DJS,
"You lost me...."
Sounds like you are lost in a very dark place.

Thanks Oneyedjoe
I understand what you are saying.
I've been a selfish person my whole life. No more. It's not about me.
At first I had heartache, but no longer.
She is a Beautiful soul, but she is so tormented. So, I'm here to help her.
I agree that She, alone, has to make the right decision. I'm hoping and praying that she does.

OneEyedJoe,
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate your opinion.
You could very well be right and that's the way it will turn out in the end.
"...you have no obligation to this girl".
But that's the thing. In my soul I feel a spiritual obligation. I don't need her love or her warm body. I need to help her. I have unlimited girl friends.
It can't be explained with just words here.
We'll see. I'll post the result when the time comes.
Thanks Man!

the noble fir.
the fir tree stands silently in the corner of our living room: proud, erect, strong.
even unadorned, it is beautiful.

Zana, OneEyedJoe,
Zana,
I apologize. I'm not trying to hijack your thread. Just want to praise OneEyedJoe's profound analysis of JW "brainwashing".
"It just hits her emotionally as a big red flag of fear and terror and sadness... and she can't handle it and shuts down. It's designed to do this so that you can't get past it. It's designed to be a wall too tall to climb so that she won't put in the effort even if you try to work through it with her. That said, it might be something you can get past, but be patient and go slow because it's going to be difficult for her."
OneEyedJoe
Your words are absolutely brilliant !
They aptly characterize the situation I've been facing in trying to get my Non-JW self together with a really special JW gal, where there is obvious mutual attraction countered by JW "brainwashing". Very sad.
