  see, this explains everything - why men "never listen" to women :)

  men do have trouble hearing women: research

  men who are accused of never listening by women now have an excuse - women's voices are more difficult for men to listen to than other men's.

  I had this discussion the other week with my man regarding why he doesn't pay attention to me when I talk. He gave me a stupid grin and said it was because I talk so much he already knows what I'm going to say. So then I punched him in the arm. That made him laugh at me because he's 6'2 and 260 lbs and I'm only little. This made me madder so I sulked until he said he was sorry and bought me coffee.

  This is not a conversation I want to have with him again because I can't win it.

  i had an idea.......what if once a year or so all apostates and anit-jw's showed up at the kingdom hall for services?

  even if they didnt even speak, just the mere presence of a few apostates in the crowd.

  but make it known to all congs that this is the day.

  I have an idea on which day ya'll should come. The day Armageddon starts.

  Sounds great Defd! Now since they can't be bothered to make service calls on me or invite me to the memorial how will I know what day armageddon starts? Oh! never mind, I believe you told us in another post of yours that we will know it's armaggedon by the big screaming ball of fire coming towards us. Yes I will be sure to head for the KH first thing upon spotting it.

  I too enjoy reading Defd posts, it's always amusing to hear his comments. Although I always say his name in my head as 'disfellowshipped', I wonder if he thought his screen all the way through.

  Bad habits

  by Satanus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this thread isn't about spitting on the sidewalk or picking your nose in public.

  i am talking about bad thinking habits.

  ways of thinking that we learned in order to survive, bad ways of thinking that we learned because of wrong information/wrong beliefs that we had.

  I also procrastinate a lot. And I have severe avoidance issues regarding tasks that I am uncomfortable with. I agree with Tal's comments, but the main reason I do this is because I feel that I'm never going to be good enough. Why go to that party because no one will want to talk to me. Why apply for that job when I'm not what they want. Why go to school when I'm not smart enough. It's all about the fear of rejection for me. It's safer to not put yourself out there then to do it and get hurt.

  I'm getting much better about all of it, which only started to happen when I was able to admit to myself why I was doing it.

  Make a tea withhot water, honey, crushed ginger and crushed garlic cloves. Let it steep with a cover on it for 3-5 minutes. Sip it slowly making sure to breath in the steam. The garlic and ginger need to be fresh not powdered.

  People won't want to be talking to you but it works great. Good luck!
