according to her ladyship's group of pals, what today's woman wants in a man, is the ability to fix things!.
so many chaps are totally inept when it comes to climbing ladders, wielding a screwdriver or wiping a joint, that wives are getting a little pe'ed off with men who just want to show their feminine side.
todays woman wants her man to be a do-er, a fixer, a man who creates, a man who can and does!

this is the response from my daughter to the letter that i sent to her which you can view in "letters to my daughter -- part 1".
i choose not to use her conversation, but i will paraphrase it.
subject: your point of view
This is the response from my daughter to the letter that I sent to her which you can view in "Letters to my daughter -- Part 1". I choose not to use her conversation, but I will paraphrase it. Subject: Your point of view She did thank me for sharing that with her.
She also expressed a wish for me to keep the agreement we made to each other.
Also seemed to her that I was insistent on pushing her away.
Mary _________________________________________________________________________________ This is my reply to her:
Subject: Re: Your point of view You now know how I feel. I don`t see how that is pushing you away. Do you mean away from me? Perhaps someday I will be able to speak candidly with you.Too bad for me. I WILL do my best to keep our agreement. I will continue to remain positive in my life and try my best to have peace in my heart. Love you always, you are my sweet darling daughter. Mom Please no emotional blackmail, it will no longer work. _______________________________________________________________________________ This will be harder to paraphrase, I hope to convey her stance with the WTBTS. There was a thank you for my note. She assumed full responsibility for our communication going downhill. Her expression is one of loving me very much. She has made the affirmative to do her utmost to give no emotional blackmail as I would be trying as best as possible to keep our agreement.
She is happy to hear that I am doing my all to have peace in my heart. She did affirm that I was trying to push her away from me. And does not desire any more candid talk. She said that I had explained myself very clearly and does know where I stand on the matter. She made the statement that we have many more things in common to share.
When she was "blackmailing" she could only say that it was unitentional and did not desire for it "to work." She has stated that she wants what makes me happy, whatever I CHOOSE for my life. Her expression, she knows that I want the same for her.
Love,
Mary _______________________________________________________________________________ I suppose that I should have called this "Letters from my daughter". My main reason for sharing these letters is for people that are shunning, and for people who are reading, to see and feel the pain that is inflicted with this practice. My daughter and I are begining to bridge the huge gap that was caused by this religion. It has taken over ten very long (for me) years for us to get to this place. I am not sure why she is willing to have a mom/daughter relationship with me. She may one day let me know what has changed her mind. For now I am not going to question it, and she knows that I was always here. To anyone that is being shunned and locked out of your loved ones life, don`t give up. Throw yourself in there and give them a call. Send a present. What ever the hell you want to do to let them know that you love them. Don`t be surprised or upset if you get a coldness, or no response. Never forget that they love you too. The problem is that they are being influenced by a destructive cult. One that does not have feelings about tearing people away from the ones that they love and need the most, and will continue to love and need throughout their lives. witchywoman

many people on going about their everyday activities whether it's the shopping in town or meeting up with friends someplace don a mask as a disguise against allowing others to see their true feelings on the inside.. what coping masks do you wear, in which situations and do you know why you do this?.

Pardon me if this gets lengthy, but you did ask.
I have danced the romantic tango with many a man, and tried to find the soul behind the eyes. (first mistake). Now I have always enjoyed the romantic dance, and it is nice. Once the romantic dance has reached it`s finale, I have found that the music stops. Attempts to rekindle (second mistake) the romance and the passion of the tango become futile. I have come to realize the word relationship means the same thing as having a convenient sex partner. After having been in these little dances and trying to force a man to admit (third mistake) that this is all it, was is also futile.
To protect myself from this huge waste of time my face that I wear is direct and to the point and I have forced many men to be blunt with me. It works (as long as you are not in a relationship with him, he figures, what have I got to lose?, sex, no). I have gotten straight forward answers.
Something that always comes back to haunt me. In my last few years with the watchtower there were several talks (mostly directed at the brothers) to be loving to their wives. I know of one brother that always when giving these talks used to ask, can a man live with, or be married to a woman and not love her? Yes. Can a woman live with and be married to a man and not love him? No.
Damn watchtower, they got that one right.
My game face? WHAT THE F**K DO YOU WANT!

Your attempt to express your feelings were excellent. I have no experince with being raised in the truth. Many people here do, and you are in the right place. I am not good with the computer stuff. If you look for Miss Lady Lee and follow her around she is a great lady and one hell of survivor.
Keep your poems coming, you are not only helping yourself, but your sharing is helping others too. Where ever you can find some consolation take it. Don`t ever turn away help when someone offers it to you. It is time you had some goodness in your life, you deserve it, and you always have deserved it. It is your right as a human being.
I`m sorry you had to endure so much pain at the hands of your own parents. I am so terriblly sorry that all of that shit has happened to you.
Welcome aboard! And let me say that I am happy to hear you are "Free to be YOU"

i wanted to express to you how i felt at the vicious conduct of fred hell towards you earlier today, but i did not want to post it to his thread.
as a general rule i avoid posting to troll threads; it only helps them to get their rocks off.. i just wanted you to know how much i admire you and admired the way you stood up to him today.
insensitive people like that do not think about anyone else, only themselves.
Duckling you are a doll.
Jesika, Fred Hall is a representation of the scum of the earth that he follows. The only humane excuse that I can come to about him is that he is genuinly retarded. His thoughts and ideas have no structure. I think he is a retard. I don`t mean that as a joke. I think he is "special". You know what I mean. As in special education.
Don`t let the likes of someone that stupid keep you from growing.
