I'm designing this logo below in Illustrator CC. Every time I increase the stroke the part highlighted below goes out position. So I thought I need to join the paths. Would this be the correct thing to do? I have tried to do this using join (ctrl+J) but it isn't working can someone please help?

Thank you. I can show more examples.

The problem is in the stroke align. Can you check it and tell us what this option is ?!

Select your line/lines and check it:

If it isn't set to align to center for all lines, this problem happens.
Also you may need to use the Scissors Tool to cut the closed paths. So let us see first!
