Miss it right now but not in the past. I doubt I'll ever really be in a committed relationship and don't really want to be anymore. I don't think there should be anything wrong with that either just like it shouldn't be looked down upon if you don't want kids. Do what makes you happy.

JW Teacher Sues School District For Being Fired Over Valentin's Day
by Bangalore inhttp://dailycaller.com/2016/01/25/suit-teacher-sacked-for-not-throwing-valentines-day-party/.
a former public elementary school teacher who is a jehovah’s witness has filed a lawsuit against the suburban detroit school district where she used to work because, she claims, school officials ordered her to organize a classroom valentine’s day party and then sacked her because she refused.. people who belong to the jehovah’s witnesses, a millenarian christian sect, do not celebrate valentine’s day.
thus, the teacher, yvonne lemmons, is suing for religious discrimination, reports michigan live.. the defendant in the lawsuit is the southfield public school district in southfield, mich.. lemmons, 56, says in her lawsuit that she had been a fourth-grade teacher at macarthur university academy, a public magnet school, for 10 years and had faced no issues concerning her religious beliefs prior to the valentine’s day party kerfuffle..

knock knock
by Sabin inif 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.

A little wine for the stomaches sake.
by olongapo joe inone of my pop's favorite bible quotes.
as a youngster as soon as i could open the refrigerator, the old man would say "bryan get me a beer", and i was rewarded a drink or two from the can, 50 years later, i am an alcoholic, good news is i realize i am an alcoholic and am working on it.
actually hope to replace the booze with weed, as i can get violent with booze, but just chill with weed.

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

Witnesses killed my friend today.
by WasOnceBlind intoday 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....

How do I handle this situation?
by BarelyThere inhey 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.
