  hello everybody, i was wondering if anyone has been guilted or emotionally blackmailed into attending the memorial this year.

  something along the lines of "if you loved your family you would at least attend the memorial".

  i myself haven't attended in 5 years.

  hello everybody, even though i don't post a lot, i visit and read the threads on this site quite frequently.. wanted to give you a little update and ask for some advice at the same time.

  since my exit, about 2 years ago, everything had been almost perfect.

  i was living on my own, making new friends, elders from my old hall weren't bothering me at all, i was enjoying life.

  hello everybody, so i've been out of the wt for almost a year now.

  i did go to the memorial last year, but that was pretty much the last meeting i attended.

  thing is, as a born-in, i have never missed one, this will be the first.. don't get me wrong, i have absolutely no desire to go back, but after all these years there's a weird feeling about it.

  I decided not to go back to the KH

  well, as i mentioned before in one of my few other posts, i've been lurking here for some time now and finally decided it was time to face the facts and take action.. i was raised a jw (4th generation) and my parents were quite zealous when they got married.

  mom was a regular pioneer and dad was a ms. i was the little jw 'rockstar' in my congregation, got baptized at 10, was giving talks and serving as an attendant at the hall and at conventions at such an early age.

  auxiliary pioneered whenever i could.

  so, i am thinking about voting for the first time in my life.

  even though there is a questions from readers article that basically mentioned it is a conscience matter, we all know what the unwritten rule is.. problem is, even though i'm mentally out, i'm still physically in.

  do you think that if i'm seen at the polling station by the witnesses i could suffer any consequences?
