You are a very special person who can nail someone or something to the wall when they deserve it, but show warmth and affection to the needy. I've found that many people may be very good at one or the other, but rarely both. You excell in both catagories.

by Xandria in

i did not date until 19 ... and married the only person i dated.

he kept going of course ( which may of been the wise choice) for she may of done him in if he stopped.

luckily she made a mad dash for the door and made inside in record time.

I wasn't raised in the truth, so I could "date" with plenty of supervision. When I was 12 years old, I had a boyfriend who wanted more than just kissing. We went to a school dance, me in a hand me down satin dress that was way too grown-up for me, and him in his best jeans. We sat side by side, never spoke, he finally dragged his chair over to his buddies. I sat there with with sweaty palms and a trembling heart.

Finally the damn thing was over and my mom picked us up and took us home. When we dropped him at his house, his first and last words of the evening were, "Well, thanks anyway!" Next day he asked me for his locket back. Guess he thought it would be a nite of wild abandon since we were away from home. What an asshole. Probably we were both assholes.

as of 8:30 pm this evening the appeal hearing decided to uphold the decision.

i spoke to them for over an hour and tried to reason with them as to the validity of their decision.

frankly, they were not interested.

my copy of crisis of conscience came today!

i also got a copy of understanding mind control among jws.

so far i am very impressed with both of them.

Duckling,

I can certainly empathize with your statement...Why did'nt I research all this and doublecheck what I was told. In my case, I had complete trust in the older couple who studied with us. I guess I thought they walked on water. Pretty dumb, huh.
