Non-Redneck Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I just left. They really didn't bother me. I had one person call me really concerned, but he never pressed the issue beyond that. I occasionally saw some of them, but since I was in a large college at the time, the odds of that happening were small. When it did, they weren't happy to see me. After college, I moved to a different city. So all that garbage was left behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaisedPB Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 We slowly stopped attending, then stopped altogether. My father is a leader in the church we were attending. He asked what was going on, so I told him we were looking at other churches. A couple of friends of my wife asked her about it. I have not heard from another single person there, and it is a church I have attended since I was 16. I was a deacon there for a time, and taught sunday school and served as an usher. I still didn't hear from anyone. I guess they just dumped it all on my father. I thought some of those people were friends. I guess not. Lots of talk, not much action. To Just1Me, the reason for not wanting a meeting with the leaders is that it would just be a time for one last attempt at emotional manipulation and guilt trips. I've been in it for 30+ years. I've heard it all, I've read it all; hell, I taught it all. After much searching and reading (years worth) I decided I don't believe it any more. One more pep talk or guilt trip is not going to change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
