I don't want to feel like I have to hide it. I want to be open and be able to post things on my facebook but I am absolutely scared of my dad and his family and how they are going to freak.

Actually, no one reacted particularly poorly now that I think about it. It was kinda awkward cause my mom still made me go to church afterward and my feelings weren't well concealed when I asked Sunday school teachers how a lion would eat grain even in an apocalypse. They all just kinda endured it. Mormons honestly are too nice, I should have been yelled at so many times.
