I'm starting to tell on my husband

by tiffy0212 in

yesterday a brother called the house and asked for my husband.

i told him i'm sorry he is doing his study and i will not call him to the phone.

i told him we do not talk to each other and he would have to call him back around 11:30. he called back around 11:40 and sure sounded different then his first call.

You are right Jamie, physical abuse is one thing, but mental abuse is hell. I sometimes wish I could blow the whistle on him. I have so much on things he has done to me that if they knew any of this they would probably have him knock on the door to get into the hall. Everything I have on him is in black and white I have all of his stupid notes he leaves for me in the bathroom, bank records, food bills. I have to purchase all the food in the home so I keep all of the bills. So much for providing me with food and a roof over my head. I remember a scripture that says if a man cannot provide for his own family, he is like a man without faith and should be removed from the congregation. I am 63 years old and still have to work while he is retired and enjoying life. I could go on and on but it will get me really worked up.

One day he will get his and I hope it is soon.

A JW attending funerals at a church.

by garyneal in

my mother-in-law attend the funeral of her father-in-law (my wife's grandfather on her father's side) at his church (a baptist church).

before we went in the church, she (mother-in-law) told me that she wanted to warn me that if they get into the singing and praising of god, don't be surprised if i see her not participating.

i said, "because of that whole, interfaith thing, right?

My husband lost his mother ten years ago and walked out of the church and when his father died he didn't even go in the church. When his mom died I stayed in the church because I loved her very much and deeply respected her. When his dad died I asked if he was going in the church he said he didn't know, I took that for a no and didn't even attend that one. I never liked his father and he caused many problems. I did go to view the body, but left before the service began. He burned me once by walking out and I wasn't going to let him do it again. So sad to show disrespect for parents that he claims to have loved.

I told him we do not talk to each other and he would have to call him back around 11:30. He called back around 11:40 and sure sounded different then his first call. He asked for my husband and I looked out the front window his car was gone. I told him sorry his car is gone. Do you think this guy will let the elders know that we don't even speak to each other? My feeling is if our family knows how I am being treated so I figure it's time his brothers and sisters know what goes on in this house. After all they feel he is such a fine brother and they even let him pray before the meetings.

Wishing all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPPY NEW YEAR. Thank you for all your support you keep me going.

Christmas, the worst time of year for Jehovah's Witnesses

by koolaid-man in

friends

the holidays are here and they certainly do present a problem for jehovah's witnesses once again.

christmas parties at work, getting christmas bonuses, dealing with holiday greetings, christmas carols, decorated trees and houses, santa claus everywhere, christmas candy, sleighbells ringing brings the witnesses into a very troubling and disturbing time of year.how do most witnesses handle it all?

we will be discussing these questions with former witnesses and active witnesses on the conference call this saturday night, december 19,2009 at 7 p.m. the conference call is presented like a radio talk show program.

A friend of mine works with a girl who is a jw and last year she refused he Xmas bonus, but took it this year. I found out that in the book they are studying Keeping yourself in gods love, it says they can take the bonus. Why they can even go to parties as long as they let people know that they are not there to celebrate, just for the meal.

For me I have decorated my house, have a beautiful tree with alot of gifts for my family. Husband has not said one word to me for over a month. I hope he will file for legal seperation after the first of the year.

To all on this site MERRY CHIRSTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR. Everyone on this site has helped me get through the year and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

my husband just called me.

he said that he's is leaving field service and is on his way home.

i told him to bring something to eat but not anything too heavy.

Good for you. I am so happy he is going with you. I have spent all of my holidays alone without my husband. We are leaving for my son's house and he will not go. My children feel so bad. Give that man a big kiss and tell him how much you appreciate his coming with you. You are one lucky lady. Enjoy your day.

FOUND JW EMERGENCY CONTACT LIST TAKE A LOOK!!!!!

looked into hubby's bag and found this paper.

they want to know person to contact in case of emergency , name of person in case of a disaster or evacuation-where would you like to go?

those who might be traveling with you (name, relationship.

tiffy0212

He has a very small car and I don't think he can get all of this in his trunk. He might have to take out the back seat and pile it all in. His car group will probably have to ride on the top of his car. Where we live we don't have hurricanes, maybe it's in case of a tornado. Doesn't say anything about keeping books and bible in the car. And yes maybe the shovel is for burrying bodies I hope he will bury mine first.
