Well the straw that did it for me was this,I used to live with an elder and his family. I lived with them for 8 months. I caught a bad stomach virus and had to go stay with my parents till I was better. While I was sick she called and told me I had to move out. What started out a virus turned into a month long stay in bed not being able to hardly move because of pain. The entire time I lay in that bed not one person from the cong.(which I had gone to for 17 years)came to visit me. I lay there every day thinking of the wonderful "CHRISTIAN" love that was being poured into my home. I went back after I got better but started seeing a "worldly" man. The elders found out about him and that very week came to my home to council me on the no-no's of dating a worldly man. Needless to say I havn't been back since. I've been out 10 years and loving every minute of it.

Straw that broke the Camels Back
by Perfection Seeker inso, whats the straw that broke the camels back in your life?
what was the final last straw that made you say thats it- no more?
i have so many-for 15 years i kept getting that last straw-and trying to ignore it- but i think the last straw was when my dad died- everyone kept (keeps) giving me the line of bs about never seeing him again unless i go to meetings.

by KKLUV155 inthis is my first post, just wondering how long after you left the borg.
did it take you to get rid of all your books and literature.

Assemly food tickets - WHY??
by home_and_dry ini was laying in bed last night thinking how lucky i am that i havent had to undergo the mental torture of attending the district convention.
then i started reminiscing about the old days and i suddenly remembered those ridiculous tickets you had to buy to pay for food.
they were those brown cheap cardboard type efforts with i think 10 tickets per sheet.

I remember those tickets. I used to love the assembly food. I came from a very poor family and it was the only time in the year that I could get something different than red beans and rice. I remember making fans out of them. LOL. What a boring time.

WHY D.A YOURSELF??
by In_between_days inhi guys,.
this is a question for those that have dissasociated yourselves, and it might seem really stupid.. a while back i had a conversation with my parents in which i claimed that if i had ever been baptised i would have certainly dissasociated myself.
i asked whether or not they would still have contact with me.. they said yes, but would avoid having me at family gatherings.. i was not happy with this, but at least it was'nt as bad as shunning.. despite my standing now, my parents are now starting to get over it, and have been great, i cannot imagine my parents shunning me, despite anything i am still their daughter.

Hi, New here. I DA'd myself about 1 year ago. The reason I did was as long as I was still inactive I felt like I had to look over my shoulder to see if any of the JW's were looking. I felt as long as I was just inactive the JW's still had "strings" attached. When I DA'd myself I chose to cut all strings. I felt great!!! I feel more at ease.
