As a saying goes, "Promise them everything and give them nothing!" Yes women like suspense and intrigue.

I need advice quick...and a hug.
by dmouse ini'm in a bit of a state at the moment, my wife has just left me about 30 mins ago and took the kids...i don't know where.... ok, some of you long-timers may remember the problems i had with my son ben, who decided that the jw religion wasn't for him about a year ago.
i supported him as best i could through that and he's developed into a fine young man with a more healthy spiritual attitude, investigationg a number of christian churches in the area and finally settled on church of england, which he really likes now.. although no longer a christian myself i have no objection to them pursuing whatever religious path they choose (obviously within reason).
that has been the case with all of my children: ben, 15, charlotte, 14 and chloe, 12. i have never attempted to stop my wife taking them to the meetings although i have voiced to them privately my concerns about the religion.

Ever get the feeling your just not "normal"?
by logansrun ineven when i was a dub i felt this way.
i mean, i would just stand there at gatherings and feel that i was in my own world -- that, somehow, everyone else was "in" and i was "out.
" i never felt this way at formal gatherings -- meetings, assemblies, etc -- only in most social settings.

L'sRun, my wife has been telling me for the past 41 years that I'm not normal. Yes, what is normal? I'm a strong believer in minding my own busines, I have and will always help others with no strings attached and I will not purposely injure others. My ways of doing things is not conventional, that is, not normal. Nothing like individuality or being your own person.

Incompatibility
by JH inin chemistry, certain chemicals react violently to other ingredients and should never be put together.
if we make a comparison with our everyday lives, do you think that certain people are incompatible with others, and that no matter what they do, they will never be friends?
have you ever experienced being incompatible to someone?

Guest 77
If you have intentions of ruining my day, expect the unexpected! I've come to negotiate with plenty of incompatible persons. Nothing like expecting the unexpected beauty of human imperfection. Some people are just beauts.

Rebels and Red Coats - Native Americans & Blacks in the American Revolution
by Simon inthis topic is largely in response to the topic:.
in one post, i said:one possible reason that both native americans and blacks (then slaves) were treated so badly for so long is that both largely sided with the british in the war of independence.
i guess countries have some kind of giant collective consciousness that takes a while to change.. .

Simon, could you fill me in on 'why' the Indians played on one European power against the other when they were the landowners? Are you sure it wasn't the Europeans playing against the Indians to steal their land?
