I (20F) recently got a job, and befriended one of my coworkers (30-40F).
She’s super friendly and likes to have conversations. She told me about a good store in town that sells cheap food, and said she’ll teach me how to cook. She said I have to learn to cook if I want a husband, and kind of made fun of me when I said my boyfriend (20M) cooks for me.
We were talking, and she asked which church I went to, and I said I’ve never been inside a church since I was raised atheist. She looked horrified and said I should come to her church next week.
I don’t really want to go to church because I want to stay home and relax on weekends since I’m an introvert, and I’m not Christian so I’m not sure if the people there would accept me. I said I’m free on weekends so I can’t use the “I’m busy” excuse, and just saying no feels rude. I feel like all my other coworkers would look down on me if I don’t go to church.
I also feel bad because she’s helping me get settled, so I feel like I have to accept her invitation.
