  Not to minimise your pain, b/c I think most, if not all of us here have experienced feeling anger, frustration, and pain from loosing loved ones, friends and family turning their backs on us (or knowing they will if they decide to leave)...however, have you heard of that saying "Things happen for a reason?" Well, this is a decision you will have to make on your own, but...maybe you should really think about that saying and see if it might apply to you in this case. What does your heart and your gut feeling tell you about this situation? Maybe your prayers really are being answered!

  Best of luck to you, and please know we are all here for you so you are not alone!!

  i have recently reaquainted with an old school friend of mine and her wife.

  I am the same way, and have wondered if there is something wrong with me as well! I can just turn certain people off and that is the end of it. I guess if you lose your family then everyone else would pale in comparison. My husband is the exception to this rule but that is about it. I sometimes wonder if I am normal!

  I came to a realization just now, how about you?

  i have been inactive now for over a half a year, and i am just now realizing that there was not one thing i enjoyed about being a witness.

  i enjoyed my friends and association with witnesses, and still do.

  but i didn't enjoy one thing that we were supposed to do, not one.

  Great post!

  I didn't enjoy one thing either!! In fact, I am bitter about the fact that my whole entire childhood and teenage years were riddled with guilt, fear, and strict confines. I hated door to door, I was so scared someone from school would answer the door and they would have more reason to make school life difficult for me. I hated all the rules!! And the hypocrisy too. I hated how if my skirt was knee-length, people would gossip and my Dad was talked to about it after the meeting. I hated how right after you graduated from school it was basically expected that you would pioneer...and in the summer too during school years.

  I did enjoy some of the friendships I had but was very angry and hurt that when I started to fall away they all just abandoned me.

  Basically I am so glad to be gone, I have never looked back!

  I'm no lurker, I've been gone over 10 years...phew!

  I never thought I would leave, at one time I was a regular pioneer. I had 13 bible studies at one point. I then realized I was in a deep depression and things started to go sideways for me. The hypocracy and the backstabbing was too much! I am so happy to be out.

  I am so glad you seen the light as well!!
