Yes, I'm guilty of being thrilled for ANY excuse to dress up that the cult could provide. The problem is that when I was young I dressed like a fashionable woman in her 40's or 50's. Brainwashed to think Young=bad old=good. Stupid

how many women out there found the meetings an excuse to dress up.

Kari, you said on another thread that he is a serial cheater and you knew it when you married him and that he has cheated on you as well, but you will continue to forgive him because you love him and were raised to "be in subjection". It doesn't seem to me that his missing your anniversary is your biggest problem.

Welcome welcome to all of you newbies!!! It has been just about 2 years since hubby and I realized TTATT. The first year was an emotional roller coaster as I'm sure it will be for you as well. However, the second year has been like an anvil has been lifted off our necks. Our focus is to put the past behind and plan our future without the burden of Watchtower control. Cheers to you all!!!

Caupon, I too, am terribly sorry your mother is blinded by the thought control of the Watchtower. You sound like a person any mother would be proud to call her son. This is not you, it is her FEAR of loosing you-either at Armageddon or growing independentof her. Try to be civil and respectful while preparing to be on your own. You have friends here. Hugs.

Untrustworthy people can't/don't trust. Trustworthy people trust-sometimes when they shouldn't. We tend to think others think and behave like we do. BIG MISTAKE. There is no balance of power in your marriage. You have given all of yours to him. The question is why have you done this? Is your self esteem so low you think you don't deserve better? Are you afraid he will leave you if you require an equal partenership? If the answer is yes, please seek out a therapist and/or marriage counselor. This relationship is unhealthy.

by life is to short inmy husband just gave me the latest km the novermber 2013 and it yet again has a question box on head coverings.. question box "should a female publisher wear a head covering if she is accompanied by a male pubisher at a doorstep bible study?".
it says "when a female publisher conducts a reagular, scheduled bible study and a male kingdom publisher is present, she should wear a head covering.
(1 cor 11: 3-10) the july 15 2002, issue of the watchtower page 27, explains: "this is a prearranged session of teaching where the one conducting the the study actually presides.
