JW's just called at my door, simply handed me the JW.ORG tract and left! JW's now mere leaflet distributors.
by yadda yadda 2 ini'm off work today and its a monday morning.
a male and female jw just knocked on my door, i opened it, the guy just handed me their latest website promoting tract saying "hi, were just leaving these with people today", and then he made to leave.
i looked at the tract and then looked at him as he was turning to walk away and said to him "ok, thanks, but ummm you could've just left it in my letterbox.".

Wow. Now that there have been more responses to the OP and the video, I understand why so many are outraged and shocked by this dance. I hope all of us are able to move forward after being in this cult/ abusive relationship.

Perfect Relationship, He Still Broke Up With Me
by tiff21390 inlast month, my best friend of four years and boyfriend of six months came home from a jehovah's witness convention.
he'd been acting strangely the entire weekend and i knew something was wrong.
i initiated a discussion and he said, "essentially our relationship is wrong and i'm not supposed to be with you.

Advice about going to Meetings...................oh why didn't I listen...LOL!!!!!
by KateWild ini have been back to meetings for a month now.
prepared for them all except for when i went on holiday.. todays wt is about jehovah's organisation, it's clear loaded language and manipulation through fear.
i am not perturbed by it in the least.

Is she in charge of the doctor's office? Heck, is she the doctor herself? I'd have a fit and let the office manager know AND the doctor know if she was acting so unprofessionally in her place of employment- - ESPECIALLY at MY doctor's!
Well Kate, haven't you been somethingof an aactivist already? You do walk up to their tables and engage in conversation debating doctrine with them, right? Yeahhh going back to the meetings was just yuck waiting to happen. Seeking to be actively shunned makes no sense. Im happy you're out again.

"You are good people"
by ateograciasadios inthis story goes back 2 years, when my girlfriend and i traveled to my homecountry in south america to spend the summer visiting my family and friends.
although i was still attending the meetings back then, i had already been inactive for a while.
the developments since that visit have been slow but dramatic, and my perception of the people inside the organization has changed greatly.

Is the International Convention a week long? They talked about it very briefly on the news , basically informing ppl that there would be extra traffic bc of missionaries from out of the country visiting. Also they posted something on the highway sign alerting ppl to extra DC traffic, but Idk if it's related to the IC.
Anyways , definitely an interesting experience. I think the problem with most jws is that they have no real idea what charity and doing for others really means. *Sometimes* they help each other out pf the kindness in their heart, but to non-jws? Only if it's to witness. I struggled with this so much-- the in-group mentality. I'm thankful you were there to help the
woman in need. And I'm thankful for the brother who showed you his IC badge-- just reinforced the silliness and the inanity
of the witnesses! Geezzz I was embarrassed myself about being a Witness after about 5 or more years in.
Im happy you have your gf and her family to show you true love and concern. You are a blessed/fortunate man.
