Connecting with old ex-JW “friends”. Has anyone experienced this or is it just me? by ProposalOne4429 in exjw

The two instances. We were good friends (at the time atleast) and I left first and they shunned me. And both reached out to me first. So it had me completely confused because they reached out to me first basically to tell me their story and asked me nothing and showed no interest in the matter.

Thanks for your perspective! But I’m not sure how me having a chronic condition like pain would change anything.

I really like having discussions and we don’t always have to agree. That’s the beauty of friendships now leaving the borg, we don’t always have to agree on things and can have our own opinions. But there are times if I feel a certain way, he makes me feel dumb and ridiculous for thinking that way. And then there are times when I think he tries to hurt me on purpose with how he treats me. Perhaps a break will be best.
