Yeah, I am done fighting with her. Its pointless to have the conversations because we are both left pissed off. I am thinking about joining the Air Force, think they will get the hint then?

Sending all the JWs all alone on a big island.
by greendawn ini sometimes wonder wouldn't it be a good idea to gather all jws in the world on a large island somewhere isolated in the midst of the earth's oceans and confine them there so that their desire to be separate from the world will be fulfilled?
the world will also be spared being pestered by the fake gospel they preach and no more ppl will be victimised by this cult.
finally, the dubs there all alone will be able to build up their own society without interference from outside and we would then see how suited they really are for a new righteous world.

LMAP - Why Aussie? I love the kangaroos there, why not send them to Antarctica (however you spell it) and let them freeze their butts off

Quick survey for apostates - please everyone just yes or no answer
by slimboyfat indo the other witnesses with whom you associate/once associated in general know that you are an apostate or have apostate inclinations?
the reason for the phrase "in general" is that it may be the case that one or two close friends know how you feel, but others in general do not.
in my own case, one other witness knows, but no one else, so i would answer the survey question with a "no".

I honestly don't know. I think if you give me a good subject to talk about that I can talk for hours with anyone, even if I don't know you that well. I think I am the same person, mostly outgoing, on here as I am in real life.

First off, thanks for your comments. I really appreicate everything!
I forgot to add background information. I don't live at home, I have my own apt where I go to school. The only thing my parents help me with is letting me use their car. I pay for school and my rent/utilities. I have 3 jobs at school and I drive home for their meetings (Sunday, and TMS) twice a week. I am going to try to start saving up money to get my own car because I just can't take it anymore. I am pretty much financially on my own besides me using their car.
I'm a very outspoken person, so when it comes to humbling myself with my mom it gets hard, and I am trying, but the more I go to meetings, participate in the TMS, hear how lucky I am to have Jehovah, and gett pressured to go out in service, the more it gets to me, thinking that the people at the meetings can read whats in my head, knowing that I am faking it and that they knew I was going to DA again. I just don't know how long I can keep it up. -

A wonderful person
by cyberdyne systems 101 ini havn't posted for a little while having gone back into a lurking mode, for no other reason that i've not had any opinion or thought to post recently.. but i felt i wanted to do an update on a post i did about some valentine flowers i received.
i discovered who this lady was and despite still having a lack of self worth (like thinking why would this beautiful woman be interested in me) i plucked up the courage to speak to her and we hit it off from the get go.
she is such a gentle, warm and kind person - in fact it brings a tear to my eye just thinking about her lovely qualities.

Share your most embarassing moments
by DigitalFokus inyou have to be able to laugh at yourself sometimes.... here is one of my most embarassing moments.. i was in 7th grade and also the new kid in school.
this happened during one of our first big test's, i think it was my english glass but i am not sure.. i had bad gas for some reason that day and had been holding it in instead of "dusting the crops" in the hallways (which is a great way to shed your gas without having to claim it).
i am sitting in class trying to concentrate on the test while holding in my deadly gas with all the strength my buttcheeks could muster.

my mom and my sister came to visit....
by theinfamousone innow in case you're wondering why this is such a big deal and why the tears are streaming down my face right now, feel free to look at my story as i like to call it.... http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/101870/1758191/post.ashx#1758191.
so i think it was thursday i decided to make a huge pot of my little sisters favorite soup for her... when i went to drop it off at their house, well, they werent home, so i left it there with a note just saying hi to her and my mom, and that i miss them and love them... which is probably a shot at my dad who, well you know what i think of him.... i was quite perturbed because i did not receive a phone call or anything to acknowledge that they had received it... so i was a little worried that my father had found it and ripped up my note and thown the soup away... i know it sounds stupid, but i made the soup for my sister, and i mean, i guess it was just to show her how much she means to me... i guess i could have bought her some kind of present, but i dunno, making something seemed right at the time..... so anyways, finally today i get home from school and find a note under my door... they had both come to visit and they left me a note... well my mom wrote a quick note saying they had visited and were sorry they missed me and thanks so much for the soup and for bringing it to them and showing that i do miss them.... she wishes she had been able to see me... my sister wrote me a letter, and left it under my door as well... she wrote on the enveloppe she wanted to give it to me, but was sad she couldnt see me... she says shell call.... this wouldnt be such a big deal, but its the first contact ive had with her in three months or so... i mean, ive called and left messages, but i dont know if any of them even get to her... this little girl means the world to me... and i havent been able to see her in months.... it isnt fair.... so here i am sitting by the phone, thinking of calling in sick to work, just so i can speak to her, i dont want to miss her call... .
i feel so alone right now, and i just dont know.... im pathetic i know, but i miss her so much..... the infamous one

Wow, I am sorry that you feel this way and you're not a wimp for crying. I think you are brave and mature for taking that over to your family. I think its even more great that they stopped by. Maybe they are realizing that it is selfish of them to stop having contact with you.

So my mom comes downstairs to use the computer and I forget to pick up the stuff I printed off, which was about the Shunned Father's story. And when my mom came upstairs, I was up getting a beer and talking with my dad, she snaps, "Don't you ever print anything off about Jehovahs Witnesses on my computer anymore." That was it for me, "Well I'm sorry that you need to find out about the truth. Don't get pissed off at me because I was just printing something off for your knowledge."
Then she talks about how my grandma died because of a blood transfusion. Which I don't believe is the case, I think my mom is just using as a scapegoat because she wants to see my grandma again in the "resurrection." At that point because my grandma was the most precious person in the world to me, I just snapped, "I guess you are too close minded to look at anything other than what they are telling you to think. I'm sorry for trying to give you some I thought you would find interesting. And by the way mom, we can accept blood as JW - you saw it, just not in whole, what does that say? So don't get pissed at me."
I walk away and come back downstairs, I'm furious right now. I hate how she thinks she knows everything about everything. I hate how I am not allowed to think for myself. I hate how I can't have my own F-ing opinion. I thought it would take me a year to let go, but I'm thinking its going to be crazy for me to stay in that long. I have to find a way to get money and get my own car and get the F out immediately. I'm going crazy inside and I'm starting to cry more and get sad more, and that's just not who I am.
What to do?
