I agree with you fifi, but my question is not only about this forum. I mean how do you find dealing with other people, those around you and people you might have some relationship with do they have to fit into some perfect picture you might have about them and if they don't they are being judged for it?

Do you expect perfection in people?
by MariAruet inmany witnesses are perfectionists.
they have this image of what you should be like before they can accept you as a person, but even then you are constantly being judged, so you are never good enough no matter how much you try.
ive been reading posts here for the last few months and have noticed that sometimes people are quite judgmental and even abrasive with each other.

Golf that is so true. I basically stopped going to the meetings because I couldn't stand being judged everytime I'm there. "Oh sister your skirt is too short", "sister your answer is too long/short", "sister just wanted to encourage you to go more out because your 8 hours are BELOW national avarage" that was in begining then it turned more and more personal. But, yes I see similar way of thinking here at times which is a bit sad, you would think that leaving watchtower meant people are free thinkers and not judges, jury and executioners of their friends who are in the same boat.

Witchcraft - Would you use it?
by Sirona inwould you ever use witchcraft?.
do you think witchcraft is dangerous?.
do you think witchcraft is just a set of delusions based on ancient superstition?.
-
MariAruet
No not really, I never met anyone who uses it. I think that is a sign of rather backward society where people are into magic, witchcrafts, divination etc.

lol nvr I hope that was meant to be funny ;-)
Who are you, you explained it really well. I guess not accepting people for who they are might be a sign of someone's own psychological issues. What do you think? and p.s. I love you nickname ;-)

Many witnesses are perfectionists. They have this image of what you should be like before they can accept you as a person, but even then you are constantly being judged, so you are never good enough no matter how much you try. I’ve been reading posts here for the last few months and have noticed that sometimes people are quite judgmental and even abrasive with each other. I was wondering if that might be a leftover from days while still inside the society.
I don't know I might be the same so I'm not trying to pass another judgement here but would love us all to just stop for a moment and think. So, without furhter ado, how about you do you accept people’s imperfections as part of them just being normal humans or do you still have that something that can’t settle for anything but perfection in someone?
Hope I don't get judged for asking such a stupid question ;-)

Are JW's generally better than average people?
by JH ini for one, would blindly trust just about anyone on this forum, just the fact of knowing that you already were a jw.. does this mean that jw's in general are better people or are we a very close bunch of people?.
-
MariAruet
I would say good people are generally attracted to the Society, unfortunately their teaching methods over time twist what was once good in someone and turn it into Frankenstain monster. But I think those who leave are people who refused to be completely turned over
