Oh and fyi... it's not a pity party so i don't need a lot of reassuring comments.

Apostasy
Ever considered it? Not complete apostasy but just not going to your ward anymore? I have always been strong in the gospel but recent events have led me to reconsider my thoughts on attending all of church. I would never stop going to church just Relief Society. It's becoming more and more tempting especially when it's not really a sisterhood anymore. Man do I ever wish for my old calling... oh and friends that actually treat you like a real friend. At least I have a few that are always there....

Sad to hear! We would miss you in Relief Society! But I can totally relate; I have had those times when it is truly a struggle to get up the desire to stay the entire time.
I totally understand! I had that problem for a LONG time in this ward, but then I found the back row. I now am totally excited for RS. You should come join us back there.
Hey I'll let you come back to primary! You want to teach Paige's class next week while we are out of town? Ha ha!! I know you didn't want any pity :)but I think you are such a fabulous girl and I wish I had your personality and boldness. You are one amazing woman and I would be sad if I didn't see you every Sunday! I mean that! No pity in those statements!
I felt that same way three wards ago. In fact I did stop going to Fast sunday sacrament meeting because of some issues. People move out and new people move in and attitudes shift. It sure makes it suck in-between times though. Want to come Team teach with me? ;)
UMMMMM...I TOTALLY understand.LOL...I actually am so close to just quit going to the entire 3 hours. I hate the drama and everyone talking about my party and certain people NOT standing up for me. Which,by the way,I called Salt Lake City and I talk to someone high upp on the food cahin and was told that there was NEVER anything said about not being able to have these parties. SO GAY. Our ward has way too many self righteous people in it. Funny cuz when I was going to bars and hanging out with non-members I had WAY better friends then I do now. Strange how that happens. It really shouldnt work out that way either...I am done talking cuz I am raging at this comment box. Come sit with jessica and I on the back though RS is dealable when you have REAL friends to sit by :) but I also dont want you to sit too close cuz then people will look down on you for sitting by the party girl...lol
Repent immediately! Go sit on the front row of Relief Society and participate in the lessons. ;) Fortunately or unfortunately, things are what we make of them. Or just move to UT.
Julie the best part of your comment is the move to Utah part. LOL I about died... I would rather hang myself!
I'D miss you dearly. It took me over a year to make a friend in this ward. I have to admit that I have always looked up to you for your testimony in this ward, and it has helped me get through my tough times. I can't make you change your mind and I'm not really trying to. Just know that you have had a good influence on me and others in the ward and I will always appreciate that.
i love you all and thank you for your kind words.
Mary i would never stop coming i just might start in sunbeams and go all the way through primary again. Maybe I could be the loudest singer! LOL
So funny to read all of the statements on this one. I remember a time when I felt like quiting because of the same reason. My mom reminded me that this was my church and my religion and no one should get in the way of that. I continued to go and just kept thinking to myself, if anyone is going to leave it's not going to be me. ;) I am sorry you are going through this now. Next time we get together we need to talk. I'd love to hear all about it. :)
