my wife has been depressed each time we see our jw friends.
she doesn't want to see them anymore, because it reminds her of what she left behind, and it makes her feel bad.. i've offered to go back to meetings for a while to help her break away.
she never wants to go back, but her guilt and anger make her so uncomfortable around active jw's.....it's really bothering her.. any good books out there on breaking away from controlling organizations, especially concentrating on keeping the friendships but not the allegiance to the organization in question?
Ashitaka:
Could the anxiety be coming from knowing that she is leaving Jehovah behind? Obviously Jehovah is not blessing your decision and this creates much confusion.
I'm sorry you are going through this and hope that you will be humble enough to accept Jehovah's guidance again.
i have a quick question: what is jehovah's will today and who is doing it?

seeing that most of those on this forum love to judge others (although the complaint is that jws do the same thing), i am willing to go through a judicial committee.. if you see fit not to forgive, please disfellowship me and shun me.
Calico_Cat:
You have not seen that picture before, because it is the first time that I post my picture anywhere on the net. I dare you to go and find it, if you can't then I will wait for you apology.

refiners fire: Since I did not do what your little mind tells you that I should have done, then I'm not legit. ok whatever.

Calico_Cat: I don't know who you are, but first of all Pure Language does not have pictures and second, I do not post at Greatcrowd, so how could they have my picture?
How come all of a sudden you appear just to call me a liar? I apologized and yet you still call me a liar. Are you casting the first stone?

Alan:
I would like to request that you do not use my picture in your profile. Please. That IS ME and it hurts if people poke fun at my looks.

Amazing: Yes, I will do that. Thanks for your advise.
GoldDustWoman: Yes, I might still call him, but I can't at this time. I'm in my uncles office (it's in his house) and my aunt is with my little cousins in the house. This weekend, Im busy with my parents, so I'll try to give him a call on Monday.
What most don't understand is that it is very hard for me to have some privacy in my own home. My parents are watching me every minute. The only chance I get to use the computer freely is at my uncle's house, since I babysit by baby cousin during the day. Alan keeps asking me to call, but he doesn't give a damn about the repercusions I can face if someone was to find out that I was speaking to him ON THE PHONE.
My uncle has warned me about this. He asked me not to call anyone, because my aunt could walk into the house at any moment. Some have attacked my uncle unfairly. He is awesome, he knows that I am still visiting this forum although my dad forbade it. But he has told me that I must find my own path. Of course he hopes that it leads me back to the Witnesses, but still he is allowing me to make that call.

My name is Stacey, not Stacie. I am a dumby. Oh well...
Outlaw: Since you are such a great detective, why don't you find the telephone number to the hall located in Bedford, Texas, get a hold of any of the elders and ask for Stacey's Dad, then you can explain to him what you told me...Coward.
openminded: I guess you would allow your seventeen year old daughter to talk to a complete stranger from the net on the phone?

openminded: It's not funny to make fun of my looks. I don't see your picture dumbass.
AlanF: You stated why I will not call. You "have a few pointed questions in mind". What is that? You want to interrogate me? I will not talk on the phone with a grown man. My parents do not allow me to do this and if they were to find out, I could be in trouble. I have been warned too many times against sexual predators on the net that attract teenager like myself with their words. I don't care who you are or anyone else says you are. You could be a sexual predator. I certainly don't know that and will not risk it.
Now, I have posted my real picture, I've said where I live (Euless, Texas), my real name is Stacey. If you want to know who I am, come down to the kingdom hall in Bedford, Texas (that's where we meet) and ask for Stacey, better yet ask for my dad.
If you don't believe me, go fuck yourself!

I have posted my picture for all to see who I am. I added it to my profile, I don't know how to make it bigger.
