Recently a JW friend that my Wife & I knew 3 years ago added me on Facebook, after I accepted the request she invited me to a dinner that her and her husband are holding next month.
I imagined that she was unaware of our apostasy, so I declined the invitation on the basis of not wanting to ruin Her Dinner after the rest of her Guests fled at our presence.
I'm never sure how old friends will react when I tell them that I'm no longer a JW.. Usually their response is "..... permanent-silence......"
Her response went something like this, " We are all out! Everyone that is coming is out we all look forward to seeing you guys so much" it turns out that there will be 6 people at the dinner all friends of ours from a congregation that we attended a few years back.. They have all left the Organization recently.
Pretty Crazy Experience.
