Yeah I gotta admit the religious trauma is deep. I wouldn’t be able to date anyone who was religious even if I was straight. Religion and homosexuality don’t mix well for most.

I was very open to my ex gf’s religion as she grew up really catholic and her family was very catholic. I was willing to be very accommodating whatever she needed, but she couldn’t bring herself to come out and had a lot of catholic guilt. She broke up with me before going home for the summer cause she didn’t want to hide me long distance. It sucked for me. I really don’t think people in that position should commit to queer relationships until they’re ready to prioritize or make sacrifices- pt1

Not saying she doesn’t deserve to date, I loved being with her. But she said she would come out before summer (for months) and I trusted her and was ready to support her through it. Then she didn’t and she really broke my heart. I hope she doesn’t (and don’t think she will) do that to anyone else, again. I think she knows she’s not ready for a queer relationships until she comes out to her family. Not only did she break my heart leaving me, but my heart broke for her and her situation.
