UPDATE 6 months later. Meeting with an "elder"...

[OGOP]

Tell the elder what you really think

Oh I plan to.

But I'm also turning to the forum for suggestions. Anything y'all wish you could've asked if you were in my position. The brother Im planning to speak with is very high up in the LC "ranks".

You said "How can I get involved it the church life and make it seems genuine without falling into it" and "Any advice on "faking it"in the LC lol? "

OGOP, members of this forum and I do not see eye to eye on many things. However, I believe your request of them is completely inappropriate and insulting. Where did you get the impression that they would be willing to collude with you in deception?

I agree with Drake, but probably would have worded it differently.

I think the most important thing to focus on right now is your relationship with your Creator made possible through the blood of Jesus.

I appreciate that you were honest with your girlfriend to the point where she knows "exactly where you stand". But it sounds like you're looking to attempt to deceive her by saying that you hope to "make it seems genuine without falling into it". I know you qualified that statement in a later post, but this mentality is not fair to anyone. It sounds like you've experienced everything you need to understand the reality of the LSM.
