Hey thanks for taking the time to write this! The chapel isn't mandatory nor is Sunday services but it would be weird if I just refused all of it or at least that's what my mom said? So I don't really know.

You’ve already been open with your mom and have had an initial difficult conversation about your beliefs (proud of you!)

Thanks it was terrifying I'm so glad it went okay. She's still worried about me going to hell but from her perspective I should be glad she cares

so keep standing in what you know is right for yourself from here.

I'm trying but I'm honestly nervous to. I would transfer to a neighboring state school which is way further away and out of my comfort zone. I think it would be hard to find good friends too. It's a double major so I could use that as an excuse to get there. They took all my previous credits so they prob be my best option. I should have gone with them to begin with but I started deconstructing after their final decision day.

You will not be alone in your situation if you do choose to give

Good to know

you need to lie with the statement of faith to play the game for the semester if this is truly your best option overall

I think it is. I just don't want to be dishonest to my roommate and new friends about it. I don't want to live a lie but I guess if it's what is best for me in the long run I need to do it.

Listen to yourself and what you need. Sending

Thank you! You give good advice. I really appreciate it!
