this morning i get a frantic call from my sister (who has been baptized 1 year and one month and never attends meetings anymore).
in tears she tells me that this morning my father picked her up in the car and told her that i was am apostate.
that i no longer loved jehovah and that i was going to be disfellowshipped.
I love the way this has played out. You did it your way.
Sherry
please tell my thirty-six year old niece what you would tell all your loved ones if they were to go back to the cult because they wanted to see their loved ones again.. she was df'd at sixteen for being a teenager with an anxiety disorder, her dad had walked out on her and her family(2 other sisters) when they were young and never supported them or the mother.
all of them had to live with their grandmother.
after the last child left home, their father has their mother move back in with him.
April, you are still young enough to have your own life, your own husband, and your own family. Why take someones leftovers when you don't have to ?
You already have problems without making more for yourself. If you go back to the JW's you will be sorry.
When I was almost your age ( 32 ), I knew I wanted to be married . I went through a few prospects. They had to have little or no baggage. ( ex wifes )
Had to have a job, be smart, fun ,good lover.......and I had to be in love.
Met a guy who fit the bill, he was 27 years old. Don't dismiss the younger ones....you are still young enough that this can happen to you too.
If you go back to the JW's, well, theres not alot of men to find. I don't understand why a young women like you wants to be with
someone who has already made a life......Get your own.......and not your sisters either ..... YOU GO GIRL !!
If you are soooo much in love with this guy that you can't do this, can't find a better life , can't give him up . So be it , but remember he
has a family. Someday there will be grand kids too. You can never change that. If you change your mind later. It will most likely be to late to have the dream I am telling you about.
The dream will pass you by Forget going back to the JW's, they will shatter ALL your dreams. Do you really want to live in the lie ?
Do you really want to be like these people who shun you ? Do you really want someone telling you how to dress, what to read,
what movies you can see. Don't forget the day may come YOU will have to shun someone.... All this is just MHO
HUGS Sherry
dear jwn,.
when i was out in field service yesterday i was approached by some sisters asking me how my dying dad was doing.
i said "i try not to visit him, you will have to ask him yourself.
Your last post I thought you were getting a little soft. You've come back with a BANG. You sound more like the Aunt Connie we love.
again, i apologize to any who think i may be going overboard posting these letters, but i am hoping that i can help prepare others for the type of bombardment that they may face when dealing with mentally diseased witness parents who have no idea just how much control this cult has over them:.
august 19, 2013. dear <my name removed> & <my wifes name removed>, .
i had the privilege of attending the convention this weekend for a second time and i must say that i enjoyed it more than the first.
The letter starts out pretty normal. It gets stanger and stranger as it goes on.
She still can not stand that you have a beard.
You may have some object in your home causing all this.
Maybe it's your thyroid.
Just be happy I did not get an abortion, you owe me !
Jehovah AND HIS CHANEL , not Jehovah and Jesus is the way, the truth and the new light ....lol

which jws do you think actually feel confident that they would survive armageddon if it came tomorrow?
gb members?
bethelites?
BU2B, I felt the same way growing up. I NEVER thought I was good enough to make it. I thought I would die in 1975 . I would be 21 years old and dead.
That is why I got pregnant and married at 16. I wanted to get as much living done as I could before the big A. I believe very very few JW's feel secure.
Why did I have to live in guilt and fear growing up ? Why did I have to be so scared to turn 21 ? Because I was raised in a cult.
That is why I am Scary 21.....................

i figured he was going to arrange the committee and try to get me kicked out after the whole "big pile of books" labelled "take this shit".. well his call made me realize that more and more people ... elders included no longer take this religion seriously.
after he told me he heard what happened he actually laughed and said i would never expect that.
he then told me that it is apparent that i no longer want to be connected to the organization.
I am pleased to hear you are not giving your hard earned money to family that are going to kick you out of their lives.
It would be kind of funny to choose the "disappearing act " and then see how far you can go before they DO disfellowship you.
A thousand Christmas lights on your house.
Very vocal to everyone
More Halloween decorations than anyone on your block
Maybe some flyers put on the cars at the KH.
Could make for some funny stories !
Scary Sherry
this is the exchange of text messages i had with my super spiritual brother.
it is sad... it is pathetic... it has helped me realize that i have no connection to these people anymore.
i feel free today.
They should file for bankuptcy......Let your yes mean yes........He is WAY past that...He means,yes my son will pay for me....WTH
So what if his credit is ruined and he can't buy anything on CREDIT again. He is 75 and bought things he could not afford, and that is your problem ?
I say ,dont do it !
Now if he was homeless it would be different He could come live with a disfellowshiped person and never speak to them. That could be very interesting at the dinner table.....lol
I loved your answers to your brother. He sounds like he is from a other planet. This is so over the top crazy.
i have bona for years but i am looking to try something else.
any recommendations?.
I love wood floors. Used some floor cleaner the other day and the floor looked a little streaked. I remembered something I saw on FB. I mixed a little vineger in warm water with a dash of olive oil. They look GREAT. I still like carpet in my bedroom.

i had a business meeting this evening, hubby elected to stay home with the kiddies (he could have come with me), as he said "you need a break, have some time alone'...so considerate...so i thought.
upon returning home, he had popped one of the new dvd's released at the convention, don't know the title, of some young brother who gets fired from a job and goes for a drink with a buddy from work.
it is very annoying that he pulls these little tricks on me, act like he is doing me some favor or being considerate then pulling one of these jwisms...like the time he booked an appointment with a physchiatrist, and he wanted me to go along to discuss his insecurities in our marriage because i had learned ttatt...he conveniently left out the part where the doctor is a jw.
Watch some nice DVD's with your kids. Make sure they have lots of MAGIC in them......Harry Potter....Wizard of Oz......Lord of the rings...Oh and don't forget the smurf movie....lol All great for the imagination right ?
