Hi people, I've been on the sub for a while now, mostly reading, but I'm quite anxious about this so I thought I might as well vent a bit with a group of people who could relate to the situation.

So, I (27M) have been out of the church for about a decade, but my family doesn't officially know it yet, I seriously doubt they haven't put 2 and 2 together, but they always seem to have it in their minds that I'm in (asking me to pray when we eat, inviting me to church events, etc.).

Yesterday, I was visiting my mom, mostly to catch up on life, and at one point my phone connected to her car's Bluetooth and started playing a Mormon Stories Podcast episode I was listening to earlier that day, specifically an LDS Discussions episode about race in the BoM, which could be particularly sensitive to her since we are Mexicans, so we were raised "knowing" we are lamanites.

Since that happened, I've been wondering when the lecture will come, specially since I was out of the car helping her park, so I don't even know exactly how much of the episode she heard, nothing has happened, but I just can't shake the feeling a good ol' lecture is headed my way.

Anyways, just wanted to vent a bit, if you made it this far, thanks for reading.
