  Congrats on your getting out of the family house! Like everyone else has said, concentrate on your education and visit here whenever you can. Those of us who were never allowed to even consider college possibilities are really pulling for those of you who get to go! So study hard, we wanna see that report card too! LOL

  Seeking advice on official DA

  by Bridgette in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for a very long time, i have held off on making my departure from the jw's official (though, i am as far removed from them as i can be) because of my mother.

  i did not want her to feel she must shun me when there would be no one to replace my presence in her life.

  this was for practical reasons as well as well as emotional.

  Hi Bridgette, I understand your comment about not wanting to be linked in any way to the Borg. I sent my official Kiss Off letter back in '95 and was df'd that same week. I told them I didn't want my name on any member list, etc hence the df'ing. Whatever you decide to do, make it official or not, just make sure you only do what you WANT to do, and understanding the consequences of whatever you choose. Good for you to make sure your mom is taken care of. It still blows my mind thinking about my own parents who have no retirement plan, no savings etc, and struggling. Geeez. Good luck to you in whatever you choose to do hon.

  DF and Tell? Or Not?

  by dobby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it occurred to me over the weekend that my husband and i are in a unique position.. we moved to a different state and congregation a year ago.

  we made the mistake (at the time we were still trying to be good dubs) of attending the new congregation for a couple of months and sending for our publisher cards.

  wish we would have just faded, oh well.. we have become inactive and the new congregation hasn't tried to track us down, i think because we were not there long enough to make friends, however that changed this weekend and sure enough we got a voice mail from an elder who claims we have been assigned to his book study.

  Sorry to be the one to tell ya, but it wouldn't be kept secret at all. You're on record in X amount of hall(s), and the info would be passed on. The grapevine travels fast.

  Hi Ness, welcome to the board! If I remember correctly, it's a word used in Star Wars for robots. Hmmm, or was it Star Trek? Oh well, welcome to the board anyway! LOL
