if jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.
my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?
he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.
They know who I am. One time they came around back and I was not appropriately dressed AT ALL. I just acted like nothing was wrong and they were to afraid to look at anything but my eyes... 😂😂😂
That ended that conversation quickly but I was willing to talk... Lol
today has been a horrible day.
what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.
i was in shock and didn't ask how.
This has taken me days to read as it's so completely heartbreaking and hits so close to home for me. I'm so sorry for your loss.
I had complications in giving birth to my first child and was faced with having to make a decision about the blood transfusion. I had figured out ttatt but had it been a year prior it could have so easily gone the other way... It was scary, and I was very, very sick and had a hard time thinking straight.
Please understand, in those final moments she was very, very sick. She didn't know ttatt and couldn't think straight. I don't believe she had the thought process to fully understand the consequences of her decision at all in those moments and completely reacted in fear because she was already scared. I remember that feeling like it was yesterday.... I'm so sorry for her and for her precious baby...
What an awful thing to happen...
I'm so, so sorry....
hey everyone.
i'm sorry that this isn't a very thought provoking post but i could really use some advice on how to handle this.
there isn't anyone else in my life i can ask right now because, being dfed, all of my friends are "worldly" and don't know how witnesses function.
I gave you the congregation’s viewpoint.
This is a relief. I about had heart failure. I take back my comment to you and apologize.

cognac...if there is a little room left will you please scoot over and make a space for me to stand beside you against the bullies?
Awwwww, consider me scooted over.... :)
Incorrect word choice, IMO.
She does not choose - she has been mandated to do this by her leaders.
WT creates "emotional martyrs."
I disagree. Everyone has to make a choice. We might be understanding or sympathetic to varying degrees, however; they still are making a choice.
how do you faders/inactive handle being asked to the memorial by family?
I'm faded but have been outted as an apostate, so I can't imagine anyone inviting me... I'd only consider going if my parents invited me, which I very, very highly doubt they'd do... Otherwise I'd just say no. What are they gonna do?

What if you can't afford an iPad??? Most people don't have a lot of data they can use on their cell phones.
This is crazy.... What if you are older and don't even know how to use the internet???
