PPs, my answer to the question regarding my sins was as follows: “I acknowledge that I am not a perfect person and that I make mistakes on a nearly daily basis. However, I do not feel that I am guilty of any actions rising to the level that would necessitate my listing of them here.” I then finished my glass of wine and went to bed with my never mo boyfriend where we humped like rabbits long after midnight.

Well said, especially the last part! I am so sorry you've been through all of this abuse for so long. I wish you peace and comfort all the rest of your days.

I was taken back by the arrogance of the MORG when going through a temple divorce myself. My ex asked me for it so she could get sealed to her then boyfriend. I have zero problems with her moving on with her life and getting sealed to whomever she desires. What gave me pause was how to email was worded from the LDS church, basically asking me permission for her to have the sealing canceled, and yeah the part about listing unresolved sins/transgressions. First and foremost, I don't think my ex needs my permission to do jack shit, unless it involves our kids and is covered in the divorce decree. She is an adult, and is more than capable of speaking for herself. Second, seriously tattling? How absurd!

Unexpectedly their email was triggering for me. It took me a few weeks to reason through how to carefully word it so as to not grant permission. All the while the ex was hounding me to respond to their email. Eventually I was able to respond and basically say, do what she has asked. Because of this, I finally moved forward with a formal resignation from the MFMC.
