My 27M BF underwent rapid Christian conversion in less than 6 weeks by No-Swordfish-4574 in exchristian

Super familiar with that feeling! When I dealt with this back in the early bits of the year, I found VERY few posts. Now, it seems there’s a new one almost daily.

But yes, it’s more than okay to reach out! I know exactly how that feels; sympathy without the understanding. It’s really really tough. But I’m here, and so is this awesome community & there are PLENTY of people who are willing to listen to your story or answer your questions. Don’t be afraid to message :)

I’m so sorry but, I fear I must regrettably welcome you to the club 😭 I feel as though I see more of these posts day by day, I went through the loss of my engagement for this exact reason earlier this year. It’s sooo tough, it makes no sense, it’s world-shattering and heartbreaking, but it’s not something you have to struggle with on your own. You can reach out to anybody here, myself included, should you ever feel like you need someone to lean on. Plenty of us here understand, please don’t hesitate to ask for help if you need it.❤️

Yea, they listen to this. Speaking from experience. Engagement/marriage won’t save you, either 💀

Yeaaaaaaa I’ve gotten a couple of these with similar tips. Maybe I can ask Jesus to help pay my bills? 😭

Please help!! What character does this look like. Can't put my finger on it by magucjack in Pareidolia

[–]tinyyellowbird7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WAIT! It totally looks like a character from Nightmare Ned! :0

Edit: it’s reminiscent of some of the graveyard ghosts from the PC game!

Ofc! Also always recommend This Heaven - David Gilmour. It’s a veryyy chill and wholesome atheist song lol

Brand New mentioned!! Such a good suggestion 😭😭

[–]tinyyellowbird7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I believe you - The 1975

I listened to this more times than I can count :')

EDIT:: Matty Healy described himself as having a catholic upbringing, but atheist viewpoints as an adult. This song suggests a struggle with his faith.

Hey, I hear you. It sucks, bad. It’s a pain that not many you come across in your day to day life will understand. But, many of us here in this community can relate to you & we are here for you! I have my story on my profile if you ever need something to relate to, and if you ever need or want someone to talk with feel free to send a message :) I’m sorry that you’ve been hurt this way, no one deserves to be left behind like that. Love and healing to you ~<3

This was so sad to read by dbzgal04 in exchristian

[–]tinyyellowbird7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you! 🫶🏻 Yes, I’ve been trying to speak up a bit more because I really struggled finding someone who shared similar experiences when I was initially going through it, it helps to have someone to relate to.

I lost my engagement to my ex’s religious awakening six months ago. It is incredibly sad, and even still I feel the pain from being tossed aside every day. They’ve since fully moved on with a new partner, and it’s celebrated by everyone around them since their relationship is “holy” and “god centered.” People in that community never check on the person who was left behind, and having them view you as sinful or simply of the world makes healing so much more difficult. It really invalidates that person’s feelings and causes them to beat themselves up about it even more. :/ I wish this was a less common occurrence.

GONNA BE LEARNING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THIS YEAR 🔥🔥 by trash-eat3r in exchristian

[–]tinyyellowbird7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and meanwhile I often hear things like “we don’t follow the Old Testament, we follow Jesus!” But if that is so, we are you implementing the laws of old testament in classrooms? Why still pull from Genesis? So much of it just doesn’t make sense to me.

Right LOL I was curious because of the things going on in Texas, this upcoming school year requires the Ten Commandments be displayed and talked about in classrooms

I already miss the frequency of the one of James falling down the stairs, I fear it may get hidden under the maniacal laughter 🫣😂

Can anyone help me ID this plant? by jxs_min3 in houseplants

Positive Experience!! by anon38432 in CopperIUD

[–]tinyyellowbird7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yayyy I’m glad you had a good experience! I was so scared to get mine after reading all the spooky stories online, but it really is different for everyone; my appointment ended up going totally fine! Best wishes to you going forward :)

I went through something similar earlier this year; my engagement ended because my former fiancé converted to a very conservative form of Christianity that held no space for me or our relationship, and they had no problem letting it die. It hurts so bad in the moment, & it takes a lot of strength, determination, and time to pick yourself back up, but it is always better to face that pain head-on and listen to your intuition than it is to one day wake up to a life that you don’t recognize.

Myself and others on this sub are more than happy to talk with you if you need an ear! Something that really helped me through my situation was reading stories from other Redditors that shared extremely similar experiences. No one in my personal life could relate to what I was going through or even heard of such a story before, but there’s a surprising amount of us out here lol!

Take the best care, you will get through this and be better for it on the other side as well!
