  hi guys,.

  i might go to the meeting.

  i stopped going in my heart properly in nov 2013, but i went to a couple of meetings to support a love one that was df'd and tried to teach them a little ttatt.. now another df'd loved one is coming to see me today and will likely encourage me to try and get ri'd, and i want to support her.

  Thanks Joe,

  I understand what you say. Logic agrees emotions acts differently. It's the love bombing that draws me back everytime. They do love me, they are just trapped

  We went for a meal last night, and she asked me lots of spiritual questions then she said "I am worried you're rubbing off on me instead of me rubbing off on you"

  So a little of what I am saying is getting through. We have established I am not going to meetings aswell.

  Thanks guys.

  I AM NOT GOING TO MEETINGS

  But I might get weak again in the future

  Laika- Yes you're right. That is what I felt when everyone was greeting me and smiling. They all had hopes that I was coming back and I feel bad because I don't want to intentionally mislead any of my loved ones.

  If you go back with your friend, make sure they know that you're going for them and that you do not support anything related to JWs. Otherwise, as others have stated, they may take your presence as your endorsement of JW things. - Tim

  I did as you advised and she told me I was going for the wrong reasons. But she knew the truth.

  Fink, Searcher, - I get what your both saying and thanks for keeping me out. I Think once we are out we still need support to make sure we don't go back.

  tiki - yes you're right I should have stayed away thanks for the support.

  flipper - good research, but all that I heard just reinforced my negative feeling about WT, love bombing is my weakness.

  Thanks guys for all the support I really needed it.

  My loved one came round for a meal before the meeting and we caught up and chatted a lot. She asked questions that showed she had a genuine interest. I told her I had been dating for the past year and that if I go back to the KH and get RI'd, I would not qualify to date or remarry as my husband divorced me on unscriptural grounds. The guy I have been dating this week is really nice and he contacted me while my friend was there. She said he was a puppet of Satan.

  This made me laugh as it's exactly what I would have said to her as a youngster (she is the same age as my daughter). So she is feeding me nonsense that I taught her.

  She was very emotional though and sincerely thought I was going to die at Armageddon, I did tell her that I had given Jehovah my best and he would save me if he really exists, as all he wants is our best. But she really wanted me to come with her, and told me all the harsh elders had left and now they were all just, kind elders. I could see the fear and love in her eyes. She was emotionally blackmailing me and I knew it but I loved her anyway and care about her. So I caved and went to the meeting even though I knew it was a bad idea.

  All the brothers and sisters that saw me acknowledged me and winked or smiled. It felt nice but I knew it wasn't right. This was also a different hall from my KH that i got DF'd from. So no matter how nice they were my old JC that I recorded, would have to RI me and they are never going to do that, but I don't want to anyway.

  The meeting was nonsense and I was really just criticising everything. Then after the song and the service meeting started I got a phone call from the guy I was dating, he wanted a chat to get to know me better. I ran outside to answer the phone and told him I was busy and would call him back when I was free. He said "ok no problem enjoy yourself"

  So I am sitting in the KH, listening to propaganda and nonsense, clock watching until I can talk to this wonderful guy I have met. I thought it was ludicrous!!!!!! he said enjoy myself!!!!!

  So I walked out and left, called him and had a nice chat. I wasn't going to let WT take my time and my life.

  The majority of advice was good telling me not to go, but my heart strings couldn't resist the pull of love bombing. I love them all, but know I can't have them back.

  Thank you for all the responses since i last checked in I will answer you all now

  My introduction and confession

  well another big bad elder here just wanting to say sorry.. i'm sorry that so many were treated like crap, and shown that god's love is not to be found around jehovah's witnesses.

  i'm sorry that inadvertently i've likely taught many to judge and as such see that racism permeates every corner of the jw world, else why else would someone be of the world, or even inactive.

  i'm sorry i sat in on a jc, and voted to df.

  To me, the reality is that there is no such thing as a successful escape, its just playing for the tie, or to minimize the loss.-elderNewton

  Sadly I agree, but at least if you exit your way, you did not submit to WT rules

  I say stick to your guns and your own hard won principles and standards, if you can, stay away.- Slidin Fast

  Yes that seems the consensus of the thread so far
