epitaph, something like "what are you looking at?
"Stress Free and Loving It"

No, It bothers me when Men go "Beyond What is Written" in any form ...and then claim it is "God's" thoughts.

i can not describe the sadness of hearing him tell me, i asked him to think about what a great part time job he has, with free schooling.
he says they will probably take him back.
his abilities are suitable for closing down brooklyn, so at least he will be there (i love nyc).
Oompa,
Just wanted to let you know, that just like everyone else here, I also understand how you feel about this.
All we can do is hope for the best...

i come here and read some of the posts.
i laugh so hard sometimes, well most times i cry cause i'm laughing so hard.
not in a mocking way.
It just makes me feel better to be able to laugh and know that there are so many people out there just like me
Odie, it's great that you feel that way......... I am so happy for you...
It's a wonderful feeling to know that you are not alone.
Sincerely,
Cas
for me it would be, my favorite martian, and wild wild west..
Mine were...

With "The Dick Van Dyke Show", being my all time favorite..

i know, a far cry from the sexiest actor/actress thread, but hell; let's be a kid for a weekend for a bit!
it brings back fun, good memories !
so, when you were a kid, did you lean toward disney or warner brothers ?
I couldn't miss....
Tom and Jerry
Rocky and Bullwinkle
and of course... "The Flintstones"

so all this talk at the moment about funerals and stuff got me thinking... what kind of an exit party would i like?.
i reckon i would not want anything too formal, but i would want loads of people saying how great i was - i people to notice that i am no longer around, and be sad about it!
i want people to share good memories.
Hubby and I were discussing this a few weeks ago... I lean towards cremation, he wants no part of it. So far we still haven't come to a final decision.
