  Is it ok to shun Jehovah's Witnesses?

  by Missanna in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  let me explain myself... for instance when your friends and family keep changing their minds... like my sister she didn't want to talk to me, then we started talking again and now she is back to shunning me.

  same with my once best friend we were fine with each other's beliefs then one night she tells me in order to have god's favor she has to shun me.

  now she's talking to me again.

  If that is what you have to do to protect yourself from your family & former friends, than go for it. That is the stance I have taken to keep from being bruised and battered emotionally by wishy-washy people.

  Leaving a bad marriage is not easy, but as each day passes and you get a little happier and enjoy the freedom--it is worth it. Good luck!

  Japanboy--love should be the motivating factor in getting back with your ex-wife.

  Looking for advice from anyone out there with grad or advanced degrees

  by NYCkid in

  2. friends

  hey, i'm finishing up my last year in undergrad school and am considering pursuing grad school.

  i am hoping to chat with individuals privately, who are attending grad school or have a graduate/advanced degrees for advice about the practicalities and expenses relating to attending grad school later in life (mid-30s +).. i'm not pursing medicine, law or business, so i'm concerned that the effort and expense of grad school may not be worth it.. thanks,.

  nyckid.

  2. friends

  i have been researching on and off and just started up again for my dad.

  i've gotten back to 1869 and could get further, but all i run into is adds to pay on line companies.

  has anyone ever subscribed or used one of these out fits.

  My favorite website, in addition to the ones mentioned, is onegreatfamily.com. It is subscription based. The census records are a great place to gather information. Also, the ellisisland.org if your family immigrated to the US.

  Bad Dream

  by PoppyR in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  4am in the uk, and i was jolted awake by a dream about my mother dying, she is not in good health.

  i felt overwhelmingly sad that if this happens, she will die in sadness over me.

  and also very upset because she is my mum and i want her to love me and be interested in my life and that just isn't the case any longer.. i realise i am 'luckier' than some on here because at least she speaks to me.

  Poppy--I feel your pain. Last year when I was booted, I lost all my sibs except one, all my lifelong friends and I left hubby. It was lonely at first, but I very determinedly went out and made a new life for myself. You have a huge support system here so you are not alone!

  That is funny! Did she learn to open the door or did she sneak in when you weren't looking? My cat likes to hide too, but she has never made it into the fridge.
