  I am lost! So what happened?

  White Dove works at Taco Bell and a customer who runs a mental health clinic gives White Dove his email address.

  She emails the customer and he responds, eventually inviting her for a date in the park feeding ducks together.

  White Dove thinks a date in the park is dangerous and he may want to have sex with her in the bushes, so she says certainly not, it must be a date in Starbucks

  An email exchange ensues about the heat outdoors in Arizona versus the aircon in Starbucks.

  White Dove interprets talk of "heat in the park" to mean talk of "sex in the park". (Don't worry, I also didn't get this part.)

  White Dove asserts her choice of venue, and many people here applaud her for how assertive she is.

  Taco Bell Mental Health Professional tries to persuade White Dove that a walk by the lake would be nice. White Dove digs her heels in and posts on JWN some more about her deviant suitor.

  Things escalate to two threads.

  White Dove now believes the man she gave her email address to in Taco Bell definitely wants to have perverted casual sex with her on their first date next to the ducks in the park. Under a bush or something. When she's not screaming. And when the runners and cyclists have stopped going by.

  I posted a thread about it and read your responses to him over the phone. So thank you, JWNers for bringing him at least some comfort during his last month and a half.

  You are a good aunt for doing that.

  I'm starting to think it was this guy who dodged the bullet here, not you.

  Love it Cog, thank you.

  Child beating

  some posters here still attend jehovah's witness meetings.

  my challenge to you is..... next time you see a parent beating a human child in public at the kingdom hall, when there are two witnesses - you and one other - call 911 or the police, and report the parent by name, for child abuse..

  He'd probably think you were cool if you brought your Ridgeback puppy, but I suspect you've blown your chances with him.

  I think the obvious hasn't yet been stated.

  How does having a walk by the lake to feed ducks become this ENORMOUS jump to....

  meeting a stranger in a secluded park for sex?

  To be frank, if a guy asked me out and proposed a walk by a lake to feed ducks in the park, I'd imagine he was quite earthy, original, and anticipating a walk in the park along with runners, cyclists, and other people feeding ducks.

  If I were the guy and the girl said "No, I insist on a coffee in an airconditioned franchise environment for 20 minutes since I know you want to pull me under a bush in the park and rape me", well, I'd think you were a bit crazy.

  Or a drama queen. Take your pick.

  Pardon Me, but I Hate My Husband.

  by compound complex in

  inspired by the poisonwood bible, my life as a watch tower missionary and tales of truthful jehovah's witness wives:.

  i pray god will forgive me.

  i hate my husband.. once i was crazy about nathan.

  This is a well-drawn portrait of an unequal relationship....

  My husband merely glowered during the course of my tiny intercessions; I was still in the safe embrace of our householders' company. It was the volley of harsh rebukes that scorched my ears once we returned to our car. I tried to reason with Nathan, attempting to explain my understanding of the Scriptures. Berated and beaten down, I learned to keep my place.

  Since I left the Witnesses I've experienced the same dynamic with a man I was close to who, thank god, I didn't marry.

  It's not a JW thing as much as a dysfunctional male thing.

  i am currently just sick with grief.

  i can't believe this is happening to me.

  all the jokes i've made about me never "falling out of the truth" and self confidence about my spirituality.

  Welcome GrandmaJones!

  Remember, you can't be disfellowshipped for not attending meetings, or for not going out in service. So be true to yourself. If you want to go to meetings to see friends, then go for it. If you don't, then don't. There's no need to explain to anybody, or to lie.

  There is only one lie you will have to tell in order to avoid being shunned. When/if two elders sit you down and ask you whether you consider yourself a Jehovah's Witness, whether you believe that the Governing Body is God's channel today, you'll have to say yes.

  This is a sad reality, and I hope it never goes this far for you.

  I'm sure your kids and grandkids are your most important priority in life. So just love them as hard as you can, and they'll love you back. And I'm pretty sure at least a couple of them are having doubts about the organizational system too, so be a hearing ear and open-minded ma and grandma for them if you ever pick up on it.

  By the way, you're right, you do only have 10 posts a day in the beginning, but it soon goes up to a hundred. Hope to hear from you a lot more.

  Love to you.

  Thank you for your story. I'm so happy for you and your six kids that it had a happy ending. You've emerged from horrendous experiences as a strong woman.

  Sadly, your well-written account is buried in a thread where not many people will read that far, because of MadJW's vitriole. Would you consider copying and pasting it into a new thread?
