Ever since I deconverted 3-4 months ago I have used online forums to express my new self. I haven't said a word to any real life friends and have just been going with the flow. That way I can avoid all the drama but I feel like I'm not exactly free just yet. Maybe I can only be truly free in life once I start discussing the things I have discussed on here with the people around me in real life...
It's not possible to do both?
Well I said I'll be checking back once in a while. I just don't want to fully depend on this site when it comes to expressing myself. I need to try it out for real now and live the life that reflects who I really am now.

Only twice in my life has a theist said anything remotely hurtful via their faith but I understood why it was said I guess..
