Most of them are a bunch of anti-abortionists, homophobes and racists. If I see a religious woman I find attractive, I remind myself she probably is against homosexuality and same-sex marriage and against abortion.

I'd be better able to tolerate being single if I had friends I saw regularly and a close family that I got along with. But sadly I do not. Another day spent in a stupor. I'm like a heroin addict on the nod all day in isolation. Hell, I might as well turn to heroin to escape. But needles make me freak out.

My view is that its full of cowards. Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time..
To be fair, I know many who regularly go to church, temple, etc. Damn fine people!
Ooooo! Me! Me! I'm one of those!
In fairness, I know what Rob means as Christians can be some of the most judgmental people, but sweeping statements both ways aren't helpful either. (No, I'm not cracking on you, Rob.)
We're Methodist. Methodists are those who kind of don't fit into the mold. I grew up Catholic and was Baptist for most of my life. For me and my family, neither is a particularly good fit. (Not here to bash religions or people here who might be either.) For us and our place of worship, we find "Open Hearts. Open Minds. Open Doors," a great fit for us. I won't go into the latest struggles with the umbrella over Methodists, but separate churches (we being one) are so thrilled to have anyone come to worship with us. We are accepting of all and we are a safe place. We are a safe church family to confide in and the outreach we do to help the hurt, hungry and those in need without judgment truly speaks to the Methodist motto.
But back to thread integrity, religion and those who beat you upside the head with bibles and opinions can definitely cause anxiety. I get that. I really do.
Sorry i didnt mean to offend anyone. I was thinking of lyrics and how it fit M. and matts case Im not religious at all so may of come across rude. Sorry all.

No offense taken at all. No worries. Religious folks can be terrible.
I don't care if someone is religious. Just don't shove it down people's throats like most people I know do, including my mother.
The religious (not all but many) demonise gay people which pisses me off. I have my views on religion which I'll keep to myself unless someone wants to know.

Thank you for sharing...I know a few church going folks who definitely walk the talk... live and love and make community happen in a good way...we would be poorer without them...
My art teacher is hosting. I don't know most of the people attending. My anxiety level is through the roof. I wish I said yes to that anti anxiety drug the psychiatrist recommended.

It was okay. Was freaked out by so many strangers. I mainly hung around students in my class.
That’s good! You didn’t back out and you went, mark that as a step in the right direction! It’s normal to stick to people you know, I‘d do the same. Were you able to do some conversation with them?
Hey, yeah. I invited myself to their group chat. I almost didn't go today.
Excellent. Keep it going, even if it seems awkward or tough sometimes. You‘ll get more comfortable with time and practice. Have you asked your best friend or some of your older friends to catch up? Or you could go see a band in a pub? This task may seem daunting but you’ve just made a very important first step!
I have not asked as my best friend said we will catch up when he finishes work for the year. I feel like I'll be pressuring him by asking. Plus he's busy being a new dad.
My other friends I have to ask. One asked if I wanted to come over to record 2 songs. I said yes but it hasn't happened yet.
I've gone to see bands alone a number of times so this doesn't bother me as everyone is there to see a band not socialise.
Seeing my friends like 2 or 3 times a year sucks.

I want you guys who suffer to know what its meant to have this page in my life. Ive come here and only here because nobody is nasty and nobody judges me here. If im not here probably means things got too much or its over. I wish you all peace and the ability to fly high in the sky. Go for what makes your heart sing. Whilst i was able i did that. All i can cling to is at least i had my day in the sun.

Just checking in to say hello and I love you to everyone on here. Holidays can be rough and I just wanted everyone who reads this to know you have a community that cares about you. If you don't have anyone else to talk to at least we have this board.
Be safe , be health , be strong. There is hope and light at the end of the tunnel no matter how long it may seem.
