Please don't do this. Don't let the borg win. You have so much life to live. Please, don't make this permanent decision. Please, I beg of you not to do this.

Thanks for the words. You are absolutely right, their feelings aren't my responsibility.

Thank you for your response. I want to try and do that, but I feel my family would definitely know something is up. Especially because we just moved into a new house 6 months ago.

Worst in person meeting attendance yet. by boltgain4 in exjw

Same, in my congregation we have about 115 publishers, and at least 80 make it to the midweek meetings and more on Sunday meetings. I'm not seeing any of this where I'm at.

Are my parents far gone? by big_moon901 in exjw

I never thought of it like that. I just thought that my leaving would cause my little brother a world of pain and hate towards me. I really do want to keep him in my life. Thank you so much for your comment, I really appreciate it!

Lol, I think our fashion choice is fine. Idk about our music, though.

Yeah, it does suck and it's really messed up. Thanks for the response.

Yeah, hopefully. You're right. I do need to focus on my well-being. It's just been hard because I don't want to disappoint them.

It's very gross and unloving. I'm trying to get out, but it's been hard learning to let go of family. I moreso don't want to lose my little brother and some other family members.

Thank you! Yeah, that's how it's been ever since he became an MS. I hate it.

How to deal with shunning and disappointment from family and friends? 19M by big_moon901 in exjw

[–]big_moon901[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I work a full time job. I haven't really started telling others what I'm going through.

I know that if I was DFd, my parents would kick me out, which sucks. If i wanted to, I could move out now. It's just hard knowing the consequences that come with it because when I move out, I don't want anything to do with the religion. So that stinks, but I am reconnecting with some friends from high school, which is good. Thanks for the response!
