I'll always be a failure

by MrFreeze in

i try to make people happy.

sometimes its to my detriment.

above all i'd like nothing more than to make my family happy.

Lots of great advice on here Freeze that I can't improve on. (Blondie, your post was great)

So I'll just add that I get where you're coming from and know the feeling. For me it is not neccessarily depressing, but there is a pain there knowing your parents are basically drooling frontal-lobotomized drones.

Two things...
1) sounds like a great time and would show up if I could
2) this may be the coolest collection of words I've seen in a while: "I'm meeting CyberJesus for lunch tomorrow at El Torito across from John Wayne airport." Something out of a Tarantino movie.

please use this thread to confirm receipt of your campaign invitation.

take care.

Please pm with details as well, if you don't mind. Been considering methods of subterfuge to perhaps reach my JW family members, could use some ideas. Thanks.

I think an undercover apostate was sitting near me at the meeting this afternoon

this brother was sitting near me today at the hall and when the public speaker started talking about the signs of the last days this guy started whispering something to his wife and kind of mocking the speaker in a quiet voice.

his wife looked really pissed off.. i've suspected this guy before by some of the stuff he's said and done and some of the #3 talks hes given he's gone off the assigned topic quite a bit.. during the wt study i was doing mics and i happened to walk by him several times.

his wt was on the floor and his bible was opened to topic for conversation at the end of the bible at the last days part.. a little while later his wife gave him the look and said something to him and he picked up his unprepared wt and followed along.. hoser.

When the moment is right, casually drop a Beth Sarim reference....then watch his reaction. I bet 99% of the Dubs would not recognize those words, you'd just get a "huh?"

Miz and sizemik....LOL I agree, the story would've been MUCH better if everything happened 3 seconds later. Otherwise its just a "could've been" story.

Tell ya what....if she knocks again I'll try to make a good story happen. Maybe not full-on naked but I'll be at my apostate, hedonistic best.

just as well she had a kid with her... otherwise you could have flashed the white bits and sent her into an early labour

LOL...maybe. One positive outcome could've been scaring that little girl so bad she wouldn't want to go in service ever again.

Move? That's a bit much! Aren't you completely out?

Yeah not moving LostGen...just a joke. Kinda sucks though if they now have this territory. I've been out for about 7-8 years...faded. Separated and divorced around the same time.

Does she know you live there? How long since you seen her?

ThinkAboutIt...no pretty sure she had no clue I lived here. Probably wouldn't call here if she did. I last seen her about 2 years ago...bumped into each other at the bank. We're cool...split was somewhat amicable...wasn't nasty or anything. Just moved on with our lives in opposite directions.

I was going to say she probably was checking up on you to see if you were involved with someone else so as to expedite a relationship with another JW

Scully...since our divorce years ago we have both since remarried.

I would write to the local hall and tell them you want to be a do not call.

I was thinking about that nugget. But it had been some time since a Dub knocked. Just asked my wife the other day if they've come by whenever she's been home and she said no. Oddly, they knock a couple days later and it is my ex-wife. If the old in-laws do have this territory they wouldn't knock anymore once they knew I lived here.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Just had lunch with my wife and told her the story. We have a good laugh. Nutty day.

So get this...this is one strange occurrence that almost ended in awkward disaster. So I took the week off from work to do some home reno projects. This morning I was doing some yard work and just finished mowing the front yard. Done with the yard I decided to take a quick shower.

I was stripped down to the skin when I remembed the freshly washed towels were in the dryer downstairs. So I was just turning the corner to head down the stairs, where our front door is, and heard a knock. Being buck naked I quietly slammed on the brakes and ducked back in the hallway out of sight.

Immediately I thought it might be JWs...so waited out the obligatory follow-up knock. Then I realized I forgot I had left the front door open for some fresh air! I could hear them whisper to each other but couldn't make it out even though they were 15 ft away. Still holding my breath I could finally hear them walk away after the 2nd knock. Curious to see who it was...I slipped into the kitchen and peaked out the window.

It was my ex-wife and a little girl! Seriously...my frickin ex-wife. I damn well came within seconds of meeting them face-to-face heading down the stairs, while being full on naked with my white apostate bits out for all to see. Think that would've been awkward?

There's more....my ex-wife is pregnant. She's huge. She looks like she's ready to burst any minute, and has that awkward pregnant waddle. Weird moment to see your ex-wife out knocking on doors and to see she is pregnant. She's a door-knocker and has another ready to pop out to knock on more doors. Damn those Dubs...wish they'd stop having babies.

So that's that, my Friday morning while on vacation. But what are the odds though? Anyone else ever have their Ex knock on their door in FS? And while you're naked?

One more thing...they went back to a grey minivan that I recognized as possibly being her older brother's. If so, think that means they now have this territory. So I may be getting more future visits from ex in-laws or the ex-wife. Great. Just great. Security has been breached, may be time to move.
