  Witness 007 returns to wife and meetings..I give up! Sorry no choice!

  my wife's been having mental problems since hurting her back at work...we split for 8 weeks {her doing} then she rings me and says she "can't cope and is lonely" so i return {the drama continues} she seems more stable, sleeping all night...what a change!

  her mood had become alittle more stable.

  she found a part time job, and has not been dragged off by security like her last job...much improved though she dropped 10 kilos in weight.

  Many may not agree, but you are showing true love.

  Use that love to move her slowly away..It can be traumatic.

  Hi!

  I was raised in Utah. While they were few and far between, there were conversions. I remember a polygamous family that studied, the first wife and most of her kids were baptized. I also think most are out now too.

  They usually didn't listen to preaching. Or they tried to do their own conversion while we were at their door. Our standard reply was, "We came to your door, you come to ours." And any talk from the Bible was quickly dismissed. They believe the Bible "only as far as it is translated correctly". They prefer the Book of Mormon and the Pearl of Great Price.

  But generally they were nice people. Most of my family are still LDS. I have a direct ancestral link to Brigham Young, and an ancestor of mine designed the SLC Temple.
