one of two things will happen.
i'll get disfellowshipped and never have to worry about being "told on" again for living a normal life, or; they won't do anything.. either way, it's freeing and i feel relieved... it will be sad if i get disfellowshipped but i've come to terms and made peace with it as much as can be expected.
it's a huge weight to have off.. was told on a week ago and haven't heard anything.
cognac,
I have been reading all your posts. Your story seems very typical and stressful. I think WT has a lot to answer for all you did was go out and have some fun with the kids. You are handling it well. I suppose it is a relief to be found out then you can really be yourself.
If you get invited to a JC will you go or let them DF you without you there? They may just reprove you though.
Thanks for keeping us informed, it's healing to know we are not alone in our experiences.

hahahaha!!!! That made my day. JWs truly are seperate from the world. So funny. Kate xx
its been done for a long time.
relieved with the idea of finally being free without the fight.

If you can remain ammicable for the kids. But no divorce is ever really ammicable there are always hurt feelings. Kate xx
in gerrit losch's public statement to the superior copurt of california.

I have read this document and am grateful to read it. Losch says he does not make decisions for WT, this is a blatant lie as we know because we have read CoC, the GB vote on policies and changes are made if there is a 2/3 majority. This is evidence Losche does not believe in holy spirit as he knows this is a lie.
Thanks for exposing this

a while ago laika came to visit.
we went to town and low and behold the jw trolleys were there doing their thing.. we approached the brother and i introduced laika, the brother was polite.
i then went on to tell him that it was too difficult for me to return and be reinstated.
I guess you have made a name for yourself with the elders ?-NHAH
hahaha our circuit is very gossipy and everyone that knows me, knows I am df'd. I don't know about apostate though as I don't talk to anyone about TTATT and just stick to my personal situation. But JWStruggle, Eric, interviewed me and put my JC on youtube. LOL.....I still say I am not an apostate though lol, I am an ex JW.

cleveland cavaliers basketball player dion waiters stayed in the locker-room during the national anthem at a recent game.
asked why he responded 'i am rededicating myself to my muslim faith'.
another basketball player recently refused to stand for the anthem while on the court and was fined by the nba, dion chose to remain in the locker-room.. have you heard of followers of islam refusing to stand for the national anthem or to say the pledge of allegiance on religious grounds.. .
Interesting that this sportsman just used religion to promote his own selfish agenda and it was a publicity stunt. Some people can be so fickle. I bet he has never really been a practicing Muslim. Kate xx

As for myself and my circumstances i talk and speak with witnesses. But ignor them on official business.-NHAH
That is easier for some than others. The only times I get to speak to JWs is on the trolley, all other times they just walk straight past me as I greet them. It breaks my heart and makes me feel rotten when they do that. Kate xx

Oh, KateWild, an admitted Asperberger's Syndrome, was more than polite than I was.-Band
I just said I take a different appraoch. I welcome constructive comments from posters who recommend something different. We are all different and so are our approaches. I wasn't there and you didn't video it so I cannot comment on how polite or impolite I thought it was. Calm down Band we are on the same team.

.maybe full revovery is when you ignor the J.W trolly?-NHAH
I disagree. The shunning policy is cruel and damaging, I will never ignore JWs I take a stand to make polite conversation I will not stoop to their level. Ignoring them is complying with the shunning policy. I will never comply. If some xJWs choose to ignore JWs that is their position, but recovering from the cult does not mean ignoring JWs.
My daughter cannot speak to JWs in the street, she has not read CoC either. Her recovery is different from mine, she gets angry still. Just because she ignores JWs on the trolley it no way means she has fully recovred. I have known these people for years I will never shun them just because they are told to shun me.

most of them at the hall will be half asleep as usual.
and the letter is worded very cleverly it just barely skims and hints at what's to come with the halls being sold off.
how many in the halls will realise what it means?
I think you're right purrpurr. JWs will not realise they KHs are being sold off for lawsuits. They will put up with inconvenience as they do with assemblies. They will resign themselves to the fact that they have to put up with hardship is because it is Satan's system.
Most JWs are sleeping but thankfully some are waking up. We have a few newbies here on JWN
