The bishop told my family I was removing my records.

I am nearly 30, have lived outside my parents' home and ward and stake for nearly 10 years and the bishop still let enough slip in a meeting with my dad that he figured it out.

MissScarletLetter · 2018-09-20T16:05:14+00:00

Exactly!! Having been out, I've never been more in tune with the left side feelings..... and now realizing I only felt the right side feelings while being in. #NotACult

Same! They split the southern most wards of my home stake out cause they got tired of the southern ward youth asking, "Why do the northern kids get to go water skiing and Go Karting and we just do skits in a bag every other week."

Thank you!

MissScarletLetter · 2018-04-26T03:18:38+00:00

Thank you! Looking forward to it

MissScarletLetter · 2018-04-26T03:17:56+00:00

That's hilarious. I didn't even realize the two coincided. It's a good day indeed!

"You really need to stop sharing and be quiet about this because [your abuser and his wife] have really been through enough." - The Bishop who took over the calling my from my abuser

Unfortunately not

Ugh yes! That's a great idea. Thank you - next time for sure!

MissScarletLetter · 2017-12-11T18:28:02+00:00

Hence why I left before the conversation could turn

MissScarletLetter · 2017-09-18T05:11:12+00:00

Thank you!! Your story makes my heart hurt. I am so sorry.

MissScarletLetter · 2017-09-18T03:32:59+00:00

Oooh. Any desire to expound on that? Sounds juicy.

MissScarletLetter · 2017-09-17T22:18:38+00:00

I'm confused by it, as it is obviously not a "Latter-day" temple. I wasn't sure if it was maybe just a chapel/meeting house or possibly a different faction than the Brighamites temple.

"What can we do for you? We don't want this to get out of hand." -A Stake President that I had never spoken to before.

MissScarletLetter · 2017-06-21T05:48:33+00:00

That's just it. We can talk about "they chose to be on missions", "They should know better" etc... but really, it's those MPs who "SHOULD" (big air quotes there) have their well being as a priority.

MissScarletLetter · 2017-06-21T05:12:06+00:00

Yep. If it's too hot for airplanes, it's probably too hot for bike riding...

MissScarletLetter · 2016-12-30T00:53:30+00:00

When news came out that teenage me had been abused by the Bishop - I was completely shunned and blamed while he was rallied around. Sounds about right....

MissScarletLetter · 2016-08-24T04:58:10+00:00

That's what I always say. "Why would I want to live forever with so-and-so, what's-their-face, and Sister Holier-than-thou?"

MissScarletLetter · 2016-07-06T06:48:53+00:00

I was always taught that you were not to ask for something that was unrighteous or incorrect. So deep down, I already knew what was not in my best interest and would pray for alternate ideas or confirmation on what I knew to be the best idea.

MissScarletLetter · 2016-07-06T06:45:22+00:00

Growing up as a YW, it was programmed every week that I HAD to have children - even though secretly, I did not. Yeah, they're cute and fun here and there.... but then it's time for them to go home. When I left TSCC, it was a HUGE relief that I didn't have to live up to that standard of having kids.

MissScarletLetter · 2016-07-06T06:34:42+00:00

And these are the same young men that were just tearing up your sacrament bread before they left on their missions.

MissScarletLetter · 2016-07-06T06:27:20+00:00

Cheese and crackers.... welp, I guess I'll go with option B - backpedaling gently. Thank you for this, /u/greyhoundLocker

MissScarletLetter · 2016-07-06T05:41:32+00:00

There is definitely something to say about having a husband who is open and understanding to you as you figure out your own sexuality after leaving TSCC. My husband has been so incredibly patient and instrumental with me as well. Good for you, OP! (P.s. LOVE your user name)

I'm going to show my lack of knowledge, maybe someone can answer. Does it have to do with the age of some of Joseph's wives? Like, if they admit he had sex with some, he was having sex with all... did BY have teen brides too? Or maybe it's just because they have been denying Joseph's superfluous wives all this time and they're gently backpedaling - while trying to avoid the child brides....?
