I could also clap without making noise. Unless we were at the assembly then I would try to be the last one still clapping.

No more hand claps, please
by coolhandluke inat conventions especially, hand clapping annoyed me to no end.
the first day i was excited and really in the business of clapping and silently condemning those around me who didn't do so.
i even condemned those who i thought did not clap enthusiastically enough for my tastes.

As a kid I used to just mouth amen while saying a different word in my head.

I'm glad that I never had children while still married to my ex. I don't think I would have been able to leave.

Will you be reaching out for a position of greater responsibility in the congregation now?? Will you be having the Bookstudy at your house Saturday mornings, followed by Field Service?? Maybe you can become a CO and really kick ass in the congreation now!!
Do it!!!
I will faithfully attend all meetings and will even consider re-instatement so you can be praised as showing an apostate "the evil of their ways"

My marriage didn't work out for numerous reasons. The biggest one was we didn't really know each other. We were together since we were 17 and split up when I was 26. We both changed a lot during that time period. I woke up one day and realized that while I loved him I didn't like him very much. Who he was at 17 was the complete opposite of who he was at 26. Or maybe my blinders where off
My relationship now I know exactly who he is, I don't think he really knows me however.
I think as long as you are open with each other and address issues as they come up that you will be fine.

That is so moving, Dom. I've got tears in my eyes. Hold on to this part:
I'm just trying for a moment to get you to look past my "state" and see me as the person that you have trusted your entire lives. I'm still me. I'm still Dominick.
That is who they will remember and love. Be true to yourself and good things will follow for you.
Please keep me updated on how it goes. I know this is all still fresh and raw, I'm hear to listen and help when I came. I remember what it was like.
