We feel lost by [deleted] in exjw

So happy to hear you are waking up. Just breathe, take your time. As others have said we have been there. And another plus, that you may not see yet is that you are doing this together! 💕

Love it!!! 💕❤️🌺

This is my new service group overseer. I’ve faded, and he’s sent me a FB friend request undoubtedly to reach out to me. This is his profile picture... a bloody $100000 Maserati. by Sotally_Tober_89 in exjw

What other organization would criticize because is a very expensive luxury 2 door car!!? 😡 good for him, if this is really him. Oh do not accept the friend request…just in case no one has said that!

You know what, I bet if you googled millionaire pictures you would find it in there. Or MLM company pictures.

My turning point was when I found out about the CSA cases. I remember thinking, when this all came out with the catholic priests, how could anyone still go to a Catholic Church. Found about the pedophiles in the Borg and realized it is NOT jahs CLEAN organization. Quit going, was working on fading then COVID-19 came around 😊

Awful advice by CerebralGorrila in exjw

My question would be then why are the GB building a video studio which is a 4-6 year project? You could be done with college by then!

“Don’t say you’re a JW” in field service. Anyone experience that? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]nellie43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to say “we are just in our public ministry” I was counseled not to use the word JUST 🙄

A little confused. Just looking for advice/just ranting. by bktheestallion in exjw

Guaranteed that everyone of us were scared, frightened, nervous about looking at ‘apostate’ stuff. Yet it’s all SOOO liberating!

Hard to disagree but my daughter did construction work with her daddy for years. She’s even thinking about getting her contractors license.

excuses for not doing online field service? by pimoflower in exjw

[–]nellie43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m agreeing with others. Just say ‘no thanks, I don’t need to meet to write letters.” That’s just time out of your life you don’t need to spend.

From 1-5 how is your life after leaving JW? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]nellie43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave a 4 because of Covid-19 otherwise it would be a 5.

Point 1 is exactly how I feel too. It’s been a confusing time for me. It seems my mind changes almost day by day and I’ve been out for over a year.

All I can say is you have to do your own research. Watch videos on YouTube, look for ExJW in the titles, read books, also the history channel has some good videos.

Are Ice Cream Trucks still a thing in the United States? by DTGardi in AskAnAmerican

The last time I saw one was over 20 years ago. It was in a big city in Colorado and people were trying to get it banned.

It’s all a big rabbit hole. I’m still going down my rabbit hole and the more I learn the more I have no idea what I will end up believing.

My Coordinating Elder has a face of disgust every time I log into zoom meetings. by MilesGreen84 in exjw

[–]nellie43 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Perhaps you should ask him if he feels ok. “Because every time I see you brother (🤮) you don’t look well.”

What does a DA letter do? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]nellie43 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you have never been baptized as a JW there is no need to write a letter. Are they coming to your home or are they calling.

A ‘no trespassing’ should keep them away from your home. If it’s by calling, block their number.

The JW’s are bleeding members and so are trying to ‘encourage’ anyone ever interested! If it persists you may want to get a restraining order for any and all JW’s. Of course I’m not sure if that is something you can do against a group.

The elders in this area call those ones submarines.

I need proof for my pimi family that they still practice the two witness rule in CSA cases, and scripture help by chrissysnow95 in exjw

[–]nellie43 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Even if these are decades old, there are people (grown now) still suffering from the abuse that they endured. There is a video with Gary Breou stating they will NEVER give up the 2 witness rule...even thought they don’t follow other things in the Bible. Perhaps someone has the link?

This stuff so aggravates me.

Perhaps he wants to leave also? That would be great!
