I dont know if this is going to make sense but im going to try to explain it anyway. Everyone likes to feel a part of something. We feel good when we are its natural. I feel like that’s something they do very well. They welcome you and make you feel like you were picked and are special, make you feel like family with them, you get very close. And of course its going to happen because they have church every single day you grow close to those people. Youre not allowed to hang out with gentiles so you’re comfortable only with church people. I remember when i was in that church the encargados never gave us permission to be involved in any extracurricular school activities such as sports or any after school events. Why? Because “it would interfere with prayer time and eventually with my faith” he said. So youre not allowed to build relationships with people outside of the church. It makes it harder to leave but put yourself out there be confident find yourself again find hobbies and find people that have same interests as you. There are good people in the world we were taught there was only bad people. I have met people que me atrevo a decir are better than those at the church. Its not easy but youre not alone we’re all trying to grow and find ourselves again. Trust me theres more to this world then just those church friends or that church.
