Well, I will let you know as I will be attending the meeting that day. Visiting relatives that are JW's so must go to keep up pretenses.

I hope the JWs are paying attention
by lavendar inthe news stations are reporting on the west texas orthodox lds sect compound and the atrocities that have been taking place there.
the sect tells its adherants that "anyone on the outside is of the devil".
also, the sect has previously predicted the end of the world.

Heaven's Gate is what got me to thinking. When I saw all of their video's before they committed suicide, I had an AHA moment.

Need a guys opinion and ladies feel free to chime in!
by TweetieBird ini have a "friend" and i say that loosely because i don't think that she is a good friend.

Her boss was probably married as well.
He was! She slept with him for a few months, while she was with her boyfriend, and now she's dumped both of them.

Thanks for all of your comments. I agree with all of you that she is not a true friend. She is one of those girls that has to be the center of attention and preferable male attention of any kind.
Casper, I'm with you...I am very territorial.
As for hubby, he and I have a great relationship and are always brutally honest with each other. He has mentioned to me before (when out with her) that we need new friends so that won't be a problem. He just didn't think we needed to be mean to her and that's what pissed me off. He asked me if I wanted him to say something to her but I told him no, that I would take care of it.
I like Terry's advice also. Thanks!

When you guys are out with her,how much attention does he give her?
Nothing out of the ordinary. But if I go to the bathroom or outside for anything, when I walk back in she has plopped down in the seat next to him. I've mentioned this to him before and he is aware of it, but says that I shouldn't worry about it because a) he loves me and b) he finds her totally unattractive. He says she looks like a possum (sp). She's not bad looking, has a decent body but she belches out loud (really loud) all the time in front of everyone, which is really crude in my opinion.
I think he enjoys the attention she gives him cause she's about 10 years younger than us, but I think that is as far as it goes.
She's very out-going, makes friends every where she goes but I feel that she's a user. She seems to latch on to a couple of people for a few months and then she's on to the next one.

I need help! I have a "friend" and I say that loosely because I don't think that she is a good friend. She only calls me when my husband is in town to do stuff with her, i.e. go to lunch, etc. It's always an invitation to the both of us. She will call my cell phone first and if I don't pick up right away she immediately calls my husband's cell phone and invites "us" to lunch or the beach, etc. My husband (whom I will call Mike) is only home every other week. The week's that he is gone, I don't hear from her, if I call her she doesn't answer her phone which she keeps glued to her. I've been with her enough times to know that she looks at who's calling and will only answer if it's someone she wants to talk to. I have even tried to call her in the past and she won't answer, but when I use DH's phone she picks up immediately. Hmmm!
She recently broke up with her live-in boyfriend, of whom she was fooling around on with her boss, whom she's now quit sleeping with cause she is probably looking for her next victim...my husband. She refer's to him as "Sexy Mike".
My DH and I got into a fight last time he was here because she called to see if we wanted to go to lunch with her and I got pissed and said to him, "why don't you go by yourself." He said that was uncalled for, that he doesn't think we should be mean to her. I personally don't give a you-know-what about her feelings.
Should I be concerned?

by yourmomma ini am curious if anyone you know of anyone with experience in a situation where they have a df mother, father, or sibling that for instance has cancer and is dying.
what if the person is alone?

I was faced with this situation when I was still in. My dad became quite ill and died shortly thereafter. There were a couple of elders that came by to actually visit him, even though he had disassociated himself years earlier and was definitely "apostate". The night he died (at home) an elder actually stayed at the house mostly for support to family but my dad also. I was glad at the time that he didn't let the organization control what was in his heart. It was the right thing to do. Fortunately, the congregation (a really good one at the time) really supported my mom during this time. It reminded me of what it used to be like when I was a little girl...a much different time back then.
I think most witnesses will let compassion be the rule in this situation. I've been to funerals where the deceased had df'd relatives and many (not all) would give them a hug and tell them how sorry they were for their loss.

Right after my dad died (he had disassociated himself 10 years before he died) is when I finally felt compelled to start investigating all of the things he tried to tell me about the organization. This was such a strong feeling that I felt like it was supernatural in nature. I mentioned this to my brother who had left the organization about the same time my dad did and he told me that dad always felt like I would come around someday. I don't know if it was just coincidence, but I definitely felt like my dad was urging me on to find out the truth about "the truth".
