I guess I need to rephrase what I said before:
My cousin had introduced me a her cousin Greg(me)Klevgard and while she was informing them of whom my parents were" Stan and Mary" is when they pulled there hands back before touching me.
I have no Hatred to the workers or anyone in the 2x2's and have always been a outgoing one and try to lead by example.
I show love and kindness to everyone, no matter how I am treated. I guess in a way I feed on knowing how I feel inside and have done right. No I am far from perfect and I am a sinner and ask for forgiveness each day.
Again I just don't understand why some workers react differently to a situation like that.
Question? Workers that are related to my Dad don't shun him at family reunions does that make that or them workers wrong?

Cowgirl!
There are plenty of new people to meet and friends to make. Let go of your past and venture out into your future. Your new friends will like you for you, not because you profess. They will also be genuine and continue to be your friend even if you don't attend the same church or agree with all their beliefs. You will most likely experiance a new sense of freedom.
I left the Truth about 12 years ago, it took me several years to make new friends, it was painfull to be without friends. The first 2 years out of Truth were the most lonesome and confusing. The third year was the turning point, I was able to reach out and begin to trust people again. I think the trust issue was the biggest for me.
I now have many friends who I enjoy spending time with. They love me for me. It's the way life should be. Friends without conditions. Good luck on your journey. It's worth the ride!

Personalities.
I go to meetings, and a couple of my closest friends used to. We communicate often, and see each other when we can. It could be a deeper relationship if we shared meetings, but a true friend remains a true friend.
On another note, even within the fellowship there are those who are no longer friendly to me. It happens in a natural family or a spiritual family.
My advice: reach out to your old friends. Those who are 'unreachable' were not true deep friends. Enrich the friend or friends who remain, and if you'd like more, make new friends!
