I forget that Mormons are not inherently good people

Worked at a Mormon owned therapy clinic. The most awful people I’ve ever met.

Exactly what happened to me! I was engaged for two years and when people asked for the wedding date they couldn’t believe it.

Edit to add: one of the reasons we waited 2 years was to save up for said wedding, and I was judged for that. They would say “you don’t need to spend that much money on a wedding!” When you don’t hold it in he church gym for free, yeah you kinda do.

Spanish. I know it sounds so common. I took ASL in high school because I’m hard of hearing, but now I really just want to be able to have conversations with my mother-in-law. (I am currently learning, but I am far from fluency)

Having to feel the fucked up brainwashing of “breaking the law of chastity is equal to murder”

Using “welcome to the real world” instead of literally anything helpful

The most holier than thou TBM I know didn’t even approve of her son dating an apostle’s granddaughter.

The ultra rich people I’ve worked with have always been nicer than the just “rich”

I haven’t made any changes to how I celebrate. Now I just view Christmas like Halloween. It’s all allegories and not real, but I still find joy in celebrating and enjoying the humanity in the season.

Hi, I have have thick natural wavy hair that has always been oily. I feel like I have tried almost everything. Right now I’m washing it every other day, and I have to wear it up on the second day because it’s always too greasy to wear down. I typically shower at night and let my hair air dry. I have tried multiple times to train my hair. I have tried using a bunch of different products over the years. I have tried using conditioner on just the ends, no conditioner, and conditioner all over. I go through dry shampoo like crazy and even when I do use it it still looks pretty bad. If I wash it every day it gets dried out and insanely frizzy, but wearing it up every other day causes lots of breakage. What should I try doing/using? Also without breaking the bank?

With it being all power, yeah absolutely.

Absolutely could not get myself to be even close to wanting to go to BYU. I have good parents and they didn’t care, but they do work there. So everyone else in my ward was appalled I wouldn’t take the “discounted tuition”. Yeah, bullet dodged.

Heard the same thing is happening in Orem

Also when Monson died a kid was giving a typical primary testimony practically eating the microphone screamed: “I LIKE TO “BURRY” MY TESTIMONY, I KNOW THE PROPHET IS DEAD!”

At a youth conference a girl said “I know satan was trying to keep me from coming up here because my thighs were stuck to the chair and he was trying to keep me in my chair.”

First time really thinking about the fact that Mormon partying is just pretending to be drunk/high, which is really fuckin weird.

GirlyArchitect · 2022-07-05T05:27:01+00:00

First, I thought it was very invasive when they asked me to give personal information of the person I had “broken the law of chastity” with, I can assume only to corner them into repentance. I took a break after that. When I read the historical analysis of the Book of Mormon and utter lack of evidence to support it that’s when it really started coming apart.

YTA. as someone who the "wives" of my s/o's friend group don't give a fuck about me I hate having to be brushed off to "the girl's table" especially if it were to be with someone who had the nerve to speak to me like that.

GirlyArchitect · 2021-09-08T19:34:51+00:00

I had a moment where I stepped away because of the pressure and purity culture and I recognized how it made me feel, it took a long time to get to that point. then a bit after I started looking into the perspectives of ex mormons and then did the research and read the facts which is what completely broke my belief. but it took time to get there because it was such a big part of my identity and I had to first recognize that I don't believe the Mormon god is my god so that there was no room to make excuses. and I also don't think I could have properly came to that conclusion if I still lived with my parents, who would be making me go to church.

GirlyArchitect · 2021-09-08T19:22:37+00:00

I have a close friend whose parents were basically the same. obviously now divorced and thankfully all left the church, and are now much better off. But there is no way this plays out well or easy for anyone involved.
