A little over a year ago I joined this site and made a post about how rough of a year it had been since leaving the faith. I had lost my marriage of 14 years because he rejected me when I came out as skeptical of the faith. He dragged the divorce out and made it all really hard and tried to make me feel guilty about breaking up the family. We have 3 kids. But this post isnβt a sad story. Iβm here to share that 3 months ago I found a wonderful man that accepts me for who I am. The kids love him and they are thriving. There is life after religion and if you are where I was a year ago keep pressing on. You will find people that accept the new you!
My story is quite similar. My wife divorced me when I left the Moron Crutch (Mormon Church), but several years later I found a fellow atheist to whom I am now happily married.
Good for you...thanks for sharing that personal good news story. It makes a lovely change from some of the whingeing and self-pitying ones weβve had to wade through this morning!
Lol
THIS!!!! This is awesome!!!! Also please remember that in the end there is only one person that has to accept us...that is ourselves. Be true to yourself!!
Thanks for taking the time to share your encouragement.
Do you, f*** him
That's pretty crass of you, and there's no need to be a horse's ass! The details of her relationship with the man she now loves ain't none of your cotton pickin' business!! She's happy again and her children love him too, is all that you need to know!

IMHO I think what Uncle tried to say is:
Do you. Yourself. Youβre the most important. Who cares about him. Just good on you. Then he said, βF*ck him.β Meaning who cares about him or what he does, thinks, or feels. IMHO
@Annabelle95991 I think youβre right however when you first look at it you think he is asking her do you have sex with him?
@Annabelle95991
It doesn't look that way to me at all, even if the comma is replaced a period.
It means, do you fuck with his head. I guess that I wasn't clear enough.
What a Blessed story! Praise the Lord!
And pass the ammunition.
Hoping your Next Year to be Better and Better!
Congratulations Lisa! I hope you have a long happy life.
If religion was his reason for leaving you and your family then your the better person for standing up and being open about who and what you are. I know a lot of Fundamentalists who try and enforce this.
