  I've had enough..

  by raven in

  so last night, after thinking "wow those pesky elders have finally left me alone, maybe since i skipped out on their jc invitation back on august 1st they've given up" wrong.. i go to check the mail and there's an envelope at my front door- lo and behold, another letter from from these elders.. why won't they leave me alone already?

  i'll attach a picture of the letter.. again, same letter as the first one inviting me to a judicial committee on august 15th - and signed by all three elders.. should i just continue to ignore?

  quite frankly i don't give a rats arse i've been enjoying life free from the mind control of the organization, and i just wish they would drop it and let me live life.. like i mentioned before, i am moving to a new home next week, the only reason these elders have my current address ( which happens to be over 100 miles away from the cong ) is because my mother gave it to them, after i gave it to her in confidence to forward me my mail.. so lets just say she won't be getting my new address... i don't have any contact with ones from this congregation (i'm an ex pioneer, so i'm sure if they've gotten word on what i'm doing, i must be satan himself!

  Raven,

  What some of us told you would happen, on your first post about this, is happening in the exact manner we described.

  The same advice is applicable now as then. If you don't care now or forever that they DF you then do nothing.

  If you do care get a lawyer and have the lawyer send them a threatening cease and desist letter. It may or may not matter, likely not since it has proceeded to this point.

  Same advice we gave you months ago.

  If you meet with them you will have to lie, lie and grovel or hope they are both blind and forgiving in order to keep from being DFed.

  And then you will have to immediately change back to being a good little chaste dub girl. Or rinse and repeat.

  My Refurbished Web Page

  i know that many here are no longer believers, but i also know that there are still some participating in this forum who consider themselves christians.

  i recently refurbished my web site extensively, and thought some of you might enjoy browsing it.

  some of my articles are aimed at exposing unbiblical teachings of the watchtower, and my video presentations on "darkness in the watchtower" and "the watchtower's mad science and bad medicine" have been particularly well received.

  Suffering with "Bridge-over-River-Kwai-syndrome" while fading

  i've never liked being late for meetings, 10 minutes early has always been 5 minutes late for me.

  i'm a very punctual atheist at the meetings still.. when someone asks a simple question from the platform and not one dummy raises their hand, i still feel the need to raise my hand so that we don't all look like idiots.. my shoes still need to be clean and polished, my suits and ties match and are in good shape.

  i never wear them anywhere else.. i still feel like saying hello to people that are obviously being ignored by everyone else.. people not singing out still bugs me, lol.

  What Rebel8 said. Times 1000.

  TwoGroups, major kudos on using the BOTRK reference. Excellent. Major points deducted for the rest of it. Unless you are attending meetings because someone has a gun held to your head, I'm not feeling it.

  Cold turkey or fade. Those are your options (I'm assuming telling everyone, during your next talk, that they are in a death dealing cult run by evil DarkLords isn't an option).

  While you are there I would suggest: sleeping, playing with your smart phone - routinely getting up to go take/make 'important' phone calls, checking out the hot sisters (or brothers, or both, whatever your flavor(s)), or shooting yourself in the head with a nail gun full of rusty nails.

  Otherwise, why spend any energy worrying about these dysfunctional misfits and what they do or don't do? It's akin to going to the all you can eat buffet and lamenting that you are surrounded by obese losers and trying to get them to choose a low cal option (yeah, right). The solution? Don't go.

  You aren't in denial; there is hope for you. Good luck.

  Great Teacher,

  Yes. You may. Can you think of one with a lot of ex strippers and Lindsay Lohan types?

  Go where the girls are is good advice, is it? Then tell me why none of the girls I've met at the strip clubs have turned out to be keepers.

  Fun yes. Keepers no.

  Never,

  Based on your emotional and psychological states, you would be wise to avoid anything associated with romantic relationships right now.

  Do not under any circumstances date a dub.

  As you state you still have a dub mindset about such things, which means you aren't suited to have casual, physical relationships - without wanting to bring a U-haul on the 2nd date. Or at least after you've seen her naked. Both are big mistakes. People are complicated. And when I say people I mean girls. Women are extremely complicated.

  And with many gulls, i mean girls, that isn't just lipstick on her beak when she shows up on your doorstep. It's also twigs and other nest building stuff.

  Hello. Newman. I mean Rat Again. I thought that was your rodentous oderifousness I sensed when I logged on this morning.

  What gives? You and I are starting to agree on stuff. Match is the largest dating 'site" I believe. It really isn't a bad place to start, aa Rat states, if for no other reason than to understand who is out there, what you are looking for and what you have to offer.

  Never again,

  Regarding whether you should date a dub ever again:

  Stay true to your screen name. Did you really consider doing that, or are you just funning with us?

  Otherwise take your time. Guard your heart (and other parts).

  My son just got a serious job offer

  and it looks like he will be accepting it.he will be teaching english as a second language in shenzhen, china.

  it's with a company that works with the public school system out there.his salary includes an apt (most likely shared) that has utilities and internet included, and looking at cost of living (after the rent he isn't paying) it looks like he will be able to put money aside every month.not bad for a kid his age-travel to the other side of the globe, meet new people, get paid, and get experience.

  i am going to miss him..
