Funny you should ask. So far so good. I cannot move, and am well known in my area, but so far it hasn't impacted anything. Friends and family all know I am not attending. Many don't like it, but so far nobody is treating me different. In fact, I have been able to get a couple peple thinking. All very carefully of course. The most important being my wife.
The elders aren't really interested in engaging me. They know they are probably outmatched, and my situation is well known here, along with a railroading to get me removed. I just think they are tired. So people are nice and if I happen to be around they are extra friendly. But I don't really say boo, and they don't really ask. Mind you its only been 5-6 months, so I anticipate some blowback. but thanks to advise here, they won't get anything out of me. I am maybe blessed to have fairly reasonable people in my life?
