  How many 'real" friends did you ever really have in ther "truth'

  by The Lone Ranger in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sure we got to know a lot of people, we knew a lot more people then the average person, but how many real friends did we ever have?

  a friend that we could trust, that we could confine in.

  i can say i had just one, bro x and even then i still had to be careful, bro x is an elder now and he tells me that im the only real friend hes ever had, he cant freely talk to anyone.

  I used to have loads of friends in the truth, I was Mr popular among my peers. Of those there were a few I would have given my right arm for, really close brothers and sisters that I looked on as just that brothers and sisters.

  Then one day my best friends dad went out and committed adultery, his actions spilt the family up and they were all in pieces. The dad got DF'd and the family went to hell. I stuck my nose in found out where John was living and went to have a man to man chat with him to try to patch things up between him and his wife.

  Word got out that I'd spoken to someone DF'd and I found myself unofficially marked. My girlfriend was told to drop me by an elders wife and my "best" mate was told not to invite me to his wedding. within a few weeks i was the congregational pariah, no one wanted to know me.

  How many real friends did I have on the inside...None would be my honest answer. How many on the outside... again none, because what happened to me really scarred me internally.

  So much negativity here !

  Matt I've spoken with your sis over at thoms and I know that you were popular and well liked in your congregation. So its no real surprise that your ex brothers and sisters still like you. Not every dub is a borg drone. Relax, you are loved and missed and that's all there is to it.

  so who have you met who is famous or slightly famous and under what circumstances?

  (for the benefit of cross atlantic variations in celebrity - attach a pic and/or explanation of who that celeb is) .

  or have you never met anyone even slightly famous but have aspirations to do so!

  I witnessed to Dave Gahan, lead singer of Depeche Mode once when he was stupid enough to open his door while I was out on FS. He was going to shut the door on the Elder I was with but i stepped in and turned the conversation around and we ended up talking about spirit creatures.

  Why did you allow the P.O to dictate to you where you go? I'd have told him to get stuffed, it was your MOTHER!
