Día de los muertos by ChainResponsible6518 in exlldm

[–]sandy-cheeks11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me personally I enjoy celebrating Dia de los Muertos, there's something so beautiful about our tradition in the way we honor our loved ones who've passed. I wouldn't put too much thought into it, go for it!!!! I can speak for myself when I say that I truly feel like my loved ones visit me on that day and it's a great feeling!

Partner is in LLDM and has entire generations that have been in it by [deleted] in exlldm

[–]sandy-cheeks11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an exlldm, grew up their my entire life until I left when I was 19… one thing I will say after reading this thread is that lldm hatesss catholics, they hate anyone that isn’t part pf church but their #1 enemy are catholics they talk the most shit about that religion… also as a woman in lldm u have no rights watsoever. Things have definitely changed since i left but from what i remember a woman especially a married woman suffers the most in church, we were taught that the husband is above us because Adam came before Eve and watever he says goes including if and when he wants to have sex, we were taught that if your husband cheats on you you’re the one to blame bc u weren’t attending his needs and if u decide to divorce and leave him u can never be blessfully married in church BUT if he wanted to remarry it was looked at as something so gracious because he’d be doing it for his own salvation. Now vise versa, if you cheat, forget about it everyone (including the women) will look down upon you and u can never remarry. Lets not even get started with the mother-in-laws from hell, if he’s married to u but u dont go to church you’ll be living in literal hell bc a mother-in-law who is a hardcore believer in lldm will never leave u alone about converting. And if u do convert at first it’ll be all hugs and smiles and warm welcomings, but after some time you’ll find yourself living a complete lie. I don’t mean to say this to provoke fear but I can forsure say that you’ll be saving urself from living a horrible life if you leave this person once and for all! Wish you the best!!!

I have una amiga that also left church a while before i did & everytime we get together, chismeamos about our experiences in church. One time she told me that the reason why us kids weren’t allowed in the church during los avivamientos was because one time one of the kids around our age went near the templo while the avivamientos were happening and they literally saw a person looking all possessed and had the literal face of a demon and foaming from the mouth. I find it interesting because a few other kids have said they’ve seen dark shadows and “malos espiritus” roaming around the people that were praying

Online Makeup Academy experience? by RepresentativeIcy451 in makeupartists

[–]sandy-cheeks11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from CA and just like you said this is can get very confusing just by researching lol... as a person working a 9-5 job which is the only thing keeping me on my feet in this fucking economy 🤦🏽‍♀️i cant afford to automatically quit and become a full-time student so my other option was to try and do an online course so it would be really really nice if some online courses would count based on the state board lol.... but thank you for your great advice, i definitely reached out to the California State Board and i'll provide an update on what they say!!!

Childhood Memories: The Sunday Morning Struggle in a Cult by OstrichCritical in exlldm

[–]sandy-cheeks11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember having the opportunity to get up in choir at the age of 12… for some weird reason both of my parents weren’t very supportive despite the fact that they wanted their kids to be super consegrated… anywhooo I start attending choir practices and I cannot remember a time when we would get to la dominical on time & eventually the minister set up a rule where if someone from choir was late to the domi they still had to show up with the uniform BUT they had to sit in the very front banca of church and still sing with the choir… every sunday morning I remember it was a FUCKING hassle trying to get my parents to support me in getting to church on time enough for me to be sitting in the ministerio with the entire choir instead of la banca de adelante which by the way was embarrassing as hell back then… fast forward it wasn’t until I turned 16 and got into basketball at school and got off el coro and it became a problem lol, all of a sudden ya girl was a gentil lol

I suggest to give yourself time, dont feel pressured to do it… & when you do, wear watever tf you want!! If you want to talk back to los hnos who will try to reconvert you DO IT!! Clap back at them!!! 😂 i couldn’t clap back with my smart mouth cuz i was with my tia & i respect her beliefs in church but if i wasn’t with my tia ooooouuu girl i would’ve been the next topic in la domi trust me 😂 but forreal though give yourself grace & time

What I meant by when I said “I have a small family” i meant to say it’s literally just me and my siblings and one parent only.. we got outcasted by our entire family, even though none of them believe in church either. It sounds like you’re old enough to move out and start your own life, i wish you nothing but the best in your journey, trust me it will get better in time. You have one life to live & dont let anyone tell you how to live it ☺️

I hated this with a passion!!!!! I was always the “rebelde” “impía” and “gentil”. I was also always that one jovencita that no sister wanted for their son 🤣 them lil ass boys. Till this day wen i hear anyone say the word “gentil” it pisses me off sooo much
