I did alot of what's on that list regularly when i was married. It wasn't appreciated. It was a given. After a while, it became unbearable to think about him before me when tje same courtesy was not returned. Hence, that's why I WAS a wife. Divorce.

First, this is NOT a recent photo. The DC area has been hot for the past 5 dys or so.
I know one of the sisters in the pic. She lives in North Carolina but lived for a very longtime in DC. She used to be a pioneer , probably still is.
And yeah, they look pretty silly propped up in front of the White House. They don't vote... but are they making a political protest? TThat's why most ppl set up stands in that area.

Apog-- It's courtesy RESPECT to make sure that where you build does not provide a nuisance or a disturbance to your nneighbor. I don't care that this is a case with a KH involved. Any building owner should be willing to assure their neighbors and themselves that the new property will not decrease the value of their home.

There is no Santa Claus , no Easter bunny , and NO PARADISE!
by stuckinarut2 inwitnessing yesterday, i had a few little ones in the group chattering away excitedly to me about the things they look "forward to in the paradise":.
"i'm going to have three horses, a big house and lots of pretty flowers etc".
after i left, it hit me "like a ton of bricks"!......this is no different to the way that kids "in the world" believe in a santa claus, easter bunny, tooth fairy etc.... then they wake up when old enough and realise that it was all lies...make believe....stories etc, all told to them by parents and older ones!

I was with my husband for 13 years before the abuse got physical. Just bc your with a guy for a long time doesn't mean he won't give you deep.blue and purple bruises. It's real. I was hurt so bad I couldn't walk straight or extend my arm straight or stretch out my hand for over a month. I had bruises I had no idea how I got. I don't remember the assault, but some looked like I was trying to defend myself. Like i said, I was with him for 13 years. Before he touched me, he started destroying furniture around the house and giving me heavy doses of the silent treatment.
I echo everyone else's concerns here-- being married to a former jw who decides to return is ... hell! The psychological and emotional abuse sustained at home and from the meetings takes its toll after some time. I really couldn't stand it any longer and had to leave. He refused to go to counseling to fix the marriage, and I refused to take the abuse any longer. My youngest misses her dad very much, but she won't be brought up as a jw, thank God.

CoCo... that's exactly how I felt when my ex husband and I started our freefall to the end of our marriage. No amount of love npr reason worked to motivate that man to forgive me , himself and move our marriage forward. I've since moved on, but now my baby girl is feeling the hurt and pain in your poem.
If it's a child of yours that's hurting you in this way, idk if I could move on. I would be eternally destroyed.
I hope you find peace soon.

Listen, Obey and
by berrygerry ini'm extremely neutral in our house, so it's not my influence - honest!.
my 11-year old is light-years advanced with his intelligence and humour.. he's going around the house singing "listen, obey, and be castrated.".
was not impressed.. pretty hard to contain my laughter..

That's pretty awesome! I love how kids are so quick to c thru the bs garbage fed to them at the meetings! My oldwst stayed quiet out of respect for her parents, but with ne being both physically and mentally out she is tearing jw reasoning apart! Kudos to.your son. You may not be saying anything to him directly, but your example is clearly rubbing off on him.

Things to understand about talking to a Jehovah's Witness...
by drew sagan inplease note that everything i write here is within the context of discussions between two witnesses.
conversations between a jw and non jw are different in a number of ways and so i will not be discussing them here.
the 'running ahead' fallacy.
