hello everybody, before i begin i just wanna say that i have really found alot of great posts on here that have been helpful forme , theres definitely alot of brilliant people here!.
i am a born in jw(24 years old) ive been baptized for 7 years and was a ministerial servant for 4 years(i am no longer one).
recently me and my parents have have woken up to ttatt(about 2 months ago).
Dear Batman89....
Remember when you were...10? 13? like any girls?
Felt sad when they didn't want you? Then you became 16? 18?
Other girls came along... The others faded...
Once you move on without this girl, you WILL find another..
24 / 25 is still young, surprise, surprise (wait until you are 50, 60, 70)
There is a LOT to life left, LIVE it! EXPLORE it, ENJOY it!
Get in your batmobile and gooooooo!!!!!!
not sure of the point of telling my story, but just got off the phone with my grandma and i am so angry, stressed and i don't know what else...i guess i just wanted to hear from someone other than my husband that i'm not crazy for my reaction to family interaction.. my condensed story gramatical errors and all :).
father was a born in jw, mother was a convert.
i was born the last of 3 siblings and shortly after my birth in 1981 my parents divorced.
Hi Patty! Good for you!
Like 'nando said, and I agree, 'letting it out feels good'... frees the soul,
and I was thinking the same thing Jgnat was: Just show up unexpectedly!
(You should never have to spend another second with that terrible man!)
Hugs to you! & hugs to your hubby who loves you ;-)
Cha Ching!

Ahhhhhh suuuummmm!!!!
sometime soon, we are to be "announced" as "no longer one of jehovah's witnesses".
well, that's what you get for testifying against "glorious ones.".
question is: will this kind of announcement be made the week of the co visit?.
Dear Jhine.... just so you "know" haahaaa (I have to leave for work pretty fast, so here is the boiled down version)
Someone we know, who we have helped, was going to show up at the hall, and stick up for us... Stand up, telll em all to you know what, in a nice way haha... but, when he arrived, his mom (still a dub) pulled the "you are going to give me a heart attack" card.... He relented, called us "wellllll, for my mom's sake, and my mom's sake only, I didn't do it."
He called right before I left.... But, I was going to be there to watch the action... I couldn't just "listen", but since there w/be no action, and my son also said "don't give them the power," I stayed home....
It WAS the night of the CO, they called the new Bethel Boy elder to "the stand" and with a microphone and a stage he had "the power' to DF whomever he needed to.
Whew! life goes on.... I danced to "Brave" this morning, with my husband! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDu42cnB0zs
Had a great time!

Funny, seems as tho we have all fantasized about "what to do" haha, and I AM so dramatic...
Well, it IS 7:30 pm...
2 B decided soon..... :-)
1991 was the last full year i was an active jw.
when i formally resigned in september 1992 my now ex-wife had already pretty much took all of the bound volumes and other society literature.. .
the only thing i was left with was a few copies of the nwt and the 1991 bound volumes the watchtower and awake!
ExACTly Truthseeker...
So sorry this has happened to you, and what makes this abuse so bad, is that when you realize that the "mother' /Borg that taught us to "love our neighbor," has no love in themselves.
THAT is the killer. When you look in their eyes, and you see ice. Cold, hard, uncaring ice. And the bad part is, they make you feel guilty for even THINKING about being mad at them... Ambient Abuse.
Plus, you "will be a bad little boy/ girl/ witness" for talking to anyone, going to a counselor. The very thing someone abused needs... "You will "bring reproach on Jehovah."
NO, the org hs brought reproach, the predator has brought reproach... on themselves... it has nothing to do with God.
"God" is their "get out of jail free card."
if you went to the meeting yesterday, did you notice how utterly watchtarded it was??
it seemed to me that everyone in my kh has accepted the fact that they will die.
that's all they kept saying, even the wt conducting eldumb said, " we have to teach the next generation because we won't be here forever.." wth?!???
The WT is like a machine...
it rolls and rolls forward, grinding up any in the way...
and feels nothing, just like a machine....

Very interesting....
If only the police would be called, and people KNEW the police would be called...
Perhaps? fewer "publishers" would be willing to risk this venture..
It IS a CRIME!!!
my wife and i are presently interstate house sitting for a freind , and this morning 2 jw`s called unexpectedly of course .
after their introducing themselves.
they offered the invitation to the memmorial which i rejected , then let him present his spiel , nothing has changed by the way .. i had them their for about an hour , i`m on holidays nothing better to do this morning except keep them away from other doors .and of course they were prepared to stay.
