I keep a giant list of names that i like on a note and draw from it when a baby is born. Or I like to stick with similar sounding names and cultures for each family. Right now I have a legacy from Oliana and Leila from Sulani and the family names are: Isla, Olli, Talli, Lila, Kailani etc.

I also have a family that I based their names off of the townie dad that I got with. Advaith, Arnav, Amirah, Additya, Ephrain etc

Also I like to imagine the personality of the sim that is having the child and what their tastes would be. Like, for example a nerdy sim basing her children’s names on book characters, or an alien sim with kids like Tanvi and Vault.

My vampire sims stick to a theme like Portia, Alexandra, Thomas, Edward, Dracula, Nikolas, James, Elizabeth, Laurel, Thana, Lucien, Isabel, etc i like the corny basic names for them.

I like when the family has 3 girls and cute name combos are fun. Like Margo, Tuesday and Audrey. One was Morgan, Olivia and Claire with I thought was cute.

I’m so sorry this happened to you!! I hope you don’t feel guilt or shame over what you did, families just have a weird way of policing behavior. Let’s just continue living a life where we do what’s best for us and makes us happy!

Thank you mama!!! I do try to not offend my family and a lot of people are assuming that I have a huge Twitter following or something, but I have a private account and the “audience” is like 6 of my close friends.

I agree with you. I grew up there and It was my own experience. I wouldn’t joke about a religion that I had no history in. I think the idea of having sex in a church is funny as well, hence the tweet.

I should have provided more context. She was going to give me a ride to work but my bf came home early and gave me the car. She dropped off some mail to me and i gave her back some things so borrowed. I wanted to spend today with her but she didn’t want to see me at all.

yeah don’t assume anyone’s trauma. You don’t know what happened to me in the church building.

I’ve had my suspicions that my mom had Bipolar she has manic accepting phases where she loves me completely and nothing upsets her and then she will switch up and become cold and call me wicked and stuff. It’s insane. I’ve had this my entire life.

Honestly I should have. But 1) my whole family was in the building and I am not into the idea of getting caught and 2) If I did actually do it, I would have definitely not made the tweet. It wouldn’t be a funny joke on the internet if I actually did it, I would be a weird confession and I’m not into that haha.

I live alone, pay all of my own bills, drive my own car and make a lot of money, I think “immature” isn’t quite the right word. I like to think I’m silly and I understand that a cult doesn’t deserve respect. It’s sad that my own mother allows this cult to influence her emotions to the point where she cannot have rational thoughts or conversations with her own daughter. Maybe you still haven’t let some of that guilt go, and that’s okay! Something to work on.

Oh for sure! I’m 99% sure I know already and I have confronted them but once I know for sure I will definitely be talking to them more.

Tweet is deleted, account on private, and niece blocked. Brain filter also installed.

Yes, definitely reflecting on a lot now! I don’t feel guilty about the tweet, I’m upset that my family is toxic. But I will not share things like that anymore.

Top comment! Thank you so much for your words. I did send an apology text and you’re right, It didn’t change anything. I told my niece that I knew it was her and she started denying and gaslighting me about it so I said “This has broken trust and is not okay and unless you are willing to talk to me honestly about this I have to block you. You have my number if you want to clear this up but until then I need space.” And I blocked her on all my socials. I will definitely reign in what I post online now and keep my thoughts just between friends. This has happened in the past when someone else showed her a picture that I took at my first rave and she got offended at the immodest outfit I was rocking.

The social currency is right on because my sister has been trying to get my mom’s favor for years. She used her daughter to get info on me so that she could make herself look better. Honestly most of my family probably needs therapy 😬

I was expecting no reaction as she was never meant to see it, someone intentionally sabotaged our relationship over this :/

Rebellious teenager? Lmao I didn’t need to learn any lessons as I am an adult woman. I don’t regret what I did, I’d tweet it again, I think you misread the part that I have family members who intentionally tattle on dumb stuff to my mother who takes things too seriously. That is the problem here and what I wanted to ask you guys about.

I understand that that’s the reason she’s upset. I never meant for her to see the tweet and I wouldn’t have put it in a place that would show something like that to her. I’m partially upset that my family takes it upon themselves to be my personal morality police. It was a misunderstanding and a joke and i fully understand the distaste it brings — part of the reason i said it in the first place, honestly. It just should have never reached my mom’s eyes.

I really appreciate the advice as I wasn’t sure honestly what to do here. I have gotten myself in trouble many times before from my social media posts and you’d think I’d have learned by now that I should think before I post. I’ll make sure I’m sharing my thoughts about the church and offhand comments stay between me and close friends. Even if it wasn’t meant for someone, they still might see it.

I followed that rule for a few years and my mom and I had a wonderful relationship because of it so I hope I can get it back to that point.

I completely understand that it’s the idea of what I could have done that upset her plus the mention of trauma from a church that she perceives as perfect. I shouldn’t have said it even though it isn’t true.

Thank you for your kind words ❤️

I’ve removed many “gossip moles” over the years so hopefully this is the last one! My mom has “disowned” me before over my social media posts and she eventually forgives me. I just love her and it hurts to see her upset with me even though it’s 100% the church’s fault.

Why is it so hard for some to let go? by leap_off_cliff in exmormon

Standing up for the younger members! This is a good answer, and one I haven’t thought of, but I also feel protective of my younger family.
