We haven't been able to find the sheet music though.

yes, i do!
i did it 20 years ago, but the elders still remember what i did, sometimes i wish they never knew about it.
.
I did it. One of the most humilating things I ever did. Then the elder wanted to know the man's name. I said, you don't know him. The elder said, "is his name Carlos?" I said, "No" He asked me that a couple of times. I think part of the reason I got df'd was because I wouldn't admit to "Carlos".

i guess it only took three years, but they were hell in so many ways for both of us...she was not happy and lived in denial as much as possible...i was not happy and lived in a bottle as much as possible and glad that is over for me....but it was one of the saddest things i have ever experienced in my life....as was the visit to my parents before i told her....but yes...she said she kind of expected it...was thinking something was going to happen soon as she noticed i had more and more trouble saying i love you back to her when she said it on the phone at the end of goodbyes...and when i was leaving the house...i had noticed it for over a year and it was killing me..... i told her how sorry i was for changing so much again....and that she still walks on water...and is a great person and so pretty....and that she will be ok because she was happy single before me for many years and had all she needs for that again...her closeness to jehovah and her freinds in the congregation...she is very close to both and will be ok i hope...it was very surreal....very calm...very sad.
my bitterness and disdain for wt rules came through when talking to my parents and i was very open about how i feel as to their upcoming shunning of me, and how it feels to my son since he was just 17....and how the fear of losing them had kept me trying in my marriage for the past few years...dad was firm in his position of future action....mom said they will still always love me...and will still talk to me until i get dfd.....oh how this hurts.....dad said there is a name for people who only live for themselves and deny god but could not think of what it was....i told him i was not living just for myself...that i am a good person and there are values from him and the bible i hope i always have....i cry so hard as i type this and tell you just so you can know how painful this is....i told him i so loved the rule of treating others how you want to be treated and have always done that...even allowing myself to be wronged on so many occasions to keep peace....... he said that was a good rule....i agreed and said it was a big one too....and that while i could do it...treat him the way i would like to be treated...he would not be able to!.......left as i became emotional...big hug from mom, but i just barely put an arm on dad............oompa.
I have a feeling, that although this is extremely painful, it's as if a burden has been lifted.
Stay strong, start a exercise routine and write your thoughts down. Do not start drinking to numb the pain. You will get to the other side and have happiness soon.

what are your thoughts about 44 year old guy dating 22 year old girl?.
My husband is 18 yrs older than I am. We've been married for 17 yrs, lived together for a 18 months before we got married. Seems to be working out.
I was df'd but still believing JW when we met. I wasn't going to meetings, or teaching my children, but in the back of my mind I was still accepting of, 'it was the truth, and I was gonna die'. ;
I have children, they were 12 & 7 when we got married. They called him by his first name, not 'dad', but they are closer to him then they are their own dad's.
He has grown children, only a few yrs younger than I am.

when i first got on this site, i would bristle at the thought that i ever belonged to a cult.. do you believe that witnesses are truly "cultists"?.
I remember the first time some called JW's a cult. I felt sick. I mean, I felt that they could have called them anything, but THAT!
I read all I could find on cults, I could clearly see how certain other religions could be called a cult, but it took a while before, I could see, the JW's were a cult also.
This was the quote that jumped out to me that pushed me over the edge.
When our own thoughts are forbidden, when our questions are not allowed and our doubts are punished, when contacts and friendships outside the organization are censored, we are being abused for an end that never justifies its means. When our heart aches knowing we have made friendships and secret attachments that will be forever forbidden if we leave, we are in danger. When we consider staying in a group because we cannot bear the loss, disappointment, and sorrow our leaving will cause for ourselves and those we have come to love, we are in a cult.
This quote came from Former Jim Jones disciple Deborah Layton....a group that I already knew was a cult.

so proud to share with you the costume i made to go trick-or-treating with the kids last night.
oooooooooooohhhhh scary!
can you feel the presence of the demons?
Years ago, my husband was answering the door to the trick or treater's in a cowboy outfit complete with a gun holster and a real gun. I told him, I thought that was a bad idea and to take the gun out. He was a little irriated with me, but did it. Then he put a banana in his gun holster, since I'm such a party pooper...
The very next kid said.."hey mister, is that a real banana."
Great pictures you guys.

mrs fader and i went over to a friends house to hand out candy.
we only lightly prepared for the occasion, with just a few cool clothing items like funky hats and shirts, but we bought lots of candy.
we initially expected only a few kids and we would be left with a bunch of late night snacks, but we were "cleaned out".
Since you started the thread, and most threads are better with pictures....I'm going to blatantly brag and show off my grandchildren.
