need some advice from anyone with a nasty ex please.
mine is a bitter, nasty jw, who has a very small iq, low self esteem, bad temper, and upset he got dumped and rejected basically to sum it all up.
so anytime we have to deal with each other on a topic such as the kids, doctor visits and stuff like that, he texts me nasty little digs and insults my parenting and tries to pump himself up to be superdad.
FHN has the right idea, kill them with kindness. My stepdaughters father is a real piece of work, just petty and stupid. But I don't fall for it just always sugary sweet to him and it pisses him off to no end and it is whats best for my daughter. Just never badmouth your ex to your kids. I came from a broken JW home and all my mom did was bash my dad (who wasn't a sweetheart) and i started to resent her for her biterness.
I hope your situation improves
i was serving my kids lunch and my daughter's alphabet tater tots spelled out 'god'... do you think it's a message to change my wayward ways and return to the kingdom hall?.
I wonder if that's how the Borg gets its 'new light'?

growing up a jw, we always had family from out of town visit or we would go visit family.
it was fun to get together with my other jw cousins over christmas.
(however, it was hell going back to school in january as the only girl without a new sweater).. as a married jw though it was a different story.
When I was a Dub I would go snowboarding, and eat chinese food. Now all I do is open presents with my kids then eat a HUGE breakfast, followed by hanging out with nonDub relatives, and then we eat a gigantic dinner and spend the rest of the night watching movies in our living room drinking eggnogg.
so i have a 100 mile daily commute, so i see lots of plates.
i get a kick out of the good ones.
saw 2 hearses- toolate, lastrde, guy in a navy caprice classic-notfuzz; minivan-mmbeer.
L84AD8 and PB4USKI
he lived happily ever after.. -sab.
I watch that movie with my kids at least once a week
ive had people nearly fall over themselves to get away from me?
anyone?.
while walking in the hill section of the town i live in with my wife and three kids (ages 7,2,1) we walked by a brother from my old hall. even though we are walking on a three foot wide section of sidewalk and will be mere inches apart he is so desperate not to make eye contact that he fails to notice the uneven sidewalk which he trips over sending him crashing into some nearby bushes. trying to save face he scrambles back onto the sidewalk and does his very best fastwalk to put distance between him and my evil family.
i know there are some of the "conscious class" on the board (i.e.
yknot, miseryloveselders,elderelite,etc...) do you guys still go in the field ministry?
and if so, what do you focus on?
ele_lux it sounds like your in a tough spot. If you don't want the dramatic exit and plan to fade I would recommend serious planning, it is alot like chess you must be four moves ahead of your opponets. If you are living with JW's I recommend getting your own place if possible, it makes it sooo much easier to fade. All the hard work and bad days are worth it once you have your Freedom. I like you suffered from depression and suicidal thoughts but since i worked up the courage to leave I have started a wonderful family and have never been this happy in my life, i have real friends who aren't conditional and I found that my family have softend on their hardline stance for the most part and have come to accept me for who i am. I wish you the best of luck and remember you have plenty of friends here, so use us as much as you need

When I was a kid there was a brother that we always went in FS with that thought it would build character for me to go to the doors by myself. I used these opportunitys to tell people that if they didn't take the magazines that I wouldn't be allowed back in the car... and they wondered how i placed so many magazines. If you don't want to fade and feel you must go out, the fake knock or light knock work best... if forced to talk pretend to get a nervous stutter, that should get you sent to the backseat for most of the morning.
