i have been on this board for 7 or 8 years, i have learned a great deal from all of you, but it is time for me to move on and put my life in a different direction.

so i say so long, who knows maybe sometime in the future i will pop in and say hi.

thanks to all of you who have done a great deal for me, i have learned a lot about cult religions and a lot about myself.

Old Flame, I will miss you. I have read your posts for a long while, and you faded away, and tonight, I saw you were back. Then you will be gone again. Please pop back in often, I will watch for you. H/L

I am Agnostic. What happened??

by horrible life in

i have had a continuing saga of a 25 year friendship, gone terribly wrong.

bitterness is very high, on both of our parts.

every-time i think things have calmed down, and we are dead to each other, something else is said on her part.

LOL LOL LOL My sides hurt now!!! Billy ex, I was really reading your post, trying to picture, and feel the calmness. Thank you!!!!! You don't know how much I needed that! I do feel better.

I am so glad Satanus, parakeet, and you Billy, have a sense of humor. I guess laughter is the best medicine.

Welcome KCmike.

Hope this forum is of a great benefit to you, in trying to keep your step-son a healthy, happy, and well balanced young man. That will not happen, if he gets much deeper into the JW's.

Again welcome, and go sooners.

It's not that anger is bad--it's highly justified in certain cases--it's just that it has an adverse effect on rational behavior, and can take a bad situation and make it infinitely worse.

Slappy, I have alot of experience in the above!!! I will go on Amazon tonight, and find some meditation books.

Slappy, who are you?? Have you ever been a JW? There is something about your post to me, that had an expensive taste to it. A wiseness, that only a handful of the old-posters here have. I then glanced at your other posts. I found you very wise indeed, and educated.

I don't know if others have noticed you or not. You are very new, and I feel, like you could help or expand the minds of many on this board. No, not just with their personal problems, (like mine, LOL) but in understanding life, ex-JW-ism, give another side of biblical scriptures, etc..... Don't know if anybody has welcomed you yet, but I will start a new Topic, and please tell us about yourself.

I peeked in, before I left, and I understand the man thing. But, last month, their daughter told her friends, that my daughter was looking up on the internet how to make a bomb. That she is a slut.

The mother, has been going around town, saying that I am bi-polar.

The list goes on. I asked a neighbor to help with a resolve to this, and to help us, not be friends, but to make peace, through scripture, haha, and prayer, he asked her, and her husband called me up, and said nobody wants to talk to you, or your daughter.

on, and on, i could go, but I have to go to work. My husband will sit back, and watch as my daughters and my reputation, go down the tubes. I truly believe, that if he would have just called after the first couple of incidents, and told her husband,

"hey, lets get our wives to stop talking, and bad mouthing each other, and our girls to leave each other alone' this would have all come to an end. The thing is, I have told my daughter, since day ONE, not to talk about them, to anyone. That was the agreement between the 4 parties, when the girls started fighting. Then the mother gets pissed at me, for something, and it has escalated to this. I have still informed myself, and my daughter, to be the better people in this, and not talk about it to outsiders.

Instead, it festers, and her husband gets in on it. and my husband is oblivious to anything. I can tell him a story, about what happened, and the next hour, he has it twisted, into some other story, and I think he is a complete idiot!!!!

Then he will say, in a strong voice, "I will take care of it"". When I get home, he will have forgot, or he didn't have time. He remains a bump on a log.

No I don't follow him as the head of the house, because he has always been passive, Maybe I need to take lessons, but I can't see how he can let other people hurt his daughter. She has been hurt emotionally and mentally through all of this, and could have been hurt physically the other night racing home.

Later, I have 50 miles to work.

Satanus, and Cog,

You have given me alot to chew on, in just these 2 small posts. I printed them off, and will take them to work, to dissect more. Is there a book to teach me more? or online course?

This seems like a road out of my mind, that I have been looking for, for a long time. I will check in this evening. Have a good day.

Satanus, I do have a habit of being obsessive about things. Hard to get me off track sometimes. What type of meditation are you talking about, and if I am in a rage, how would I be able to stop and think, "I need to meditate." .
