  Amazes me how elders act.....

  most of you know that my husband (iron hill) and i have been trying to do the fade from the witnesses....here's the update!

  my husband's ex wife who is disfellowshipped decides all of a sudden that she wants to get reinstated - i guess cuz we decided not to go anymore - and the guilt of their daughters dying in armageddon is killing her.

  but anyway, she asked us if we would be ok with her coming and taking the girls to the meetings on the weekends that are ours.....my husband denied.

  You know when your dating......

  by LoriJis in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  you know when you are dating you do all those cute things for each other...all the little text messages, random calls, make out sessions, cuddling.

  it's great and you love it.

  but should that all stop or change because you get married?

  "not a good example"

  by LoriJis in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have a concern i guess or just want to vent.

  my husband and i - as most of you know - we're married just a little under 2 months and you all know at that point i was still "active" in the org.

  we had a few issues with our bridal party - namely the groom - cuz according to them he wasnt a good example and not in good status because they hadn't seen him at the meetings or in service for like 2 months.
