i helped her move out this weekend so i must be a masochist too...so on top of losing every friend in my life...i have now lost my wife...and yes i asked her to leave on more than one occasion this year...we have argued for nearly five years about wt crap...nothing i could ever say would make her question anything!!!!
it was beyond frustrating...then this spring when i somehow disassociated myself and even lost my parents i knew i would never have a normal marriage no matter what...all i wanted was a normal marriage with mutual friends...that is off the table as long as she is a jw...but why could i not accept it???
why could i not shut up???
I'm sorry to hear it, Oompah. Even when you know it's the only way to call a truce between you, separating from the one you love hurts.
Now it's time to take stock of yourself and begin healing. Restore your self-respect, with professional assistance if that's appropriate. If you want to accomplish anything else, you need that first.
If you're expecting to do that with a bottle, put it down and look somewhere else. Please don't give up on yourself!
well, it's been a while... haven't been on the forum much lately.
with ali's last health scare, it has been a little overwhelming to keep up with everything.... ali continues to improve, in fact, her heart has improved so much that her cardiologist wants to document her case and publish it.
he has never seen someone improve so quickly.
I'm Ali is doing better. Thank you for checking in!
battle over farmhouse rented out as 'an act of charity'.. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/8884561/battle-over-farmhouse-rented-out-as-an-act-of-charity.html.

That *lifetime* part of the judgement defies reason and equity. The tenanrs were offerred a kindness, and returned it with a legal sanction to occupy the property forever. I don't know how it works in England, but in the absence of a documented lease landlords should be able, on reasonable notice, to raise the rent to a reasonable amount or to end the tenancy.
yet another visit from jw's at our door, demanding to speak to only my husband and claiming to be friends of "his family".
it has reached the point that i contacted the sherriff's department and was informed to sent a certified letter to the local kingdom hall.. dh hasn't been a "witness" since his teen years.
i had a falling out with the in-laws (avid jw's) over them hitting our daughter while we were on vacation visiting them.
He's claiming she is not behind these visits
I can't help wondering if he isn't behind the visits. He's acting like he's mentally in the Kingdom Hall, even if he isn't physically there. I can't say for sure this is the case with your DH, but there's a saying among volunteer firemen: "When the going gets rough, you revert to your training." His training was at the Kingdom Hall. Keep that in mind.
julian started his freshman year at jenison high school this year.
he has played trumpet in their highly awarded band programs since 6th grade.
he was going to go home to live with his mother, when he changed his mind and begged to stay and participate in their marching band.. jenison marching band is widely recognized and has won many awards over the years.
Wow, that's great! Tell Julian congratulations for the fine performance and hard work.
i received this and am passing it on email.
(nyc) area by jehovah's witnesses.
god in this project, too.. .
Ummm ... and who, actually, is going to pay for this literature, and these Bibles?
An excellent question! (even if rhetorical)
blogger l. d. ablo (say that out loud) appreciates the watchtower's preaching work:.
"but what about jehovahs witnesses, or jws as they are called?
it seems like i would hate them too, right?
Blogger L. D. Ablo (say that out loud) appreciates the Watchtower's preaching work:
"But what about Jehovah’s Witnesses, or “JW’s” as they are called? It seems like I would hate them too, right?
Don’t I hate Jehovah? And don’t they witness for Jehovah?
Yes, and, well, no. Not really."

the other driver turned left in front of me and i hit him hard.
my car is a total mess.
i'm not sure if they are going to total it.
I'm glad that you're safe! I'm sorry your car is totalled, but glad you're still around to get another one.
it's time to stop saying that jehovah's witnesses do not accept blood transfusions.
it just isn't true any longer.
i have posted documentary evidence of jws world wide accepting whole platelets , whole plasma, whole white blood cells, their own whole blood after it being stored up to six hours, and evidence of them saying they are "very happy" that the courts ordered the transfusion of their children saving their lives.
TheofficialWatchtowerwebsitehasmanyarticles that show the blood policy remains in place. It's noteworthy that on their "medical care" page (the first link), blood is the most prominent issue. While they speak disingenously about blood being a "conscience matter", the articles leave no doubt about what conclusion your "trained christian conscience" should make. They have changed the wording to create "plausible deniability"; they have not changed the teaching, and the Hospital Laision Committee is still in business.
i just came across this on another thread with pictures/photos ,is this for real ?
i couldnt beleive my eyes or ears?.

Why can the African dude wear a dress to Bethel?
