we have so many wise and well read people here on jwd so i thought that i would just toss this out and see if i could get some new enlightenment on this.
are there any other references that i have not seen in the scriptures ( and i have looked pretty hard for this) that would allow divorce that are considered 'acceptable' ?
am i just spinning my wheels in that foolishness still?
Thanks guys, I do not know why I feel that is still important and NOT for the elders to be involved I think that it is just something that is still stuck in the shadows of my being.
Moanzy and Balsam ... I want some of what makes you strong!!!! In fact, make mine a double You are right though. I do not give a flying damn about the 'elders' or the religion I just sometimes would like to know that I am going through life with as little damage as possible to the people around me. I guess that I have to work through this damn guilt.
I divorced my first husband many, many years ago and the elders told me not to but I had more guts then. I also had babies that were getting hurt by him . That makes such a difference.
I appreciate all that answered me. Going through some really difficult decision making times

it's been a long time since i last posted, but something recently happened that is making making me heartsick... i just learned that one of my children is engaged to be married.
all of my children are grown up and when they reach around 18 years old, decided to become jws.
they were quite young when i left the organization, shortly after which my wife and i separated.
I am so sorry. Yes, there are many of us that suffer with this situation. Just today I decided that I had to hear my youngest sons voice. So, I called his cell. I thought that even if he was angry at me for calling him it would still be his voice but he has caller ID and no matter how long I let it ring he would not answer it. I did not leave a message. He would have deleted it anyway and I never would have gotten a return call.
I think that this is amoral, unimaginably cruel and I wished that there was someway that all effected by this BS could come together for class action suits against those imbecilic, geriatric cretans that spend their days tottering around the drafty tower.
Isn't what they are doing illegal?? In some form, in some countries? It is alienation of affection. Even the third party in a divorce can be held accountable.
You will find consolation here by people who walk in your footsteps.
Take care and welcome aboard.

this woman has just got to get back on track!
hehehee.
i feel much better now...hehehe.... :) i wish i were already a witness though.................... it breaks my heart that i've messed up like i have and have gotten off track!
Merfi, that is interesting what you said about the stamp on her site from the people who visit. Did I get that right? Is she just a very sad, confused girl or a ploy to help to identify more of us happy little apostates.
To be honest, I can not be certain why she is writing to our site if she is fully convinced in the belief system of the dubs.
Something feels a bit off with this one and if I am wrong please accept my apologies.

i have tried so many times to use an avatar that i have selected and saved on my desktop... got it from a tiny pic in a magazine.
i changed it so that i was saving it in the proper format and still nothing.
i am very, very frustrated.
Good Morning!
All that struggling wore me out and I went to bed early. My avatar is a porcupine! And a mighty cute one if I do say so myself.
Thank you for the welcome and I look forward to getting to know you better,
