  Maybe he wants to talk to you because he thinks females are easier to guilt trip?

  in the last topic i started, i asked "what makes a chick crazy": http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/20/116188/1.ashx.

  one of the posters suggested that women talk about what drives them crazy.

  so ladies, what are the annoying habits of the people closest to you that drives you loco?.

  Those are nice, what are you talking about?!
  
  I knit and just started to crochet and sew (not to good about sewing) I love the stuff with yarn, I find it so relaxing and really helps my stress levels stay down.

  "My Apostate Brother"

  by scout575 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "i was put up against a wall the last years of my life, always depressed, hopeless and miserable.

  even though i was married and had a family i was alone, no one to confide in, no one to turn to, always in fear that my doubt would be discovered and i would become an outcast ( more so ).

  i was lucky enough to have my apostate brother refer me to this site.

  Foreverjw ~ Have you experienced true, unconditional love from the congregation? If so then you are the exception and not the norm from a lot of others experiences.
