What is good way to go about leaving the Mormon church without losing friends?

Sorry but you gonna have to prioritize yourself on that one. Forget friends. If they are good friends they will stay in touch anyway. My advice is when you leave take a couple of months to be alone. And find yourself. Then recontact a few people who won't try to get you back in.

I don't know if there is. If they do end their friendship with you, then it's for one of two reasons. The first is that they were never really friends to begin with. The second is that they feel a genuine sense of betrayal. Let each of them alone. The first group doesn't matter and the second needs time to process.

Just like any other cult, it doesn't allow you to leave without sacrificing your personal relationships. It wields the human desire for companionship and belonging as a sword against those who try to get off the plantation.

Of they don’t stay friends with you for you being you then they aren’t worth knowing. People show their true colors when we make difficult decisions in life. They either stick with you or show you how vile they have been all along.

Summon a satanic demon, it will tell you what to do.
